Objective: To systematically review the effect of physical activity (PA) on health related quality of life (HRQoL) among children and adolescents and the magnitude of association, so as to provide an evidence based support for optimizing health promotion strategies for children and adolescents. Methods: Medline (PubMed), EMBASE, the Cochrane Library, SCIELO, PEDro, CNKI, Wanfang and VIP databases were searched to collect literature on PA and HRQoL in children and adolescents, which were published up to January 1, 2025. Cochrane ROB tool and specific evaluation system were used to assess literature quality, Stata 16.0 software was used for Meta analysis. For descriptive studies, correlation( r ) and 95% confidence interval( CI ) were used as effect indicators, and the inverse variance method was used to merge the data. Standardized mean difference( SMD ) and 95% CI were used to calculate the combined effect size of intervention studies. Results: A total of 22 studies involving 27 303 healthy children and adolescents were included, including 9 descriptive studies and 13 intervention studies. The results of descriptive analysis showed that PA level was positively correlated with HRQoL ( r =0.27, 95% CI =0.21-0.32, P <0.01). The analysis of intervention studies showed that PA had significant effects on overall HRQoL ( SMD =0.10, 95% CI =0.05-0.16), physical functioning ( SMD =0.16, 95% CI =0.08-0.23), and mental functioning ( SMD =0.17, 95% CI =0.10-0.25)( P <0.01). Subgroup analysis found that the effects of physical activity on overall HRQoL, physiological function, and psychological function in children and adolescents were maximized when the intervention duration was less than 6 months ( SMD =0.13, 0.18, 0.20), the frequency was≥5 times per week ( SMD =0.13, 0.19, 0.24) and there was a supplementary plan( SMD =0.10, 0.18, 0.23)( P <0.01). Conclusion PA is an important factor affecting the HRQoL of healthy children and adolescents, and the systematic PA intervention has a effect on improving the HRQoL.

Microglial functions are linked to Ca²⁺ signaling, with endoplasmic reticulum (ER) calcium stores playing a crucial role. Microglial abnormality is a hallmark of Alzheimer's disease (AD), but how ER Ca²⁺ receptors regulate microglial functions under physiological and AD conditions remains unclear. We found reduced ryanodine receptor 2 (Ryr2) expression in microglia from an AD mouse model. Modulation of RyR2 using S107, a RyR-Calstabin stabilizer, blunted spontaneous Ca²⁺ transients in controls and normalized Ca²⁺ transients in AD mice. S107 enhanced ATP-induced migration and phagocytosis while reducing ramification in control microglia; however, these effects were absent in AD microglia. Our findings indicate that RyR2 stabilization promotes an activation state shift in control microglia, a mechanism impaired in AD. These results highlight the role of ER Ca²⁺ receptors in both homeostatic and AD microglia, providing insights into microglial Ca²⁺ malfunctions in AD.

Objective To investigate the role and related mechanisms of exosomes derived from mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in radiation-induced lung injury (RILI). Methods Human umbilical cord-derived MSCs were isolated and cultured for the extraction and identification of exosomes. Eighteen male SD rats were randomly divided into Control group, RILI group and RILI + exosomes group (EXO group), with 6 rats in each group. Except for Control group, the other groups received a single X-ray dose of 30 Gy to the right lung. Immediately after irradiation, the EXO group was administered 2 × 10⁹ exosomes/kg via tail vein injection. Control group and RILI group were given the same volume of normal saline. Eight weeks post-irradiation, the rats were sacrificed, lung tissue and peripheral venous blood were collected. HE and Masson staining were employed to observe the pathological and fibrotic changes of lung tissue. The levels of serum inflammatory factors IL-6, IFN-γ, TNF-α, and IL-10 were detected by ELISA. RT-qPCR was used to assess the mRNA levels of IL-1β, IL-6, Cdh1, and Col1a1 in lung tissue. The expression levels of Vimentin and TGF-β1 in lung tissue were measured by immunohistochemical staining. The expression levels of AMPK, p-AMPK, and TGF-β1 in lung tissue were detected by Western blot. Results MSC-derived exosomes were successfully extracted and identified. Compared with RILI group, EXO group showed significantly reduced pathological changes of lung inflammation and collagen deposition. The levels of serum inflammatory factors IL-6, INF-γ, and TNF-α were significantly decreased (P < 0.05), and the level of anti-inflammatory factor IL-10 was significantly increased (P < 0.05). The mRNA levels of IL-1β, IL-6, and Col1a1 in lung tissue were significantly decreased (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01), and the mRNA level of Cdh1 was significantly increased (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). The levels of Vimentin and TGF-β1 in lung tissue were significantly reduced, while p-AMPK level was significantly up-regulated (P < 0.05). Conclusion Exosomes derived from MSCs may alleviate RILI by inhibiting inflammatory responses and regulating epithelial-mesenchymal transition mediated by AMPK/TGF-β1 signaling pathway.

Objective:To identify and validate secreted effector proteins of Chlamydia psittaci ( C. psittaci) through bioinformatic prediction and experimental verification, and to characterize their subcellular localization in host cells. Methods:Potential effector proteins were predicted using bioinformatics tools. Candidate effectors were fused to β-lactamase through the constructed expression vectors, and these vectors were transformed into C. psittaci. The secretion of these candidate effectors was evaluated by β-lactamase translocation assays. Eukaryotic expression vectors of confirmed effectors were transfected into host cells to determine their intracellular localization patterns. Results:Bioinformatic analysis identified 29 candidate effector proteins. Experimental validation confirmed the secretion of five effectors, with four exhibiting cytoplasmic localization and one displaying nuclear localization in host cells.Conclusion:This study characterizes five novel C. psittaci secreted effector proteins, providing critical insights for investigating the molecular pathogenesis of psittacosis.

Objective To investigate the effect of miR-10a-5p downregulation on cisplatin(DDP)resistance in bladder cancer T24 cells and elucidate the underlying molecular mechanism.Methods Quantitative real-time PCR quantified the expression of miR-10a-5p in the cisplatin-resistant bladder cancer cell line T24/DDP and its parental cell line T24.T24/DDP cells were divided into control,inhibitor NC,miR-10a-5p inhibitor,miR-10a-5p inhibitor+si-NC,and miR-10a-5p inhibitor+si-Apaf1 groups.Different concentrations of DDP were administered for 24 h.Cell proliferative activity was detected using the MTT assay,and the drug resistance index was calculated.Apop-tosis was analyzed using flow cytometry.The protein expression levels of Apaf1,cleaved caspase-9,cleaved caspase-3,and cytochrome C(Cyt C)were analyzed using Western blotting.A dual-luciferase reporter gene assay confirmed the target binding relationship between miR-10a-5p and Apaf1.Results The expression of miR-10a-5p was significantly higher in drug-resistant T24/DDP cells than in parental T24 cells(P<0.05).Compared with the inhibitor NC group,the miR-10a-5p inhibitor group exhibited increased T24/DDP cells sensitivity to DDP,decreased drug resistance index,and elevated apoptosis levels.The protein expression levels of Apaf1,cleaved caspase-9,cleaved caspase-3,and cytoplasmic Cyt C proteins were upregulated in the miR-10a-5p inhibitor group compared with the inhibitor NC group(all P<0.05).The DDP sensitivity of T24/DDP cells was reduced in the miR-10a-5p inhibitor+si-Apaf1 group compared to the miR-10a-5p inhibitor+si-NC group,accompanied by an increase in the drug resistance index and a decrease in apoptosis(all P<0.05).The double-lu-ciferase reporter gene assay results confirmed that Apaf1 was a downstream target gene regulated by miR-10a-5p.Conclusion miR-10a-5p knockdown targeting the upregulation of Apaf1reversed DDP resistance in T24/DDP cells.

Objective:To establish graded forecast models of pollen concentration in spring and summer-autumn in northern China, based on long-term data of pollen and allergic rhinitis (AR) medical visits in 8 cities of northern China.Methods:Pollen concentration and the characteristics of AR patients from 8 cities of northern China, including Beijing, Baotou, Hohhot, Xi′an, Xining, Cangzhou, Liaocheng and Zibo, were analyzed. Spearman′s correlation was used to examine the relationship between pollen concentration and daily AR patient visits. A pollen concentration grading was establish, and a pollen forecast model was created using the eXtreme gradient boosting (XGBoost) algorithm. The model incorporated meteorological factors and the 3-day moving average of pollen concentrations.Results:The spring pollen period started early and lasted long in Beijing and Xi ′an, while the summer-autumn pollen period started earlier and persisted longer in Xining, Baotou and Hohhot. During summer-autumn pollen period, and the spring period in most cities (except Baotou and Cangzhou), average daily patient visits were significantly higher than those in non-pollen periods. A strong correlation was observed between daily AR patient visits and the 3-day moving average of pollen concentrations in both the spring and summer-autumn periods across all cities. Based on the correlation, a pollen concentration grading standard of northern China was established. The accuracy evaluation of pollen concentration prediction model showed that the percentage of forecasts with either completely accurate or within one level difference exceeded 91% in spring and 95% in summer-autumn. The most important predictive variable in the model was the pollen level from previous day, followed by the temperature and humidity.Conclusion:The grading prediction model for pollen concentration provides guidance for AR patients in term of travel, early defense and treatment, as well as the determining medication schedules for clinical drug research and specific immunotherapy.

Circular RNA(circRNA)is a single-stranded RNA with a covalently closed loop structure,which has a more stable structure and lower immunogenicity than linear RNA.Many studies have shown that circRNA has characteristics such as conservation,stability,and tissue specificity,and can act as a microRNA(miRNA)sponge to interact with proteins and translation templates,and regulate biological functions such as gene expression and signal transduction.Based on the characteristics and various bio-logical functions of circRNA,some endogenous circRNA plays an important regulatory role in the occur-rence and development of tumors and has the potential to be used as biomarkers and therapeutic targets.In addition,mRNA drugs have limitations such as instability,easy degradation,low translation efficien-cy,and immunogenicity in practical applications.Engineered translatable exogenous circRNA can solve some of the limitations of linear mRNA application and become a new type of potential efficient drug.In this paper,we introduce the circRNA biogenesis mechanisms,specific biological functions,and the cur-rent status of diagnosis and treatment applications in tumors.This includes the diagnostic application of endogenous circRNA in tumors,the design and synthesis strategies of exogenous circRNA,and the cur-rent progress in the design and application of engineered circRNA vaccines using their stable and efficient protein expression functions in the treatment of tumors.Finally,we discuss the current clinical diagnostic application problems of circRNA,the challenges of exogenous circRNA therapeutic applications,and the prospects of the field.
