Sigma-1 receptor (σ ₁R) has become a focus point of drug discovery for central nervous system (CNS) diseases. A series of novel 1-phenylethan-1-one O-(2-aminoethyl) oxime derivatives were synthesized. In vitro biological evaluation led to the identification of 1a, 14a, 15d and 16d as the most high-affinity (K _i < 4 nmol/L) and selective σ ₁R agonists. Among these, 15d, the most metabolically stable derivative exhibited high selectivity for σ ₁R in relation to σ ₂R and 52 other human targets. In addition to low CYP450 inhibition and induction, 15d also exhibited high brain permeability and excellent oral bioavailability. Importantly, 15d demonstrated effective antipsychotic potency, particularly for alleviating negative symptoms and improving cognitive impairment in experimental animal models, both of which are major challenges for schizophrenia treatment. Moreover, 15d produced no significant extrapyramidal symptoms, exhibiting superior pharmacological profiles in relation to current antipsychotic drugs. Mechanistically, 15d inhibited GSK3β and enhanced prefrontal BDNF expression and excitatory synaptic transmission in pyramidal neurons. Collectively, these in vivo proof-of-concept findings provide substantial experimental evidence to demonstrate that modulating σ ₁R represents a potential new therapeutic approach for schizophrenia. The novel chemical entity along with its favorable drug-like and pharmacological profile of 15d renders it a promising candidate for treating schizophrenia.

Objective:To compare the clinical characteristics of neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) patients with or without secondary subretinal fibrosis (SF).Methods:A retrospective case-control study. A total of 88 patients (92 eyes) diagnosed with nAMD at Department of Ophthalmology, Xiyuan Hospital of China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences from January 2020 to January 2024 were enrolled in this study. All eyes underwent best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), color fundus photography, and optical coherence tomography (OCT) examinations. BCVA was measured using the international standard visual acuity chart and converted to logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution for statistical analysis. SF area was measured on color fundus images. OCT was used to assess the presence of shallow irregular retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) elevation, RPE detachment, ellipsoid zone/external limiting membrane disruption, subretinal fluid and/or intraretinal fluid, thinning of the inner nuclear layer or inner plexiform layer, complete RPE and outer retinal atrophy (cRORA), epiretinal membrane, and suprachoroidal fluid. Device-integrated software measured central retinal thickness (CRT), subfoveal choroidal thickness (SFCT), and the height and width of subfoveal fibrosis in SF eyes. Based on the presence of SF, patients were divided into the SF group (47 eyes) and the non-SF (NSF) group (45 eyes). Baseline characteristics, OCT, and color fundus photography imaging features were compared between groups. Independent samples t tests were used for intergroup comparisons, and multiple linear regression was performed to analyze potential factors influencing SF height. Results:Compared with the NSF group, the SF group had a longer disease duration, longer symptom onset to initial treatment interval to receiving anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) drug treatment, a lower proportion of patients receiving 3 anti-VEGF drug injections within 6 months, worse BCVA, thicker SFCT, higher rates of pigment epithelial detachment and inner nuclear layer or inner plexiform layer thinning, and a lower rate of subretinal fluid ( P<0.05). No significant differences were observed in CRT or the proportions of irregular retinal pigment epithelia, ellipsoid zone/external limiting membrane disruption, cRORA, suprachoroidal fluid, or epiretinal membrane between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:nAMD eyes with secondary SF exhibit distinct OCT imaging features compared to NSF eyes.

OBJECTIVE： To provide reference for reasonable selection of tyrosine kinase inhibitors （TKI） in chronic myeloid leukemia （CML） patients with BCR-ABL35INS mutation. METHODS： Using “BCR-ABL insertional mutation” “ABL1 35ins mutation” “BCR-ABL c.1423_1424ins35” “ABL1 p.C475Tyrfs*11” as keywords， retrieved from CNKI， Wanfang database， Medline and COSMIC database， BCR-ABL35INS mutation CML patients were summarized and analyzed in respects of general information and treatment （treatment plan， patient compliance and drug withdrawal）， therapeutic effect （molecular biological mitigation and disease progress） and safety data （ADR） during 2007-2018. RESULTS： Totally 9 related literatures were included， involving 70 patients with BCR-ABL35INS mutation， all of them were foreign cases. Among them， 39 cases were male and 31 cases were female， with a median age of 49.2 years. The median time from the diagnosis of CML to the detection of BCR-ABL35INS mutation was 19 months. After detecting gene mutation， 39 cases were treated with imatinib （initial dose of 400 mg， po， once a day）， and molecular biological remission was achieved in 5 patients （12.9％）； 15 cases （38.5％） had molecular biological response but had disease progression； 8 patients （20.5％） had no response. Seventeen patients were treated with dasatinib （100 mg， po， once a day or 2 divided dose）， and 8 cases （47.1％） achieved molecular biological response. Twenty-one patients were treated with nilotinib （400 mg， po， 2 divided dose）， and 3 patients （14.3％） achieved molecular biological response； 2 patients achieved molecular biological response， but the disease progressed. Seven， three and seven of these patients stopped taking drugs due to adverse reactions， accounting for 17.9％， 17.6％ and 33.3％ respectively. All the ADRs were classified as grade 3-4 of the National Cancer Institute’s Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events， and most of them were hematological toxicity. CONCLUSIONS： CML patients with BCR-ABL35INS mutation are less likely to achieve molecular response on imatinib therapy but are more sensitive to dashatinib. In the course of treatment， we should strengthen the monitoring of blood system and other related indicators to ensure the safety and effectiveness of drug use.

A 19-day-old female neonate was treated with an IV infusion of meropenem 26 mg every 8 hours for neonatal clinical sepsis.Before the treatment, the newborn's neutrophil count (NEUT) was 1.0×109/L.On day 3 of administration of meropenem, the NEUT was 1.0×109/L.On day 4, meropenem dosage was increased to 52 mg every 8 hours to strengthen the anti-infective therapy.On day 8, the NEUT was 0.9×109/L.On day 16, the NEUT declined to 0.3×109/L.On day 20, her infection was under control, and meropenem was withdrawn.The results of reexamination 3 days later showed NEUT 3.3×109/L.

PURPOSE: The role of IL28B gene variants and expression in hepatitis B virus (HBV) infections are not well understood. Here, we evaluated whether IL28B gene expression and rs12979860 variations are associated with HBV outcomes. MATERIALS AND METHODS: IL28B genetic variations (rs12979860) were genotyped by pyrosequencing of DNA samples from 137 individuals with chronic HBV infection [50 inactive carriers (IC), 34 chronic hepatitis B (CHB), 27 cirrhosis, 26 hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)], and 19 healthy controls. IL28A/B mRNA expression in peripheral blood mononuclear cells was determined by qRT-PCR, and serum IL28B protein was measured by ELISA. RESULTS: Patients with IL28B C/C genotype had greater IL28A/B mRNA expression and higher IL28B protein levels than C/T patients. Within the various disease stages, compared to IC and healthy controls, IL28B expression was reduced in the CHB, cirrhosis, and HCC cohorts (CHB vs. IC, p=0.02; cirrhosis vs. IC, p=0.01; HCC vs. IC, p=0.001; CHB vs. controls, p<0.01; cirrhosis vs. controls, p<0.01; HCC vs. controls, p<0.01). When stratified with respect to serum HBV markers in the IC and CHB cohorts, IL28B mRNA and protein levels were higher in HBeAg-positive than negative individuals (p=0.01). Logistic regression analysis revealed that factors associated with high IL28B protein levels were C/C versus C/T genotype [p=0.016, odds ratio (OR)=0.25, 95% confidence interval (CI)=0.08-0.78], high alanine aminotransferase values (p<0.001, OR=8.02, 95% CI=2.64-24.4), and the IC stage of HBV infection (p<0.001). CONCLUSION: Our data suggest that IL28B genetic variations may play an important role in long-term development of disease in chronic HBV infections.
