OBJECTIVE To investigate the targeting effect of folic acid-modified crebanine nanoparticles （FA-Cre@PEG- PLGA NPs， hereinafter referred to as “NPs”） combined with ultrasound irradiation on M109 cells in vitro and in vivo after administration， and explore the anti-tumor mechanism. METHODS CCK-8 assay was used to detect the inhibitory effect of NPs combined with ultrasound irradiation on the proliferation of M109 cells， and the best ultrasound time was selected. Using human lung cancer A549 cells as a control， the targeting of NPs combined with ultrasound irradiation to M109 cells was evaluated by free folic acid blocking assay and cell uptake assay. The effects of NPs combined with ultrasound irradiation on the migration， invasion， apoptosis， cell cycle and reactive oxygen species （ROS） levels of M109 cells were detected by cell scratch test， Transwell chamber test and flow cytometry at 1 h after 958401536@qq.com administration； the changes of mitochondrial membrane potential （MMP） were observed by fluorescence inverted microscope. A mouse subcutaneous tumor model of M109 cells was constructed， and the in vivo tumor targeting of NPs combined with ultrasound irradiation was investigated by small animal in vivo imaging technology. RESULTS NPs combined with ultrasound irradiation could significantly inhibit the proliferation of M109 cells， and the optimal ultrasound time was 1 h after administration. The free folic acid could antagonize the inhibitory effect of NPs on the proliferation of M109 cells， and combined with ultrasound irradiation could partially reverse this antagonism. Compared with A549 cells， the uptake rate of NPs in M109 cells was significantly higher （P＜0.01）， and ultrasound irradiation could promote cellular uptake. NPs combined with ultrasound irradiation could inhibit the migration and invasion of M109 cells and block the cell cycle in the G0/G1 and G2/M phases. Compared with control group， the apoptosis rate of M109 cells and ROS level were increased significantly （P＜0.01）， while the MMP decreased significantly （P＜0.01） in the different concentration （100， 200， 300 μg/mL） groups of M109 cells. Compared with the mice in non-ultrasound group， the fluorescence intensity and tumor-targeting index of the tumor site in the 0 h ultrasound group were significantly enhanced （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. CONCLUSIONS NPs combined with ultrasound irradiation have a strong targeting effect on M109 cells in vitro and in vivo， the anti-tumor mechanism includes inhibiting cell migration and invasion， blocking cell cycle， and inducing apoptosis.

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a disease caused by abnormal cloning of hematopoietic stem cells in the bone marrow, which leads to accumulation of a large number of abnormally differentiated myeloid cells. It is difficult to cure by traditional treatment. The successful application of chimeric antigen receptor T cell (CAR-T) immunotherapy indicates that the treatment of hematological tumors has entered a new stage of precision immunotherapy. However, CAR-T immunotherapy has been found to have many problems in clinical applications, including long treatment cycle, expensive prices, off-target effects, cytokine release syndrome, etc. Therefore, it is necessary to expand the application of CAR or adopt improved measures to enhance the therapeutic effect. This article reviews the new strategies for genetic engineering modification of CAR immune cells and the research progress and application of in situ programming to generate CAR-T, and besides, briefly introduces the new methods about the delivery of gene drugs in vivo, aiming to provide new ideas and theoretical basis for expanding and improving the application of precision immunotherapy in AML.

Objective To explore the mechanisms of Buyang Huanwu Decoction(BYHWD)in reducing oxidative stress levels to protect the blood-brain barrier(BBB)in cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury(CIRI)rats.Methods A middle cerebral artery occlusion/reperfusion(MCAO/R)model in rats was established via wire embolization method.PeriCam PSI laser speckle flow imaging was applied to detect whether the model was successfully established.Neurological deficits in the rats were evaluated by Zea Longa score,and histopathological changes in the rat brain were observed by HE staining.The degree of brain edema was detected by the dry and wet weight method.BBB permeability was detected by Evans blue staining,and ultrastructural changes to the BBB were observed by transmission electron microscopy.The levels of ROS,MDA and SOD activities,which are related to oxidative stress,were detected using kits.The expression levels of matrix metalloproteinase-9(MMP-9)were detected by immunohistochemical staining and Western blot.The expression levels of Occludin,ZO-1,and Claudin-5 tight junction proteins were determined via immunofluorescence and Western blot.Results BYHWD reduced neurological deficit scores,alleviated brain histopathological damage,alleviated BBB structural disruption,prolonged the appearance of dense regions in the tight junction structure,attenuated edema of the brain on the ischemic side,and reduced BBB permeability in MCAO/R rats.BYHWD decreased the levels of ROS and MDA,increased the activity of SOD,decreased the expression levels of MMP-9,and increased the expression levels of Occludin,Claudin-5 and ZO-1.Conclusions BYHWD can increase BBB tight junction protein expression levels,reduce the permeability of the BBB,protect the ultrastructure of the BBB,and reduce brain edema,and its mechanisms may be related to its antioxidant activity and inhibition of MMP-9 activation.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.
