ObjectiveBased on ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry（UPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS）， network pharmacology and molecular docking techniques， to explore the pharmacodynamic material basis and mechanism of Renshen Wuweizi Tang in treating spleen-lung Qi deficiency syndrome. MethodsThe chemical components in the decoction of Renshen Wuweizi Tang were systematically characterized and identified by UPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS， and network pharmacology was used to screen potential active ingredients， collect component targets and gene sets related to spleen-lung Qi deficiency syndrome， and obtain protein interaction relationships through STRING. Cytoscape 3.9.1 was used to construct a "formula-syndrome" association network and calculate topological feature values. Gene ontology（GO） function and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes（KEGG） pathway enrichment analysis were performed on core genes to explore potential pharmacodynamic links， the average shortest path between the formula-drug target network and the pharmacodynamic link gene network was calculated to discover dominant pharmacodynamic links， and MCODE plugin was used to identify core gene clusters from the dominant pharmacodynamic links， which were validated using Gene Expression Omnibus（GEO）， and molecular docking was performed between key components and core targets. ResultsOne hundred and thirty-seven components were identified in the negative ion mode， and eighty components were identified in the positive ion mode. After deduplication， a total of 185 components were identified， mainly composed of triterpenoid saponins（49） and flavonoids（54）. Based on the "formula-syndrome" correlation network analysis， energy metabolism was determined to be the dominant pharmacodynamic link of Renshen Wuweizi Tang in the treatment of spleen-lung Qi deficiency syndrome. The results of molecular docking showed that 7 components（adenosine， atractylenolide Ⅱ， atractylenolide Ⅲ， ginsenoside Rg₁， glycyrrhizin B₂， glycyrrhizin E₂ and campesterol） from 4 medicinal materials（Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma， Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma， Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma and Poria） in this formula might regulate energy metabolism by acting on 6 targets， namely cyclic adenosine monophosphate-response element binding protein 1（CREB1）， glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase（GAPDH）， interleukin（IL）-6， nuclear transcription factor（NF）-κB1， peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α（PPARα）， and tumor necrosis factor（TNF）， thus improving the symptoms of diseases related to spleen-lung Qi deficiency syndrome. ConclusionThis study established a UPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS for rapid characterization and identification of chemical components in the decoction of Renshen Wuweizi Tang， expanding the understanding of the material composition of this formula， and found that 7 components might act on the key advantageous pharmacodynamic link "energy metabolism" through 6 targets to improve the related symptoms of spleen-lung Qi deficiency syndrome. This can provide a reference for the subsequent exploration of the material benchmark and mechanism of the famous classical formula.

Objective:To understand the incidence rate of herpes zoster (HZ) and postherpetic neuralgia (PHN) in Beijing, and analyze the incidence trend of HZ and PHN from 2015 to 2022.Methods:Cases of HZ and PHN from 2015 to 2022 were retrieved from the Hospital Information Systems (HIS) of all primary and above hospitals/clinics in three districts representing the urban, inner suburban, and outer suburban areas of Beijing. After duplication screening, the first visit cases were screened, and the incidence characteristics were described. The incidence rate of HZ and PHN in each year by sex and age group and the age-standardized incidence rate were calculated. The annual percentage increase (APC) of incidence rate was calculated using the Joint regression model, and the change trend was analyzed.Results:The age-standardized incidence rate of HZ in Beijing from 2015 to 2022 ranged from 7.44‰ to 10.05‰, with an average annual incidence rate of 8.95 ‰, significantly increasing with age ( P<0.001). The Joinpoint regression model showed that the overall age-standardized incidence of HZ remained relatively stable, with no significant difference (APC=2.28%, t=1.56, P=0.170). However, the incidence rate among the 0-19-year-old group exhibited a trend of decrease (APC=-10.70%, t=-6.29, P<0.001). For PHN, the age-standardized incidence in Beijing ranged from 0.77‰ to 2.67‰, with an average annual incidence rate of 1.59‰ and a proportion of 9.48% to 26.86% among HZ cases. Both the incidence of PHN and its proportion among HZ cases increased with age ( P<0.001). The age-standardized incidence of PHN increased annually (APC=18.56%, t=9.02, P<0.001). Conclusion:The incidence rate of HZ and PHN in Beijing continues to be at a high level, and PHN shows an increasing trend over time.

Objective:To investigate the effect of curcumin on phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase/protein kinase B/mammalian target of rapamycin (PI3K/Akt/mTOR) pathway on the autophagy of Bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG)-infected macrophages.Methods:The infection model was established by infecting THP-1-derived macrophages with BCG. Five groups were involved in this study, which were control group, BCG group, BCG+ curcumin group, BCG+ curcumin+ IGF-1(PI3K agonist) group, and BCG+ curcumin+ LY294002 (PI3K inhibitor) group. The fluorescence intensity of autophagosomes was observed under fluorescence microscope using the fluorescent dye monodansylcadaverine (MDC staining). The expression of PI3K, Akt, mTOR, phospho-PI3K (p-PI3K), phospho-Akt (p-Akt), phospho-mTOR (p-mTOR), microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3-Ⅱ (LC3-Ⅱ), and Beclin-1 at protein level were detected by Western blot. Colony forming unit was used to detect macrophage load. Multiple independent, normal, and homogeneous data were compared using one-way analysis of variance, and pairwise comparisons were conducted using LSD test.Results:BCG infection significantly decreased the fluorescence intensity of autophagosomes, and the expression of autophagy marker proteins LC3-Ⅱ and Beclin-1 ( P<0.05), but increased the expression of p-PI3K, p-Akt, and p-mTOR ( P<0.05). Curcumin increased the fluorescence intensity of autophagosomes and enhanced the expression of LC3-Ⅱ and Beclin-1 proteins in a concentration-dependent manner ( P<0.05). Besides, curcumin inhibited the expression of p-PI3K, p-Akt, and p-mTOR ( P<0.05). The PI3K agonist IGF-1 reversed the above effects of curcumin. Compared with the BCG+ curcumin group, the fluorescence intensity of autophagosomes and the expression of LC3-Ⅱ and Beclin-1 proteins were further increased ( P<0.05), while the expression of p-PI3K, p-Akt and p-mTOR was further decreased ( P<0.05) in the BCG+ curcumin+ LY294002 group. Compared with the BCG group, the bacterial loads in the BCG+ curcumin group and the BCG+ curcumin+ LY294002 group decreased significantly ( P<0.05), while the bacterial load in the BCG+ curcumin+ IGF-1 group increased significantly ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Curcumin can promote the autophagy of BCG-infected macrophages, which contributes to the clearance of Mycobacterium tuberculosis by macrophages. Part of the mechanism may be related to the inhibition of PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway.

A positive correlation was observed between leisure crafting and post competency ( r=0.215, P<0.01). Conclusions:Managers should encourage anesthesia specialist nurses to actively engage in leisure crafting and provide diverse opportunities for leisure crafting to improve their post competence and ultimately the quality of anesthesia nursing.

The ribosomal protein S11(RPS11)from Enterococcus faecalis is was heterologously ex-pressed using the Pichia pastoris system.The RPS11 gene sequence was optimized to match the yeast codon preference,and the recombinant expression vector pPIC9K-RPS11 was constructed.Electroporation was used to transform the vector into the Pichia pastoris GS115 strain,and high-copy recombinant strains were selected through G418 resistance screening.Protein expression was induced with methanol,and the expression was verified by SDS-PAGE.The recombinant protein was applied in a mouse melanoma treatment model to evaluate its therapeutic effects.The results showed that the recombinant expression vector pPIC9K-RPS11 successfully expressed the target protein with an approximate molecular weight of 14 kDa in Pichia pastoris.The optimal fermenta-tion conditions were determined to be an induction temperature of 30 ℃,induction time of 72 h,and methanol concentration of 1％.Analysis using a mouse peritoneal macrophage trained immuni-ty model revealed that recombinant RPS11 possessed biological activity capable of inducing trained immunity.Additionally,therapeutic experiments in a mouse melanoma model demonstrated that recombinant RPS11 significantly inhibited tumor growth.These findings suggest that the recombi-nant RPS11 secreted by Pichia pastoris not only possesses biological activity in inducing trained immunity but also inhibits tumor cell growth in a mouse melanoma model,providing theoretical support for the heterologous expression and potential applications of recombinant RPS11.
