Human carboxylesterase 2A (hCES2A) plays pivotal roles in prodrug activation and hydrolytic metabolism of ester-bearing chemicals. Targeted inhibition of intestinal hCES2A represents a feasible strategy to mitigate irinotecan-triggered gut toxicity (ITGT), but the orally active, selective, and efficacious hCES2A inhibitors are rarely reported. Here, a novel drug-like hCES2A inhibitor was developed via three rounds of structure-based drug design (SBDD) and structural optimization. Initially, donepezil was identified as a moderate hCES2A inhibitor from 2000 US Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved drugs. Following two rounds of SBDD and structural optimization, a donepezil derivative (B7) was identified as a strong reversible hCES2A inhibitor. Subsequently, nine B7 carbamates were rationally designed, synthesized and biologically assayed. Among all synthesized carbamates, C3 showed the most potent time-dependent inhibition on hCES2A (IC₅₀ = 0.56 nmol/L), excellent specificity and favorable drug-like properties. C3 could covalently modify the catalytic serine of hCES2A with high selectivity, while this agent also showed favorable safety profiles, high intestinal exposure, and impressive effects for ameliorating ITGT in both human intestinal organoids and tumor-bearing mice. Collectively, this study showcases a rational strategy for developing drug-like and serine-targeting covalent inhibitors against target serine hydrolase(s), while C3 emerges as a promising orally active drug candidate for ameliorating ITGT.

Cervical spine health issues not only seriously affect patients' quality of life but also impose a heavy burden on the social healthcare system. Existing guidelines lack sufficient clinical guidance on lifestyle and work habits, such as exercise, posture, daily routine, and diet, making it difficult to meet practical needs. To address this, relying on the China Association of Chinese Medicine, Wangjing Hospital of China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences took the lead and joined hands with more than ten institutions to form a multidisciplinary guideline development group. For the first time, the group developed the Guidelines for Cervical Spine Health Intervention based on evidence-based medicine methods, strictly following the standardized procedures outlined in the World Health Organization Handbook for Guideline Development and the Guiding Principles for the Formulation/Revision of Clinical Practice Guidelines in China (2022 Edition). This proposal systematically explains the methods and steps for developing the guideline, aiming to make the guideline development process scientific, standardized, and transparent.

Interfering hepatitis B virus (HBV) capsid assembly holds promise as a therapeutic approach for chronic hepatitis B (CHB). Novel anti-HBV agents are urgently needed to overcome drug resistance challenges, with targeted protein degradation (TPD) emerging as a hopeful strategy. Herein, we report the first degradation of HBV core protein (HBC), a multifunctional structural protein, using small-molecule degraders developed by hydrophobic tagging (HyT) technology. Structure-activity relationship (SAR) analysis identified compound HyT-S7, featuring an adamantyl group, exhibiting potent inhibitory activity (EC₅₀ = 0.46 μmol/L, HepAD38 cells) and degradation ability (DC₅₀ = 3.02 ± 0.54 μmol/L) in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Mechanistic studies demonstrated that the autophagy-lysosome pathway was a potential driver of HyT-S7-induced HBC degradation. Remarkably, HyT-S7 effectively degraded 11 drug-resistant mutants, including highly resistant strains P25G and T33N, to Phase III drug GLS4. Furthermore, cellular thermal shift assay, surface plasmon resonance assay, and molecular dynamics simulations revealed the precise mode of HyT-S7 binding to HBC with the adamantyl group potentially mimicking protein misfolding to facilitate HBC degradation. This first proof-of-concept study highlights the potential of HyT-mediated TPD in HBC as a promising avenue for discovering novel HBV and other antiviral agents with favorable drug resistance profiles.

AIM To investigate the effects of rice wine type and wine processing method on chemical constituents and anti-coagulation effect of Angelicae sinensis Radix.METHODS Wine-washed products and wine-stir-fried products were prepared by different types and ages of rice wine,respectively,after which HPLC was adopted in the content determination of tryptophan,chlorogenic acid,vanillic acid,phthalic acid,ferulic acid,senkyunolide I,senkyunolide H,coniferyl ferulate and ligustilide,and PT,APTT,TT were detected in rabbit plasma.RESULTS Phenolic acids and volatile constituents demonstrated lower contents in the wine-stir-fried products than those in the raw product(P＜0.05),while those in the wine-washed products displayed no obvious changes(except for senkyunolide I)(P＞0.05).The contents of volatile constituents in the wine-washed products were higher than those in the wine-stir-fried products(P＜0.05).After being processed with dry rice wine,various constituents exhibited increased contents as compared with those after being processed with sweet rice wine(P＜0.05).Compared with the raw product,prolonged PT,APTT and TT were observable in the processed products prepared by 3-year semi-dry rice wine(P＜0.05).CONCLUSION The optimal rice wine type is determined to be 3-year semi-dry.Wine-washed Angelicae sinensis Radix shows high contents of ferulic acid and volatile constituents,whose activating blood and resolving stasis effect may be stronger.

Objective: To explore the risk of endometrial polyp (EP) based on lipid metabolism and vaginal micro- ecology combined with uterine volume line drawing model. Methods: 143 EP patients treated by hysteroscopic sur- gery were selected as the experimental group , and 113 healthy women were selected as the control group at the same time. The data were randomly divided into training set and validation set according to the ratio of 7 : 3. The clinical data of the two groups were collected and recorded , and t/χ2 test , LASSO regression and multifactorial lo- gistic regression analysis were used to screen the independent risk factors , construct the prediction model , and draw the column line graph. The performance of the model was evaluated by applying subject operating characteristic (ROC) curves , calibration curves , Hosmer-Lemeshow test and clinical decision-making (DCA) curves. Results: Multifactorial logistic regression analysis showed that total cholesterol ( TC) , low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) , vaginal microecological balance , and uterine volume were independent risk factors for the development of EP. ROC curve analysis showed that the AUC values of the training and validation sets of the column line graph model were 0. 935 and 0. 887 , respectively , and its sensitivity and specificity were 90. 21% , 83. 46% and 86. 29% , 80. 66% respectively , The Hosmer-Lemeshow test showed that the model fits well ( training set : χ2 = 2. 261 , P = 0. 840 ; validation set : χ2 = 4. 837 , P = 0. 441) and the calibration curves of the training and validation sets were close to the ideal curves , which indicated that the model had good prediction accuracy; the analysis of DCA curves of the training and validation sets both showed that the column-line graph model had a good clinical benefit rate in predicting EP. Conclusion TC , LDL-C , vaginal microecological balance and uterine volume are independent risk factors for EP , and the column-line diagram model constructed by the model has high clinical ben- efit , calibration and accuracy in predicting the risk of EP.

In this study,an ultraviolet(UV)/fluorescence dual-modal sensor was constructed by combining the catalytic properties of aldehyde dehydrogenase(ALDH)with the fluorescence inner filter effect of bovine serum albumin(BSA),realizing highly sensitive and highly selective detection of acetaldehyde in food.Acetaldehyde could react with oxidized coenzyme I(NAD+)to generate acetic acid and reduced coenzyme I(NADH)under catalytic condition by ALDH,and a quantitative relationship between acetaldehyde concentration and UV signal for UV detection based on the characteristic UV absorption peak of NADH at 340 nm was established.Meanwhile,an acetaldehyde detection channel based on fluorescence signal changes was built on the basis of the property that the fluorescence emission of BSA(as a fluorescent indicator)at 340 nm could be effectively quenched by the generated NADH,thus forming a″one-reaction dual-signal″detection mode.The experimental results showed that the acetaldehyde concentration in the range of 0.01?5.0 mg/L had a good linear relationship with both UV and fluorescence signals,and the limit of detection(LOD)was 0.003 mg/L for the UV mode and 0.005 mg/L for the fluorescence mode,and no significant fluctuations were observed when 50-fold concentrations of acetaldehyde analogs and common interfering substances were added.When the dual-modal sensor was applied to detection of acetaldehyde in food samples such as yogurt and wine,the relative error between its quantitative results and those of high-performance liquid chromatography(HPLC)was less than±4.0%.The dual-modal cross-validation strategy could improve the detection reliability through signal mutual verification,providing an innovative solution for the rapid detection of acetaldehyde contamination in food.

To analyze the prevalence, drug resistance and whole genome characteristics of Mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP) in respiratory throat swab samples of hospitalized children with pneumonia in Suzhou City from 2023 to 2024. Throat swab samples of hospitalized children aged 0-14 years old with pneumonia in Suzhou were collected from September 2023 to September 2024. Real-time fluorenscence quantitative PCR technology was used to detect MP nucleic acid. The results showed that the positive rate of MP in 3 235 samples was 22.44% (726/3 235), with a rate of 55.00% in week 47 of 2023. The positive rate of MP increased with age ( χ2=45.842, P<0.001). The study selected MP nucleic acid test positive samples from week 20 (5.13-5.19) to week 23 (6.3-6.9) of 2024 for isolation, culture and resistance phenotype detection. About 31 MP strains were successfully isolated and cultured, all of which were resistant to macrolides. The next-generation sequencing technology and nanopore sequencing technology were used for genome sequencing. All 31 strains carried the A2063G mutation, with the main prevalent genotype being the P1-1, and the main mlST type being the ST3. Despite the overall genomic similarity between strains being over 99%, there were significant differences between the P1-1 and P1-2 strains in the P1 gene region. In summary, from 2023 to 2024, the main MP type prevalent in Suzhou City is the P1-1 genotype. All isolated MP strains carry an A2063G resistance site mutation and are resistant to macrolides, requiring continuous monitoring and further research.
