Trastuzumab has improved survival rates in human epidermal growth factor receptor 2(HER2)-positive breast cancer(BC),but drug resistance leads to treatment failure.Natural killer(NK)cell-mediated antibody-dependent cell cytotoxicity(ADCC)represents an essential antitumor immune mechanism of trastuzumab.Traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)has been used for centuries to treat diseases because of its capacity to improve immune responses.Xianling Lianxia formula(XLLXF),based on the principle of"strengthening body and eliminating toxin",exhibits a synergistic effect in the trastuzumab treatment of patients with HER2-positive BC.Notably,this synergistic effect of XLLXF was executed by enhancing NK cells and ADCC,as demonstrated through in vitro co-culture of NK cells and BC cells and in vivo inter-vention experiments.Mechanistically,the augmented impact of XLLXF on NK cells is linked to a decrease in cytokine inducible Src homology 2(SH2)containing protein(CISH)expression,which in turn activates the Janus kinase 1(JAK1)/signal transducer and activator of transcription 5(STAT5)pathway.Collectively,these findings suggested that XLLXF holds promise for enhancing NK cell function and sensitizing pa-tients with HER2-positive BC to trastuzumab.

ObjectiveThis research focused on examining the distinctive characteristics of nutrient intake and dietary patterns among long-lived elderly individuals. Additionally, the study was aimed to explore the specific dietary components that may impact the skeletal muscle mass in this particular group. MethodsThis study was conducted in the Chongming area of Shanghai, China. A total of 206 long-lived elderly individuals aged 90 or above were recruited. The 3-day 24-hour dietary recall method was used to collect dietary information and general demographic data through face-to-face interviews with professional nutritionists. The skeletal muscle mass index(SMI) was measured by bioelectrical impedance analysis(BIA), and low skeletal muscle mass was diagnosed based on the 2019 Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia criteria. T-test analysis, chi-square test, and logistic regression were used to analyze the relationship between dietary nutrient intake and skeletal muscle mass. ResultsIn terms of food intake categories, compared with the long-lived elderly people with normal muscle mass, the intake of cereals containing miscellaneous beans and vegetables in the long-lived elderly people with low muscle mass was significantly lower(P<0.05). In terms of the nutrient intake, compared with the long-lived elderly people with normal muscle mass, the intake of total energy, carbohydrate, dietary fiber, vitamin D, folic acid, phosphorus, potassium, magnesium, iron, and manganese in the long-lived elderly people with low muscle mass was significantly lower(P<0.05). After continuous adjustment for the covariates, multivariate logistic regression analysis found that the intake levels of folic acid and dietary fiber were important factors influencing skeletal muscle mass, Individuals with lower intake levels of folic acid and dietary fiber are at a higher risk of low muscle mass in long-lived elderly individuals [ORfolic acid T1, dietary fiber T1 (95%CI): 2.90 (1.11‒7.61); 4.09 (1.53‒10.91)]. ConclusionThe consumption of cereals that include a variety of beans and vegetables was noticeably lower in the long-lived elderly individuals with lower muscle mass when compared to those with normal muscle mass. Furthermore, low levels of folic acid and dietary fiber intake are associated with an increased risk of low skeletal muscle mass.

Objective:To observe any effect of combining vibroacoustic therapy with audio-visual feedback on the swallowing and the emotional state of persons with a swallowing disorder after a brainstem stroke.Methods:Fifty brainstem stroke survivors with dysphagia were randomly divided into a control group and a combination group, each of 25. In addition to routine swallowing function training, the control group received additional direct feeding training, while the combination group was provided with vibroacoustic feeding training and swallowing stimulation from an animated audio-visual presentation. Before and after the treatment, the subjects′ swallowing function was quantified using the Standard Swallowing Assessment (SSA) scale and the Gugging swallowing screen (GUSS). The Positive and Negative Emotions Scale (PNAS) was used to quantify their emotional state.Results:After the treatment the average SSA scores of both groups had decreased significantly, while the average GUSS and PNAS scores had increased significantly. The average improvements in all three measures were significantly greater in the combination group than in the control group.Conclusion:In addition to routine swallowing function training, feeding training applying vibroacoustics and audio-visual stimulation can significantly improve the feeding function and emotional state of brainstem stroke survivors with dysphagia.

Human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER-2)-positive breast cancer has higher predilection to metastasize and invade other organs, leading to poor prognosis. The anti-HER-2 drugs, such as trastuzumab, pertuzumab, and trastuzumab emtansinehas, can remarkably prolong the disease free survival (DFS) of patients. However, frequent multidrug resistance, tumor recurrence and metastasis, and adverse reactions such as cardiotoxicity and gastrointestinal discomfort caused by adjuvant therapy are still challenges for the treatment of HER-2-positive breast cancer. The understanding of breast cancer in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has a long history. In thousands of years of inheritance and innovation, a standardized treatment system with TCM characteristics has been gradually formed, which shows unique advantages and significant curative effects in breast cancer treatment. The treatment principles of ''treatment based on syndrome differentiation'', ''treatment based on stages and types'', ''treatment according to individual conditions'', and ''treatment of different viscera and viscera based on the toxin and pathogen'' are closely related to the precise treatment concept. In view of the challenges in the treatment of HER-2-positive breast cancer, such as multidrug resistance, tumor recurrence and metastasis, cardiotoxicity, and gastrointestinal discomfort, this paper summarizes the characteristics of TCM in reversing the multidrug resistance, inhibiting tumor recurrence and metastasis, prolonging DFS, improving prognosis, reducing adverse reactions caused by adjuvant therapy, and improving the quality of life after breast cancer surgery according to the principles of reinforcing healthy Qi and eliminating pathogen, and treatment based on syndrome differentiation. This article is expected to serve as a reference for TCM treatment of HER-2 positive breast cancer.

N-Acetylcysteine (NAC) protects rats administrated with gadolinium-based contrast agents from renal injury, however, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear.A 1H NMR-based metabolomics approach coupled with OPLS-DA (orthogonal projection to latent structure with discriminant analysis) was used to analyze the effect of NAC on urinary metabolic changes for Chronic Renal Failure Rats administrated with Gd-DTPA (Gd-Diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid).Combined with univariate analysis of integral area, the significantly changed metabolites were selected to screen out the potential metabolic disturbances that induced by Gd-DTPA and NAC.These researches may attribute to study of the protective effect of NAC from renal failure induced by gadolinium-based contrast agents.The disturbance of energy metabolism, urea cycle and kynurenine metabolism were observed from the CRF group.Gd-DTPA caused the reduction of urinary choline, TMAO, o-HPA, p-HPA, hippurate, glycine, nicotinate and taurine accompanied with the elevation of allantoin.Metabonomic recovery in the NAC group was observed, which implied that NAC protects rats with chronic renal failure from Gd-DTPA induced disturbances of gut microbiota metabolism, liver mitochondria metabolism and kynurenine metabolism.The replenishment of glutathione in cells and the recovery of urea cycle that caused by NAC may protect rats from oxidative damage and renal injury.
