ObjectiveTo investigate the possible mechanism of Pibai Yucuo Formula (枇柏愈痤方, PYF) in treating acne from the perspective of skin barrier damage. MethodsThirty-two mice were randomly divided into blank group, model group, minocycline group, and PYF group, with 8 mice in each group. Except for the blank group, mice were induced by intradermal injection of Cutibacterium acnes (C.acnes) combined with topical application of artificial sebum to establish acne model. The blank group and model group received intragastric administration of 0.2 ml of distilled water, while the PYF group received intragastric administration of 22.75 g/(kg·d)of PYF, and the minocycline group received 0.013 g/(kg·d)of minocycline suspension, all once daily for 5 consecutive days. On day 0 and day 6 of the experiment, the body weight of mice in each group was recorded, and the absolute value of the body weight difference during the experiment was calculated. Skin conditions were assessed with multifunctional skin imaging system on the 2nd, 4th and 6th day of the experiment. Skin barrier function indicators including transepidermal water loss (TEWL), and the water content of the stratum corneum and epidermis on day 0, 2, 4 and 6 of the experiment. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) was used to observe stratum corneum and skin thickness on the 1st, 3rd and 5th day of the experiment. Hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining was performed to observe histopathological changes, while ELISA was used to detect interleukin-17A (IL-17A) levels, and immunofluorescence staining was used to assess skin barrier-related proteins filaggrin (FLG) and loricrin (LOR) levels of skin lesions on day 6 of the experiment. ResultsCompared to the blank group, the model group showed a decrease in body weight on day 6, and an increase in the absolute value of the difference in body weight before and after the experiment (P<0.05). On day 4 and 6, TEWL values increased, while water content in the skin stratum corneum and epidermis decreased (P<0.05), accompanied by elevated IL-17A level and reduced immunofluorescence intensity of FLG and LOR proteins (P<0.05). The model group mice showed papules or pustules at the skin modeling site with progressively worsening desquamation under multifunctional skin imaging system. OCT revealed focal epidermal protrusions, blurred epidermal-dermal boundaries, and disorganized structural layers. HE staining showed significant epidermal hyperkeratosis and incomplete keratinization in the skin, with keratin plug formation in hair follicles and glandular lumens, thickened stratum corneum, hyperplasia of the stratum spinosum, as well as dense dermal inflammatory cell infiltration, and capillary dilation. Compared to the model group, both the minocycline group and the PYF group showed a reduced difference in body weight before and after experiment (P<0.05). On day 4 and 6, the TEWL value decreased, and water content of the skin stratum corneum increased (P<0.05); on day 6, the IL-17A level in the skin lesions decreased and immunofluorescence intensity of FLG and LOR proteins increased (P<0.05). On day 4 and 6, the severity of the skin lesions and range of redness and swelling were lighter than those in the model group, with reverted epidermal thickness, smoother surface and clearer epidermis-dermis boundary. HE staining showed that the degree of skin keratinization was reduced, and the inflammatory infiltration and vascular dilation in the dermis were improved compared to the model group. The PYF group showed better results than the minocycline group in reducing TEWL value on day 4 (P<0.05). ConclusionPYF may improve inflammation and skin barrier damage by downregulating IL-17A levels in lesion tissue and increasing skin barrier-related proteins, which could be one of the potential mechanism of action on acne.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of Huaban Jiedu Formulation (化斑解毒方, HJF) in treating psoriasis vulgaris with blood-heat syndrome. MethodsA randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study was conducted with 60 patients diagnosed with psoriasis vulgaris of blood-heat syndrome. Patients were randomly assigned to either a treatment group or a control group, with 30 cases in each. The treatment group received HJF granules orally, one dose a day, combined with topical Qingshi Zhiyang Ointment (青石止痒软膏), while the control group received placebo granules, one dose a day, combined with the same topical ointment. Both groups were topically treated twice daily of 28 days treatment cours. Psoriasis area and severity index (PASI), visual analogue scale for pruritus (VAS), traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndrome scores, dermatology life quality index (DLQI), and psoriasis life stress inventory (PLSI) were assessed before treatment and on day 14 and day 28. Response rates for PASI 50 (≥50% reduction) and PASI 75 (≥75% reduction), as well as overall clinical efficacy, were compared between groups. Serum levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and interleukin-17 (IL-17) were measured before and after 28 days of treatment. Adverse reactions during treatment were recorded. ResultsAfter 28 days of treatment, both groups showed significant reductions in PASI total score, lesion area score, erythema, scaling, and infiltration scores, pruritus VAS score, TCM syndrome score, DLQI, PLSI, and serum IL-6 and IL-17 levels (P<0.05). Compared to the control group, the treatment group had significantly greater improvements in PASI total score and erythema score, TCM syndrome score, serum IL-6 and IL-17 levels, and PASI 50 response rate after 28 days (P<0.05). Between-group comparisons of score differences before and after 28-day treatment revealed that the treatment group showed significantly better improvements in PASI total, lesion area score, erythema score, TCM syndrome score, DLQI, PLSI, and inflammatory markers (P<0.05 or P<0.01). The total effective rate on day 14 and day 28 was 40.00% (12/30) and 83.33% (25/30) in the treatment group, versus 6.90% (2/29) and 41.38% (12/29) in the control group, respectively. The clinical efficacy in the treatment group was significantly superior to that in the control group (P<0.05). Mild gastric discomfort occurred in 3 patients in the treatment group and 1 in the control group. ConclusionHJF can effectively improve skin lesions and TCM symptoms relieve pruritus, enhance quality of life, and reduce inflammatory markers IL-6 and IL-17, in patients with blood-heat syndrome of psoriasis vulgaris, with a good safety profile.

Objective:To analyze the efficacy and prognostic factors of fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy (FSRT) for patients with breast cancer brain metastases (BCBM).Methods:Medical records and follow-up data of BCBM patients who underwent FSRT in Cancer Hospital Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, Shenzhen Center and Shenzhen People's Hospital from August 2019 to May 2023 were collected. The R Studio platform of the R version 4.2.1 statistical software was applied to analyze patients' baseline characteristics, 1- and 2-year local brain control (LBC), overall survival (OS) and distant brain control (DBC) and corresponding median failure-free survival, draw survival curve using Kaplan-Meier method. Prognostic factors were screened by univariate analysis and multivariate analysis (Cox regression).Results:Cumulatively, 52 patients (163 metastases in total) had a median survival follow-up of 22.1 months, 83% were<60 years old. Molecular typing: 13 cases (25%) were positive for human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2+) / hormone receptor negative (HR-), 2 cases (4%) were luminal A, 26 cases (50%) were luminal B, and 11 cases (21%) were triple negative. The median number of brain metastases was 2 (range: 1 - 17). Follow-up outcomes: the median OS was 34.0 months, with 1- and 2-year OS rates of 85.6% and 65.4%, respectively; the median LBC was 20.6 months, with 1- and 2-year LBC rates of 79.2% and 45.2%, respectively; and the median DBC was 10.3 months, with 1- and 2-year DBC rates of 46.7% and 28.9%, respectively. During follow-up, 13 patients underwent salvage local therapy (10 FSRT); 5 developed radiation necrosis (1 symptomatic). Prognostic factor analysis: absence of extracranial organ metastases (compared with ≥3) was a protective factor for OS, P<0.05. For LBC, fewer (1 - 2) extracranial organ metastases (compared with ≥3), and single brain metastasis (compared with ≥2) were favorable prognostic factors , while N 3 staging upon initial diagnosis was a poor prognostic factor (all P<0.05). For DBC, brain metastasis after surgery was a good prognostic factor, while complicated with lung metastasis and asymptomatic brain metastasis at the first diagnosis were poor prognostic factors (all P<0.05). Conclusions:FSRT yields relatively good LBC and poor DBC for BCBM patients. A certain percentage of patients require salvage FSRT during follow-up, but OS is maintained acceptable and the radiation necrosis is tolerable. Among the prognostic factors, the absence of extracranial metastatic organs is a good prognostic factor for OS; patients with single brain metastasis, fewer extracranial metastatic organs, and non-N 3 staging upon initial diagnosis can obtain better LBC after FSRT.

Objective:To explore the effects of anlotinib on the proliferation, apoptosis, and migration of thyroid cancer cells, and investigate its role in inducing redifferentiation and enhancing iodine uptake capacity, providing a preliminary evaluation of its efficacy in tumor treatment.Methods:(1)The cell proliferation was detected by cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay, and different concentrations (0, 1/4 half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC 50), 1/2IC 50, IC 50) of anlotinib were used to treat CAL62 and FTC133 thyroid cancer cells for 24h. The clonogenic formation experiment, cellular activity and drug toxicity staining, scratch healing assay, and apoptosis in situ fluorescence staining were employed to assess cell clonogenicity, apoptosis, and migration abilities. (2) CAL62 and FTC133 cells were treated with various concentrations of anlotinib, and changes in the expression levels of iodine metabolism-related proteins (sodium/iodide symporter (NIS), thyroid peroxidase (TPO), and thyroid-stimulating hormone receptor (TSHR)) were detected using Western blot. (3) Iodine uptake experiments were conducted to observe changes in the iodine uptake functionality of thyroid cancer cells following treatment with different concentrations of anlotinib for 24 h. (4) The thyroid cancer xenograft nude mouse models were established and divided into control group (physiological saline), low-dose group (1mg/kg), medium-dose group (2mg/kg), and high-dose group (4mg/kg). Mice were treated with varying doses of the drug, the therapeutic effects and the changes in iodine harvesting function on tumors were evaluated. One-way analysis of variance was used for comparison among groups. Results:Anlotinib treatment resulted in significantly reduced cell viability, decreased clonogenic formation, increased apoptosis rates, and reduced scratch healing rates in CAL62 and FTC133 cells ( F values: 53.75-211.90, all P<0.001). After anlotinib treatment, the levels of iodine metabolism-related proteins (NIS, TPO and TSHR) significantly increased ( F values: 21.14-710.00, all P<0.001), and iodine uptake rates in thyroid cancer cells also increased significantly ( F values: 36.45, 32.34, both P<0.001). The nude mouse treatment experiment showed tumor growth in the anlotinib treatment group was inhibited, and tumors iodine uptake rates were increased, both were statistically significant ( F values: 74.09, 38.22, both P<0.001). Conclusions:Anlotinib can inhibit thyroid cancer proliferation and growth, promote apoptosis, reduce cell migration capabilities, induce thyroid cancer cells redifferentiation, and enhance iodine uptake capacity. Anlotinib can induce the redifferentiation of thyroid cancer at the animal level and has better efficacy.

All mice were treated for 14 d. Tumor volume and body mass changes of tumor-bearing mice were observed and recorded. After the treatment, 18F-FDG PET/CT was performed to evaluate the tumor′s uptake of 18F-FDG. Effects of 177Lu-PSMA-I&T combined with fluzoparib on cell and tumor-bearing mice were observed. One-way analysis of variance and the least significant difference t test were used to analyze the data. Results:At half maximal inhibitory concentrations (IC 50) of 177Lu-PSMA-I&T (13.06MBq/ml) and fluzoparib (72.13μmol/L), compared to the fluzoparib monotherapy group and the 177Lu-PSMA-I&T monotherapy group, the combination treatment significantly enhanced the anti-tumor effect on 22RV1 cells, inhibited the DNA synthesis rate and colony-forming ability of 22RV1 cells, reduced cell migration rate, increased the percentage of DNA damage, resulted in a higher proportion of cells arrested in the G2/M phase and increased the apoptosis rate ( F values: 9.77-162.20, t values: 2.98-21.60, all P<0.05). Compared to the fluzoparib monotherapy group and the 177Lu-PSMA-I&T monotherapy group, the combination treatment resulted in a significant reduction in relative tumor volume (RTV%) 14 d post-administration and markedly decreased 18F-FDG uptake ( F values: 25.28 and 67.42, t values: 4.64-8.61, P values: 0.001-0.009). Conclusion:The combination of 177Lu-PSMA-I&T and fluzoparib can inhibit prostate cancer cell proliferation and migration, suppress tumor growth and metabolism, and demonstrates synergistic effects more effectively.
