Osteoporosis is a prevalent skeletal condition characterized by reduced bone mass and strength, leading to increased fragility. Buqi-Tongluo (BQTL) decoction, a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) prescription, has yet to be fully evaluated for its potential in treating bone diseases such as osteoporosis. To investigate the mechanism by which BQTL decoction inhibits osteoclast differentiation in vitro and validate these findings through in vivo experiments. We employed MTS assays to assess the potential proliferative or toxic effects of BQTL on bone marrow macrophages (BMMs) at various concentrations. TRAcP experiments were conducted to examine BQTL's impact on osteoclast differentiation. RT-PCR and Western blot analyses were utilized to evaluate the relative expression levels of osteoclast-specific genes and proteins under BQTL stimulation. Finally, in vivo experiments were performed using an osteoporosis model to further validate the in vitro findings. This study revealed that BQTL suppressed receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL)-induced osteoclastogenesis and osteoclast resorption activity in vitro in a dose-dependent manner without observable cytotoxicity. The inhibitory effects of BQTL on osteoclast formation and function were attributed to the downregulation of NFATc1 and c-fos activity, primarily through attenuation of the MAPK, NF-κB, and Calcineurin signaling pathways. BQTL's inhibitory capacity was further examined in vivo using an ovariectomized (OVX) rat model, demonstrating a strong protective effect against bone loss. BQTL may serve as an effective therapeutic TCM for the treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis and the alleviation of bone loss induced by estrogen deficiency and related conditions.

AIM:To investigate the effect of Bushen formulae(BHF)on bone metabolism and its possible mechanism in ovariectomized rats with high salt intake.METHODS:According to the random number table method,80 SPF-grade Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into sham group,ovariectomy(OVX)group,medium-high-salt diet(MSD)group,high-salt diet(HSD)group,BHF group,BHF with normal saline(BHF+NS)group,BHF+MSD group,and BHF+ HSD group,with 10 rats in each group.After modeling,different diets and BHF formula interventions were administered,and the concentrations of sodium chloride added to MSD group and HSD group were 2%(w/w)and 8%(w/w),respective-ly.The dose of BHF was 7.8 g·kg-1·d-1,once a day,and the treatment lasted for 12 weeks.Bone density,bone microar-chitecture,bone parameters,bone metabolism biomarkers,bone histopathological changes,the expression of epithelial sodium channel α(ENaCα),Na-Cl cotransporter(NCC),and voltage-gated chloride channel 3(ClC-3)proteins in bone tissue were detected in each group.RESULTS:Compared with sham group,the rats in OVX group had reduced bone density and destroyed bone microstructure.Compared with OVX group,the bone microstructure in MSD and HSD groups was more significantly damaged,while the levels of bone formation markers,bone glycoprotein(BGP)and type Ⅰ procolla-gen N-terminal peptide(PINP),were significantly increased in HSD group(P<0.05).Moreover,the levels of bone re-sorption markers,such as amino-terminal cross-linked telopeptides of type Ⅰ collagen(NTX),carboxy-terminal cross-linked telopeptides of type Ⅰ collagen(CTX)and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase(TRACP),were significantly in-creased(P<0.05),indicating that bone metabolism was in high-conversion state.High-salt diet accelerated the structural destruction of bone trabeculae,and Western blot results showed that high-salt diet caused decreases in the protein expres-sion levels of ENaCα and ClC-3 and an increase in the protein expression level of NCC in femoral tissues(P<0.05).After BHF intervention,the expression of relevant ion channels caused by high salt could be regulated to different degrees.CONCLUSION:Bushen formulae could differentially regulate the expression of relevant ion channels ENaCα,ClC-3,and NCC induced by high salt to different degrees,which has certain ameliorative and therapeutic effects on the imbalance of bone metabolism.

Acute cerebral infarction(ACI)has the characteristics of onset nasty and high mortality,and thus the rapid determination of the occurrence and development of ACI plays a key role in the diagnosis,treatment and prognosis of ACI patients.It has shown that the serum level of human haptoglobin(Hp)is related to ACI.In this study,surface enhanced Raman scattering(SERS)combined with immune recognition was applied to establish a quantitative analysis method for serum Hp.Firstly,the SERS substrate of silver nanoparticles was prepared on silicon wafer,and 4-mercaptobenzoic Acid(MBA)was used as a Raman probe by forming Ag—S bond and connecting it on the surface of nanoparticles.The carboxyl group of MBA was linked to amino group of self-made high-affinity antibody through forming CO—NH structure thus forming a SERS self-assembled chip of Hp(Ag/MBA/anti-Hp).Hp in serum could be specifically captured by antibodies on SERS substrate,which caused the shift of SERS characteristic peak of MBA.The results showed that there was a good linear relationship between the logarithm of Hp concentration and the SERS characteristic peak shift of MBA.The detection range was 1-1000 ng/mL(R2=0.988).The Hp concentrations in serum of 90 ACI patients were determined by this method,and the results were consistent with those of ELISA method,which proved the practicability and accuracy of this method.This method was highly specific,simple and convenient,which could realize the specific recognition and quantitative analysis of serum Hp,so as to be an effective means for clinical detection of serum Hp,thus providing a reference for the treatment and prognosis of ACI.

Chronic prostatitis is a common and frequently occurring disease in male clinics. Due to the diverse symptoms， complex etiology， unclear mechanisms， and recurrent episodes of chronic prostatitis， Western medicine often faces the challenge of limited treatment options and unsatisfactory outcomes. In order to fully leverage the unique advantages of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） in the treatment of chronic prostatitis， the China Association of Chinese Medicine organized a discussion among experts from the fields of TCM urology， Western urology， and related pharmacy. The experts focused on the advancements in the understanding of chronic prostatitis in modern medicine， various theories on the etiology， pathogenesis， and treatment of chronic prostatitis in TCM， entry points from interdisciplinary fields， the role and advantages of TCM in the comprehensive management of chronic prostatitis， and research into mechanisms related to chronic prostatitis. After discussions， the experts concluded that chronic prostatitis is one of the diseases where TCM has a distinct advantage. TCM can effectively improve the clinical syndromes of chronic prostatitis， including urinary issues， social psychology， organ specificity， infection， nervous system problems， pain and discomfort， sexual dysfunction， etc.， and can enhance the quality of life. For patients with chronic prostatitis who cannot tolerate or may not accept the adverse effects of Western medicine， as well as for those with non-inflammatory chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome （CP/CPPS）， those with pain as the primary symptom， those with urinary tract symptoms， those with coexisting anxiety and depression， and those with abnormal semen liquefaction， TCM-based treatment can be the main approach. Currently， the optimal diagnosis and treatment strategy for chronic prostatitis has not yet been established， and further research from perspectives such as clinical epidemiology， evidence-based medicine， and molecular biology is needed. Both TCM and Western medicine should integrate their respective strengths， clarify the role and advantages of TCM interventions based on mutual reference， and improve the diagnosis and treatment standards for chronic prostatitis in China.

Objective This study utilized bioinformatics to investigate the role of secreted phosphoprotein 1(SPP1)in tumors and assess its differential expression and prognostic significance across human cancers.Method Cancer sample data was sourced from the Cancer Genome Atlas(TCGA)and Genotype-tissue Expression(GTEx)database.Analysis of gene expression differences in pan-cancer involving SPP1 utilized the CPTAC database,correlations between SPP1 and patient survival outcomes were assessed using GEPIA2,and alterations in gene mutations for SPP1 across 32 cancers were appraised via the CbioPortal tool.Results Across 32 tumor types,SPP1 mRNA disparity is observed in eight cancer types,decreasing only in clear cell renal carcinoma while increasing in other malignancies.Expression in tumor stage is specific;SPP1 mRNA negatively correlates with patient overall survival(OS)and disease-free survival(DFS);low methylation associated with SPP1 gene activity promotes oncogene activation,impacting tumor cell generation,apoptosis,and proliferation,thereby influencing cancer progression;SPP1 primarily exhibits missense mutations that correlate with poor prognoses in prostate and stomach cancer patients.Conclusion Through pan-cancer studies,SPP1's selective expression in human malignancies was validated and found to be strongly correlated with clinical prognosis.This suggests that SPP1 is a viable target for cancer prognostic precision.

Objective To utilize bioinformatic approaches to elucidate the correlation between secreted phosphoprotein 1(SPP1)and immune infiltration in various malignancies,elucidating the mechanism of gene function in cancer-immune cell interplay.Methods Cancer samples were derived from the Cancer Genome Atlas(TCGA)and Genotype-tissue Expression(GTEx)database,examining SPP1 expression difference between tumors and normal tissues using Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis(GEPIA2),and its correlation with different immune cells in extracellular matrix via TIMER2 Database.SPP1's association with interacting molecules was scrutinized on the STRING website,followed by assessment of its distinct functional state across various cancers from Cancer Single-cell State Atlas Database(Cancer SEA).Results In 32 tumor types,SPP1 mRNA is significantly elevated in 23 types of cancers and correlates heavily with fibroblast,integrin family,and CD44.Furthermore,the SPP1 gene exhibits profound specificity in tumor functions such as vascular invasion,metastasis,DNA damage,and repair.Conclusion Specific expression of SPP1 in tumors signifies a significant correlation with tumor immune cells in the extracellular matrix,promoting tumor progression and invasion.This suggests that targeted monitoring of SPP1 could serve as a prospective cancer diagnostics/therapeutics biomarker.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the application of surgical strategies for the treatment of cervical ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL) involving the C ₂ segment. METHODS: The literature about the surgery for cervical OPLL involving C ₂ segment was reviewed, and the indications, advantages, and disadvantages of surgery were summarized. RESULTS: For cervical OPLL involving the C ₂ segments, laminectomy is suitable for patients with OPLL involving multiple segments, often combined with screw fixation, and has the advantages of adequate decompression and restoration of cervical curvature, with the disadvantages of loss of cervical fixed segmental mobility. Canal-expansive laminoplasty is suitable for patients with positive K-line and has the advantages of simple operation and preservation of cervical segmental mobility, and the disadvantages include progression of ossification, axial symptoms, and fracture of the portal axis. Dome-like laminoplasty is suitable for patients without kyphosis/cervical instability and with negative R-line, and can reduce the occurrence of axial symptoms, with the disadvantage of limited decompression. The Shelter technique is suitable for patients with single/double segments and canal encroachment >50% and allows for direct decompression, but is technically demanding and involves risk of dural tear and nerve injury. Double-dome laminoplasty is suitable for patients without kyphosis/cervical instability. Its advantages are the reduction of damage to the cervical semispinal muscles and attachment points and maintenance of cervical curvature, but there is progress in postoperative ossification. CONCLUSION OPLL involving the C ₂ segment is a complex subtype of cervical OPLL, which is mainly treated through posterior surgery. However, the degree of spinal cord floatation is limited, and with the progress of ossification, the long-term effectiveness is poor. More research is needed to address the etiology of OPLL and to establish a systematic treatment strategy for cervical OPLL involving the C ₂ segment.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of LncRNA GAPLINC on the cell proliferation of RA-FLSs. MethodsRA-FLSs were cultured from synovial specimens. The expression of LncRNA GAPLINC in RA-FLSs and trauma-FLSs groups was detected by qRCR. GAPLINC suppression was transfected by siRNA and the inhibition efficiency was detected by qRCR. Flow cytometry was adopted to determine the change of cell growth and cell cycle distribution. 【ResμLts】 The expression of LncRNA GAPLINC was significantly higher in RA-FLSs than that of the trauma-FLSs （P<0.05）.Transfection of GAPLINC-siRNA significantly decreased the expression of LncRNA GAPLINC. GAPLINC silence in RA-FLSs revealed significant inhibition in cell proliferation which was showed by the reduced cell number in S phase（P<0.05）. Moreover， flow cytometry assay showed GAPIINC-siRNA treatment group had an accumμLation of cells in the G0/G1 phase and decreased RA-FLSs in the S and G2/M phase（P<0.05）. After GAPLINC knockdown， mRNA and protein levels of Cyclin D1 and PCNA， which were positively correlated with proliferative phenotype， were decreased （P<0.05）， while p21， which was negatively correlated with proliferative phenotype， was up-regμLated （P<0.05）. ConclusionsThe mRNA expression of GAPLINC was higher in RA-FLSs compared with trauma-FLSs ，which was statistically significant（P<0.05）. The silence of LncRNA GAPLINC coμLd significantly inhibit RA-FLSs cell growth and suppress the cell cycle transformation， which suggests that GAPLINC may play a role in the regμLation of proliferation of RA-FLSs， leading to synovial hyperplasia and contributing to RA progression.
