ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of mitochondrial calcium uniporter （MCU） on the cytoskeleton of pancreatic ductal epithelial cells in a mouse model of acute pancreatitis （AP） induced by caerulein （CAE）， to analyze the role of MCU in the development of AP， and to provide a theoretical basis for clinical treatment. MethodsIn the in vivo experiment， wild-type male C57BL6/J mice， aged 4 weeks， were randomly divided into control group and AP group， with 6 mice in each group. The mice in the AP group were given intraperitoneal injection of CAE to establish a model of AP， and those in the control group were given intraperitoneal injection of an equal volume of normal saline. Serum and pancreatic tissue samples were collected after 24 hours of modeling. HE staining was used to observe pancreatic histopathological changes； Western Blot was used to measure the expression levels of MCU， glutathione peroxidase 4 （GPX4）， and acyl-CoA synthetase long chain family member 4 （ASCL4）； kits were used to measure the serum level of amylase. In the in vitro experiment， the human pancreatic ductal epithelial cell line HPDE6-C7 was co-cultured with CAE for 24 hours to establish an in vitro AP model， and the cells were divided into control group， CAE group， RR （an MCU activity inhibitor） group， CAE+RR group， Fer-1 （an ferroptosis inhibitor） group， CAE+Fer-1 group， Erastin （an ferroptosis inducer） group， and CAE+Erastin group. CCK-8 assay was used to observe the influence of different agents on cell viability； Western Blot was used to measure the expression levels of MCU， GPX4， and ASCL4； immunofluorescence assay was used to measure reactive oxygen species （ROS）， actin cytoskeleton， and monolayer permeability； kits were used to measure the concentrations of malondialdehyde （MDA）， glutathione （GSH）， Fe²⁺， and total iron. A one-way analysis of variance was used for comparison of continuous data between multiple groups， and the least significant difference t-test was used for comparison between two groups. ResultsIn the in vivo experiment， compared with the control group， the AP group had significant increases in pancreatic histopathological score， the serum level of amylase， and the expression levels of MCU and ASCL4， as well as a significant reduction in the expression of GPX4 （all P<0.05）. In the in vitro experiment， compared with the control group， the CAE group had significant increases in the expression levels of MCU and ASCL4， a significant reduction in the expression of GPX4， and significant increases in the concentrations of Fe²⁺， total iron， and MDA， the green fluorescence intensity of ROS， and monolayer permeability， as well as a significant reduction in the concentration of GSH （all P<0.05）， with the presence of actin cytoskeleton disruption. Compared with the CAE group， the CAE+RR group had a significant increase in the expression level of GPX4， a significant reduction in the expression level of ASCL4， and significant reductions in the concentrations of Fe²⁺， total iron， and MDA， the green fluorescence intensity of ROS， and monolayer permeability and a significant increase in the concentration of GSH （all P<0.05）， with alleviation of actin cytoskeleton disruption. Compared with the CAE group， the CAE+Fer-1 group had significant reductions in the concentrations of Fe²⁺， total iron， and MDA， the green fluorescence intensity of ROS， and monolayer permeability and a significant increase in the concentration of GSH （all P<0.05）， with alleviation of actin cytoskeleton disruption. Compared with the CAE group， the CAE+Erastin group had significant increases in the concentrations of Fe²⁺， total iron， and MDA， the green fluorescence intensity of ROS， and monolayer permeability and a significant reduction in the concentration of GSH （all P<0.05）， with aggravation of actin cytoskeleton disruption. ConclusionDuring the onset of AP， MCU mediates oxidative stress-induced ferroptosis and leads to the disruption of the pancreatic ductal epithelial barrier， which may be one of the possible pathogeneses of AP.

Objective To compare the effects of non-invasive intermittent oxygen-driven nebulization,non-invasive intermittent air-driven nebulization,and non-invasive simultaneous air-driven nebulization on the dynamic changes of partial pressure of carbon dioxide(PtCO2),pulse oxygen saturation(SpO2),and heart rate during nebulization,as well as the therapeutic effects in patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD).Methods A total of 99 patients with acute exacerbation of COPD requiring non-invasive mechanical ventilation and nebulization were randomly divided into a control group,an experimental group one,and an experimental group two,with 33 patients in each group.The control group was given non-invasive intermittent oxygen-driven nebulization,the experimental group one was given non-invasive intermittent air-driven nebulization,and the experimental group two was given non-invasive simultaneous air-driven nebulization.The changes in PtCO2,SpO2,and heart rate at 0 min,5 min,10 min,15 min during nebulization,5 min,10 min,and 15 min after nebulization were recorded.The values of arterial blood gas PaCO2 and PaO2 were recorded every morning from before treatment to the 7th day of treatment.The length of hospital stay in the three groups was also recorded.Results The comparison of PtCO2 during nebulization among the three groups showed that there were statistically significant differences in the main effect of time and the interaction effect of time and group(P<0.001).The PtCO2 values in the control group showed a linear relationship with time(F=10.166,P=0.003),increasing over time;the PtCO2 values in the experimental group one showed a linear relationship with time(F=10.544,P=0.003),decreasing over time;the PtCO2 values in the experimental group two showed a linear rela-tionship with time(F=20.003,P<0.001),decreasing over time.A one-way ANOVA was conducted on the PtCO2 values at each time point in the three groups.The PtCO2 value at 15 min of nebulization in the control group was higher than that in the experimental group one and the experimental group two.There were statistically signifi-cant differences in the difference in PtCO2 before and after nebulization(dPtCO2)between the experimental group one and the experimental group two and the control group(P<0.05).A one-way ANOVA was conducted on the PtCO2 values at each time point during the observation period after nebulization.The results showed that there were statistically significant differences in PtCO2 at 0 min and 5 min after nebulization among the three groups(P<0.05),while there were no statistically significant differences in PtCO2 at 10 min and 15 min after nebulization among the three groups(P>0.05).The comparison of SPO2 during nebulization among the three groups showed that there were statistically significant differences in the interaction effect of time and group(P<0.05).The SPO2 values in the experimental group one decreased over time.The SPO2 values at 10 min and 15 min of nebulization in the control group were higher than those in the experimental group one and the experimental group two.All three groups could improve PaCO2 in arterial blood gas with the treatment days(P<0.05).Conclusions All three nebu-lization treatment methods can achieve good therapeutic effects.However,non-invasive intermittent oxygen-driven nebulization can increase PtCO2 and SPO2 during nebulization;non-invasive intermittent air-driven nebulization can decrease PtCO2 and SPO2 during nebulization;non-invasive simultaneous air-driven nebulization can decrease PtCO2 and maintain stable SPO2 during nebulization.Therefore,non-invasive simultaneous air-driven nebulization is a relatively safer nebulization inhalation method and is worthy of clinical promotion.

Objective To discuss the potential mechanisms by which programmed cell death(PCD)might contribute to the pathogenesis of diabetic kidney disease(DKD).Methods Retrieve the datasets GSE30529 and GSE30122 from the Gene Expression Omnibus database and analyze them to obtain differentially expressed genes(DEGs)associated with DKD.Utilize the Gene Set Enrichment Analysis website,the ferroptosis database,and the autophagy database,along with relevant literature,to identify genes associated with apoptosis,necroptosis,pyroptosis,autophagy,and ferroptosis.Cross-reference these genes with the DKD DEGs to identify PCD-related genes that are differentially expressed in DKD.Perform Gene Ontology(GO)and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)pathway enrichment analyses to explore the biological functions and potential pathways of the core genes.Conduct a protein-protein interaction network analysis to examine the interaction relationships of the target genes,and use the CytoHubba plugin in Cytoscape to screen for Hub genes.Results In the GSE30529 dataset,a total of 460 DEGs were identified,while the GSE30122 dataset yielded 992 DEGs.After merging and removing duplicates,932 DEGs were obtained.By intersecting these DEGs with PCD-related genes,61 apoptosis-related genes,7 necroptosis-related genes,39 pyroptosis-related genes,18 autophagy-related genes,and 16 ferroptosis-related genes associated with DKD were identified.The KEGG analysis results indicated that the DEGs related to apoptosis,necroptosis,pyroptosis,and autophagy in PCD were primarily enriched in pathways associated with diabetic complications,including the AGE-RAGE,IL-17,NF-κB,and TNF signaling pathways.In contrast,DEGs related to ferroptosis were mainly enriched in the fatty acid degradation pathway.GO enrichment analysis revealed that the biological processes of the differentially expressed PCD related genes in DKD were primarily involved in the regulation of signals such as NF-κB-inducing kinase/NF-κB,IL-1,and IL-17.Conclusions Differentially expressed PCD-related genes in DKD are mainly enriched in related signal pathways such as AGE-RAGE,IL-17,NF-κB and TNF,suggesting a critical role of PCD in the pathogenesis of DKD.

Objective:To compare the efficacy and safety of continuous venetoclax combined azacitidine (VA) chemotherapy and intermedium/high-dose cytarabine (I/HDAC) consolidation in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) fit for standard chemotherapy (transform from UNFIT) .Methods:Clinical data of patients who were fit for standard chemotherapy were collected among those with AML who underwent VA induction in the Department of Hematology, the Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University. The overall survival (OS), relapse-free survival (RFS), event-free survival (EFS), and incidence of adverse events were analyzed retrospectively.Results:This study enrolled 69 patients, consisting of 46 cases in the VA group and 23 cases in the I/HDAC group. We revealed the following. ① The median OS, RFS, EFS were 26.18, 24.69, 20.34 months in the VA group, and 34.14, 30.99, 28.42 months in the I/HDAC group, respectively, with no statistically significant difference (all P>0.05). Median OS of patients who underwent I/HDAC consolidation with European Leukemia Net (ELN) favorable-risk, positive measurable residual disease (MRD), wild type FLT3, or IDH1/2 mutation was significantly longer than those who received VA ( P<0.05). ②Adverse events rate of grade 3 - 4 neutropenia, grade 3 - 4 thrombocytopenia, and bacteremia were significantly lower in the VA group than in the I/HDAC group ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:I/HDAC consolidation was more likely to help get survival benefits for patients with ELN favorable-risk, positive MRD, wild type FLT3, or IDH1/2 mutation. Continuous VA chemotherapy exhibited superior safety than I/HDAC consolidation.

Connective tissue diseases (CTDs) are autoimmune disorders primarily characterized by the involvement of multiple organs and systems. These diseases often have a hidden onset and complex progression, and are difficult to diagnose. Anti-U1 ribonucleoprotein (U1RNP) antibody is an important component of the anti-extractable nuclear antigen antibody spectrum, which has important clinical significance for the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of multiple CTDs and is related to organ involvement. This article introduces the characteristics of anti-U1RNP antibody and provides a comprehensive review of the recent research progress in anti-U1RNP antibodies in CTDs, aiming to help clinical workers better understand anti-U1RNP antibody.

Objective To provide basis for the formation of acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(AECOPD-STES),the item weight of the syndrome therapeutic evaluation scale for AECOPD-STES was determined.Methods Based on the clinical survey data of 387 AECOPD patients,the random forest method was adopted,and the Spyder integrated development environment.Anaconda navigator software was used to call the"random forest Classifier"in the sklearn package to establish the initial random forest model and calculate the item weights.Factor analysis was used to extract common factors with cumulative variance contribution>80%,and the item weight was calculated according to the cumulative variance contribution and component score coefficient of common factors.The percentage weight method was used to calculate the item weight based on the importance score of each item by 29 experts.Finally,40%,30%and 30%of the above three methods were given respectively to determine the final weight of the items.Results The random forest method showed that the weights of wind cold syndrome,cold Yin syndrome,phlegm heat syndrome,phlegm dampness syndrome and blood stasis syndrome were 0.014-0.170,0.076-0.194,0.017-0.183,0.010-0.183 and 0.069-0.298,respectively.Factor analysis showed that the weights of wind cold syndrome,cold yin Syndrome,phlegm heat syndrome,phlegm dampness syndrome and blood stasis syndrome were 0.030-0.111,0.100-0.182,0.037-0.095,0.022-0.141 and 0.054-0.185,respectively.The percentage weight method shows that the weight ranges of wind cold syndrome,cold yin Syndrome,phlegm heat syndrome,phlegm dampness syndrome and blood stasis syndrome were 0.072-0.102,0.146-0.182,0.057-0.077,0.075-0.111 and 0.115-0.185,respectively.According to the three methods,the weights of wind cold syndrome,cold yin Syndrome,phlegm heat syndrome,phlegm dampness syndrome and blood stasis syndrome were 0.050-0.121,0.117-0.174,0.040-0.117,0.056-0.130 and 0.092-0.188,respectively.Conclusion This study determined the weight of each item of AECOPD-STES,providing a basis for the calculation of syndrome score.

Autoimmune diseases of the nervous system are a category of conditions in which a malfunction of the body's immune system leads to damage of nerve tissues, with B cells playing a critical role in their pathogenesis. Currently, the therapeutic approaches used in clinical practice (such as monoclonal antibodies targeting B cells) can effectively control the progression of these diseases, but fail to achieve a radical cure. Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell therapy uses genetic engineering to modify T cells derived from either patients or donors, enabling them to specifically target and durably eliminate peripheral B cells, which might remit or even functionally cure these diseases. Currently, multiple clinical studies on efficacy and safety of CAR-T cell therapy in neurological autoimmune diseases have been carried out successively, and initial results have been achieved. This article reviews the clinical research progress in this field, discusses its application prospects and challenges, aiming to provide some references for in-depth research in this area.

Studies have shown that cannabinoid receptor (CBR) influence the onset and progression of Alzheimer's disease (AD) by participating in several key pathological processes, including β-amyloid protein (Aβ) metabolism, tau protein phosphorylation, neuroinflammation, oxidative stress, autophagy, and synaptic plasticity, which suggests that CBR may represent a potential novel therapeutic target for AD. This article reviews the recent advance in the regulatory role of CBR in AD, aiming to provide theoretical basis for AD treatment.
