Icaritin(ICT)is an 8-isopentenylflavonoid,which is the main effective component of the tra-ditional Chinese medicine Epimedium.Previously,we found that Icaritin inhibits the growth of glioblasto-ma(GBM)cells.Herein we aim to study the in vivo anti-GBM effectiveness of Icaritin and explore its mechanism.The results of MTT assay,flow cytometry,comet assay and cellular immunofluorescence as-say in vitro showed that ICT inhibited the proliferation of four kinds of GBM cells,U87,U251,U118 and A172,induced early apoptosis(P＜0.001)and late apoptosis(P＜0.05)in U87 cells,induced DNA damage in U87 cells,and blocked the growth of U87 cells at the G0/G1 phase(P＜0.0001)in a concen-tration-time-dependent manner.In vivo subcutaneous tumor transplantation tumor experiments showed that feeding 200 mg/kg(P＜0.01)and 400 mg/kg(P＜0.001)ICT had a significant inhibitory effect on the growth of GBM subcutaneous tumors,and had no significant toxic effects on heart,liver,spleen,lung and kidney tissues.The results of network pharmacological analysis,molecular docking and cellular thermodynamic experiments showed that there were 26 possible target proteins between ICT and GBM,a-mong which the expression of p53 in GBM tissues was significantly(P＜0.001)higher than in normal tis-sues,and the binding energy of ICT and p53 was lower;cellular thermodynamic experiments verified that ICT significantly enriched the level of p53 in the living cells of GBM,which indicated that ICT could tar-get p53.The expression of key proteins in the DNA damage repair and apoptosis-associated FOXO signa-ling pathway was detected by ICT.The results showed that the expression of ATR(P＜0.01),P53(P＜0.001),P21(P＜0.05)and γ-H2AX(P＜0.05)was up-regulated,whereas the expression of Cyc-lin E1(P＜0.01),E2F1(P＜0.05),CDK2(P＜0.01),Rb(P＜0.001),p-Rb(P＜0.0001)and WRN(P＜0.0001)expression were down-regulated.There was no significant change in the expres-sion of FOXO 1 in the FOXO pathway or a significant down-regulation of its phosphorylation level.This study demonstrated that ICT could effectively inhibit the growth of GBM cells in vivo.It targets p53 to regulate the DNA damage repair pathway and FOXO signaling pathway to induce GBM cell cycle arrest and apoptosis.

Objective To analyze the correlation between lesion volume,lesion mass,and maximum lesion diameter in the assessment of advanced hepatocarcinoma with lung metastasis,and to evaluate the application value of total volume response and total mass response of lung metastatic lesions in efficacy assessment.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the CT imaging data of 20 patients clinically confirmed with hepatocarcinoma and lung metastases,followed by subsequent follow-up to monitor their survival outcomes.Volume measurement software was used to measure the volume of lesions before and after treatment.We recored lesion diameter,volume measurements and CT values,calculated the mass of the lesions.The correlation between lesion volume,mass and diameter was analyzed,as well as the correlation between the change rates of volume,mass and lesion diameter.Additionally,the total volume and total mass of all lesions were calculated.The correlation between the change rates of total volume/total mass and the change rate of pulmonary lesion diameter under the RECIST 1.1 criteria,as well as the correlation with changes in patients'tumor markers,were analyzed.Furthermore,the overall volume response and overall mass response of lesions were evaluated based on changes in total volume and total mass,and their consistencies with the RECIST 1.1 criteria for efficacy evaluation were analyzed.Finally,univariate Cox regression analysis was performed to explore the association between these variables and patient survival outcomes.Results There was strong correlation between lesion volume,mass and tumor diameter(r=0.771,0.775),between the rate of change in mass and the rate of change in lesion diameter(r=0.846),and between the rates of change in total volume/total mass and the rate of change in pulmonary lesion diameter under the RECIST 1.1 criteria(r=0.800,0.896).The correlation between the rates of change in total volume/total mass and patients'tumor markers was not statistically significant.There was moderate correlation between the rate of change in volume and the rate of change in lesion diameter(r=0.692).The evaluation results of total volume response and total mass response for pulmonary lesions in advanced hepatocarcinoma with lung metastasis were generally consistent with the RECIST 1.1 criteria(Kappa=0.486,0.426).Univariate Cox regression analysis revealed that total lesion volume(P=0.047)and total lesion mass(P=0.049)were independent prognostic factors for survival outcomes.Conclusion Lesion volume,mass,and diameter,as well as their respective change rates,were found to be interrelated.Furthermore,total lesion volume and total lesion mass were identified as independent prognostic factors for survival outcomes.The total volume response and total mass response are promising evaluation methods in evaluating the efficacy of lung metastasis of hepatocarcinoma,which are different from the RECIST 1.1 evaluation criteria.

Objective:To explore the correlation between D-dimer (D-D), antithrombin Ⅲ (AT-Ⅲ) at admission, and multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) in patients with severe multiple trauma.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted to collect data from 80 patients with severe multiple trauma admitted to Jinhua Central Hospital from April 2021 to April 2024. According to the occurrence of MODS within 1 week of treatment, the patients were divided into an occurrence group with 25 cases and a non-occurrence group with 55 cases. The general data, plasma D-D, serum AT-Ⅲ levels and other laboratory indexes at admission were compared between the two groups. The correlation between D-D, AT-Ⅲ at admission and MODS in patients with severe multiple trauma was analyzed.Results:The injury severity rating score (ISS) in the occurrence group was higher than that in the non-occurrence group: (29.12 ± 3.84) points vs. (26.18 ± 3.12) points, the proportion of damage control surgery was lower than that in the non-occurrence group: 32.00% (8/25) vs. 65.45% (36/55), the platelet, AT-Ⅲ and albumin at admission were lower than those in the non-occurrence group: (112.28 ± 20.12) ×10 9/L vs. (123.56 ± 23.47) ×10 9/L, (133.79 ± 18.21) mg/L vs. (148.26 ± 19.57) mg/L, (35.12 ± 6.35) g/L vs. (38.47 ± 5.88) g/L, the D-D at admission was higher than that in the non-occurrence group: (11.36 ± 3.35) mg/L vs. (8.18 ± 2.83) mg/L, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis result showed that the occurrence of MODS in patients with severe multiple trauma may be related to the ISS at admission, the status of receiving damage control surgery, and the D-D, AT-Ⅲ, albumin at admission ( OR = 1.29, 0.14, 1.34, 0.95 and 0.87; P<0.05). Restrictive cubic spline analysis showed that the risk of MODS in patients with severe multiple trauma showed a non-linear dose-response relationship with D-D and AT-Ⅲ at admission ( P<0.05). When D-D at admission ≥ 9.25 mg/L, the risk of MODS increased with increasing levels, while when AT-Ⅲ at admission ≤ 143.49 mg/L, the risk of MODS increased with decreasing levels. The D-D and AT-Ⅲ at admission had a negative interactive effect on the occurrence of MODS in patients with severe multiple trauma. By drawing decision curves and column charts, it was found that D-D and AT-Ⅲ at admission, as well as other major indicators, had high predictive power for the occurrence of MODS in patients with severe multiple trauma. Conclusions:The occurrence of MODS in patients with severe multiple trauma may be related to the levels of D-D and AT-Ⅲ, and the risk of MODS increases with the increase of D-D and the decrease of AT-Ⅲ at admission. Both can effectively assist other indicators in predicting the risk of MODS in patients.

Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics of women with abnormal uterine bleeding(AUB)in sub-plateau regions and analyze the factors affecting their treatment methods.Methods AUB patients who were hospitalized from Jan 1,2018 to Dec 31,2022,in a sub-plateau region(Yongping County People's Hospital of Yunnan Province)with an average altitude of 1 620 meters were selected.The general clinical characteristics of the patients were summarized,and patients were classified into two categories(with or without uterine structural lesion)and nine subtypes(PALM-COEIN)according to the FIGO recommended etiological classification guidelines.Then the patients were divided into groups based on the presence or absence of uterine structural lesions,ethnic group(Han and minority),conservative drug treatment and surgical treatment groups,blood transfusion and non-blood transfusion groups.Binary Logistic regression analysis was used to identify factors affecting treatment methods.Results A total of 481 AUB patients enrolled,and the delayed consultation rate was as high as 80.46%,and the proportion of overweight and obese patients was 49.90%,which was higher than the average level among Chinese women.The main cause was AUB-O(AUB-ovulatory dysfunction),accounting for 78.59%of cases,the proportion of patients with delayed medical treatment was higher than those without delayed medical treatment(82.17%vs.74.47%).Patients who received blood transfusion were significantly younger,had lower hemoglobin(HGB)levels,fewer pregnancies,and lower BMI compared to those in the non-blood transfusion group(P<0.05).Univariate analysis showed that the surgical treatment group had older age,longer onset time,higher HGB levels,more pregnancies and deliveries,higher BMI,a higher proportion of Han ethnicity patients,lower rates of non-blood transfusion,higher rates of hypertension,and more uterine structural lesions compared to the conservative drug treatment group.Multivariate regression analysis revealed that blood transfusion treatment reduced the probability of surgical treatment.Age and uterine structural lesions were risk factors for requiring surgical treatment,for each additional year of age,the risk of undergoing surgical treatment increased by 10%.The risk of requiring surgical treatment for patients with uterine structural lesions was 2.987 times higher than for those without.Conclusion AUB patients in this sub-plateau regions have a high rate of delayed consultation and a high proportion of overweight and obesity,with AUB-O being the primary cause.Older age and the presence of uterine structural lesions were risk factors for requiring surgical treatment.

Aim To investigate the role of mesence-phalic astrocyte-derived neurotrophic factor(MANF)in the inhibitory effect of rhynchophylline(Rhy)on the malignant biological behaviors of gastric cancer cells and its underlying regulatory mechanisms.Meth-ods SGC-7901 gastric cancer cells were transfected using adenovirus and liposome transfection techniques.The experimental groups included:Control group,Rhy group,Rhy+NC group(Rhy+adenovirus-transfected MANF-irrelevant fragment),Rhy+si-MANF group(Rhy+adenovirus-transfected MANF siRNA),Vec-tor group(empty vector),OVE-MANF group(recom-binant plasmid overexpressing MANF).After 24 hours of intervention,cell proliferation,apoptosis,migra-tion,and invasion were assessed using the MTT assay,Hoechst staining,and Transwell assays,respectively.The expressions of MANF,Cyclin D1,and cleaved caspase-3 proteins were measured using Western blot.NF-κB transcriptional activity was evaluated via a lucif-erase reporter assay.Results Compared to the control group,Rhy treatment significantly inhibited gastric cancer cell growth in a dose-dependent manner(P＜0.05),induced typical apoptotic morphological chan-ges,and increased the expression of MANF and cleaved caspase-3 proteins(P＜0.05),while reduc-ing Cyclin D1 protein expression and NF-κB transcrip-tional activity(P＜0.05).Additionally,Rhy treat-ment markedly decreased cell migration and invasion capabilities(P＜0.05).In comparison to the Rhy group,adenovirus-mediated transfection of MANF siR-NA suppressed apoptosis,promoted gastric cancer cell proliferation,migration,and invasion,inhibited MANF and cleaved caspase-3 expression(P＜0.05),and enhanced Cyclin D1 protein levels and NF-κB transcriptional activity(P＜0.05).Compared to the Vector group,OVE-MANF(overexpression of MANF)induced apoptosis,suppressed proliferation,invasion,and metastasis of gastric cancer cells,upregulated MANF and cleaved caspase-3 expression(P＜0.05),and inhibited Cyclin D1 protein levels and NF-κB tran-scriptional activity(P＜0.05).Conclusion Rhy in-hibits the proliferation,migration,and invasion of gas-tric cancer cells and induces apoptosis,with its mecha-nism linked to the promotion of MANF expression and suppression of NF-κB transcriptional activity.
