Virus-like particles(VLPs)are hollow nanoparticles composed of one or several virus structural proteins,which have a morphological structure similar to natural viruses but do not contain any genetic material.Due to the excellent innate immunogenicity and safety of VLPs,they are often used in the development of tumor vaccines.In addition,compared with traditional drug delivery vectors,VLPs have better biocompatibility and strong targeting ability,making them highly valued in the delivery of anti-tumor drugs.In recent years,the efficient delivery of gene editing tools using VLPs has provided new possibilities for tumor treatment.VLPs can inhibit tumor growth and spread through various mechanisms,such as activating immune responses to suppress tumor growth,stimulating the body's immune system,promoting the expression of tumor associated antigens,and enhancing the body's ability to recognize and clear tumor cells.These studies not only broaden the application scope of VLPs in the field of anti-tumor therapy,but also provide a broader prospect for future research and application.This article reviewed the research progress of VLPs derived from different viruses in preventive or therapeutic vaccines and drug delivery carriers,and explored new development strategies.

Plant virus nanoparticles(PVNPs)have inherent immune stimulation ability,which has been widely studied as an immune adjuvant to stimulate the anti-tumor immune response.PVNPs not only have the potential to be used as vaccine adjuvants for cancer immunotherapy,but also as delivery systems for single immunotherapy or combination therapies.Among them,PVNPs have achieved great success in preclinical research of cancer immunotherapy.The new immunotherapy strategy is to use PVNPs as in situ vaccination(ISV),which can effectively inhibit tumor growth and produce a widening systemic anti-tumor immune response after in-tratumoral administration;in addition,PVNPs in combination with other tumor treatment modalities may also improve the local and systemic anti-tumor immune response.In this review,the application and prospects of plant virus nanoparticles in cancer immunotherapy are reviewed,in order to provide new ideas for cancer immunotherapy.

Active immunotherapy for cancer aims to treat disease by inducing effective cellular immunity and humoral immunity.Research on virus-like particles(VLPs)vaccines has made tremendous progress in recent years,dramatically reducing morbidity and mortality from some infectious diseases.VLPs are nanoparticles self-assembled from one or more structural proteins,with highly ordered repeat sequences and good immunogenicity,which can induce strong cellular immune and humoral immune responses.VLPs can overcome immunosuppressive state of tumor microenvironment,break self-tolerance,and trigger strong cytotoxic T lymphocyte activity,which is critical for both viral clearance and destruction of cancer cells.This article mainly reviews current research progress of VLPs-based cancer vaccines and potential defects of VLPs as vaccine carriers in development of cancer vaccines.

Virus-like particles(VLPs)are nanoparticles that are self-assembled from one or more structural proteins,which can be arranged in several layers or contain a lipid outer membrane.Due to the lack of genetic material,VLPs cannot infect host cells,but are highly immunogenic and can induce immune responses different from conventional inactivated vaccines.VLPs can be produced using a variety of systems including bacterial,yeast,plant,insect and mammalian cells.Compared with traditional vaccines,VLPs have incomparable advantages,so they are becoming more and more popular in the biomedical field.To date,a series of vaccine candi-dates based on VLPs have been developed for immunization and prevention of various infectious diseases.At the same time,the recent successful application of VLPs in targeted drug delivery and gene therapy has attracted attention.This paper mainly reviews the com-monly used expression systems of VLPs and the research progress of their applications.

The incidence of chronic fatigue syndrome(CFS)has gradually increased in recent years.Although CFS can severely affect patient quality of life,its clinical diagnosis is easily overlooked.Elucidating the pathogenesis of CFS and treating it from both etiological and symptomatological perspectives are crucial for patient recovery;however,its unclear pathogenesis means that etiological treatment options are limited,and current treatments mainly focus on improving clinical symptoms.In this context,there is a need to establish and evaluate a suitable animal model.This article comprehensively integrates the diagnostic criteria of CFS and progress in related basic research.We also summarize the behavioral experimental method used to evaluate CFS models in basic research in the past 5 years and discuss these evaluations from the perspectives of general condition,fatigue state,cognitive function,emotional state,and pain degree.This review aims to present the current situation,expose problems,trigger reflection,and promote improvements in the behavioral evaluation of animal models of CFS.

Single chain antibody fragment (scFv) is a small molecule composed of a variable region of heavy chain (VH) and a variable region of light chain (VL) of an antibody, and these two chains are connected by a flexible short peptide. scFv is the smallest functional fragment with complete antigen-binding activity, which contains both the antibody-recognizing site and the antigen-binding site. Compared with other antibodies, scFv has the advantages of small molecular weight, strong penetration, low immunogenicity, and easy expression. Currently, the most commonly used display systems for scFv mainly include the phage display system, ribosome display system, mRNA display system, yeast cell surface display system and mammalian cell display system. In recent years, with the development of scFv in the field of medicine, biology, and food safety, they have also attracted much attention in the sectors of biosynthesis and applied research. This review summarizes the advances of scFv display systems in recent years in order to facilitate scFv screening and application.

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) external therapy for sleep disorder of chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) has good anti-fatigue effect and can improve sleep quality of patients. The treatment for sleep disorders of CFS with TCM external treatment mainly adopts acupuncture, moxibustion, massage, TCM bath, transcutaneous acupoint electrical stimulation and auricular point sticking, etc., or alone, or comprehensive application, or combined with oral Chinese materia medica. The appropriate treatment method can be selected according to the patients' condition and compliance, which reflects the unique advantages of TCM syndrome differentiation and treatment and the treatment according to people and time. The existing research still needs to further form a standardized and recognized diagnosis and treatment system, so as to better guide clinical popularization and application.
