Colorectal cancer (CRC) ranks as the second leading cause of cancer death worldwide. Although preventive colonoscopy screening has improved the survival rate of CRC patients in the past few years, there are still many patients diagnosed after symptoms appear. The surgery for CRC carries high risks and high recurrence, and ideal therapies remain to be developed. The Janus kinase/signal transducer and activator of transcription (JAK/STAT) signaling pathway has become a focus of research due to its central role in cellular activities. As a classic oncogenic pathway, the JAK/STAT signaling pathway offers new possibilities for diagnosing and treating various malignancies, and it paves a new way for developing therapies for CRC. This pathway not only participates in basic cellular processes, such as proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis but also plays a crucial role in immune responses and inflammation. Abnormal activation of the JAK/STAT signaling pathway is closely related to the occurrence and development of CRC. Studies have shown that the active components and compound prescriptions of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) can inhibit the proliferation, invasion, migration, and angiogenesis while promoting the apoptosis and autophagy of CRC cells by interfering with the JAK/STAT signaling pathway. Furthermore, this pathway may also play a role in regulating the sensitivity of tumor cells to chemotherapy and radiotherapy, thus influencing the effectiveness of tumor treatment and impeding the progression of CRC. In recent years, research results have been updated rapidly, and previous literature summaries have failed to incorporate the latest findings, creating obstacles to accessing current literature. Therefore, this article supplements and summarizes information from the definition of the JAK/STAT pathway, association of this pathway with CRC, and TCM intervention of CRC. This review aims to provide references for future development of molecular biology regarding CRC and the research and development of new drugs.

Depression is closely associated with a neuro-endocrine-immune(NEI)system imbalance.The"excessive vitality leading to restraint and counter-regulation(Kang Hai Cheng Zhi)"theory elucidates the self-regulating mechanism for maintaining dynamic equilibrium in the body,and serves as an importance principle guiding treatment formulation and medication selection.Based on the correlation between NEI system imbalance and the traditional Chinese medicine pathogenesis of depression,and integrating the"Kang Hai Cheng Zhi"theory,the author posits that the pathogenesis of depression lies in overactive liver invading spleen,earth dampness impeding wood′s ascendancy,and disharmony between body and mind,as well as imbalance in storage and discharge functions of liver and kidney,disharmony between Yin and Yang,and disrupted counter-regulation.This dosely aligns with two key pathological methanisms at the micro level:microglial-limbic system homeostatic imbalance and hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis-inflammatory circuit dysregulation.Clinically,the treatment principle for depression adheres to supporting the counter-regulation to restrain excess,with herbal interventions using strategies such as restraining wood to support earth,dredging earth to unblock wood,and harmonizing pivotal functions,as well as nourishing water to nurture wood,warming kidney to tonify liver,and relieving depression to calm the spirit.These approaches aim to regulate the liver,spleen,and kidney,embodying the core therapeutic tenet of"striving for equilibrium,"thereby restoring the body′s self-regulating capability.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy of different doses of bortezomib combined with chemotherapy for multiple myeloma (MM).Methods:A prospective case series study was performed. A total of 81 MM patients at Leshan People's Hospital from February 2022 to May 2023 were collected as study subjects. According to the random number table method, patients were divided into high-dose bortezomib group (39 cases treated with 1.6 mg/m 2 bortezomib combined with dexamethasone and thalidomide) and low-dose bortezomib group (42 cases treated with 1.3 mg/m 2 bortezomib combined with dexamethasone and thalidomide). The clinical efficacy after 4 courses of treatment, adverse reactions, C-reactive protein (CRP), β 2 microglobulin (β 2-MG) and serum creatinine levels before and after treatment, survival and prognosis of patients in both groups were compared. Results:There were 29 males and 10 females in the high-dose bortezomib group and the age was (59±5) years; there were 31 males and 11 females in the low-dose bortezomib group and the age was (59±6) years. The differences in the general data of both groups were statistically significant (all P > 0.05). The overall effectiveness rate was 87.2% (34/39) and 80.9% (34/42), respectively in the high-dose bortezomib group and the low-dose bortezomib group, and the difference was not statistically significant of both groups ( χ2 = 0.58, P = 0.446). The incidence rate of adverse reactions was 30.8% (12/39), 19.0% (8/39), respectively in the high-dose bortezomib group and the low-dose bortezomib group, and the difference was not statistically significant of both groups ( χ2 = 1.49, P = 0.222). Before treatment, there were no statistically significant differences in the levels of CRP, β 2-MG and serum creatinine between the 2 groups (all P > 0.05); after treatment, there were statistically significant differences in the levels of CRP [(23.6±2.2) g/L vs. (31.5±3.6) g/L)], β 2-MG [(2 317±63) μg/L vs. (4 212±114) μg/L] and serum creatinine [(70±5) μmol/L vs. (79±7) μmol/L] in the high-dose bortezomib group and the low-dose bortezomib group ( t value was 4.28, 18.29, 4.00, all P<0.05); and the levels of above 3 indicators after treatment were lower than those before treatment of both groups (all P < 0.05). The mortality rate was 10.3% (4/39) and 14.3% (6/42), respectively in the high-dose bortezomib group and the low-dose bortezomib group 1-year follow-up after treatment, and the difference was not statistically significant ( χ2 = 0.30, P = 0.582). Conclusions:The efficacy and safety of high-dose bortezomib combined with chemotherapy are comparable to those of low-dose bortezomib combined with chemotherapy in treatment of MM, while the former could improve renal function and inflammatory status of MM patients.
