Objective To explore the feasibility and reference value of allogeneic lung transplantation and postoperative monitoring in miniature pigs for lung transplantation research. Methods Two miniature pigs (R1 and R2) underwent left lung allogeneic transplantation. Complement-dependent cytotoxicity tests and blood cross-matching were performed before surgery. The main operative times and partial pressure of arterial oxygen (PaO₂) after opening the pulmonary artery were recorded during surgery. Postoperatively, routine blood tests, biochemical blood indicators and inflammatory factors were detected, and pathological examinations of multiple organs were conducted. Results The complement-dependent cytotoxicity test showed that the survival rate of lymphocytes between donors and recipients was 42.5%-47.3%, and no agglutination reaction occurred in the cross-matching. The first warm ischemia times of D1 and D2 were 17 min and 10 min, respectively, and the cold ischemia times were 246 min and 216 min, respectively. Ultimately, R1 and R2 survived for 1.5 h and 104 h, respectively. Postoperatively, in R1, albumin (ALB) and globulin (GLB) decreased, and alanine aminotransferase increased; in R2, ALB, GLB and aspartate aminotransferase all increased. Urea nitrogen and serum creatinine increased in both recipients. Pathological results showed that in R1, the transplanted lung had partial consolidation with inflammatory cell infiltration, and multiple organs were congested and damaged. In R2, the transplanted lung had severe necrosis with fibrosis, and multiple organs had mild to moderate damage. The expression levels of interleukin-1β and interleukin-6 increased in the transplanted lungs. Conclusions The allogeneic lung transplantation model in miniature pigs may systematically evaluate immunological compatibility, intraoperative function and postoperative organ damage. The data obtained may provide technical references for subsequent lung transplantation research.

ObjectiveTo investigate the repair effects of Zhengan Xifengtang on intestinal mucosal barrier in spontaneously hypertensive rats （SHRs） through the pathways of farnesoid X receptor （FXR）-myosin light chain kinase （MLCK）/phosphorylated myosin light chain （p-MLC） and its potential mechanism. MethodsForty 10-week-old male SHRs were randomly divided into model group， amlodipine besylate group （0.5 mg·kg^-1·d^-1）， and high， middle and low dose groups of Zhengan Xifengtang （34.5， 17.25， 8.625 g·kg^-1·d^-1）； eight age-matched male Wistar-Kyoto （WKY） rats of the same origin served as the normal control group. Drug intervention was carried out for 8 weeks， and the blood pressure of the rats was measured regularly. After the intervention， the rats were euthanized to collect tissue samples. Hematoxylin and eosin （HE） staining and Alcian blue-periodic acid-Schiff （AB-PAS） staining were used to evaluate the pathological morphology and the number of goblet cells in colonic mucosa. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） was employed to measure plasma lipopolysaccharide （LPS） and diamine oxidase （DAO） levels in each group of rats. Immunofluorescence （IF） assay was used to detect the relative fluorescence intensity of FXR and p-MLC in colonic tissue. Western blot was used to detect the zonula occludens-1 （ZO-1）， Occludin， Claudin-1， junctional adhesion molecule-1 （JAM-1）， mucin-2 （MUC2）， FXR， MLCK， and p-MLC protein expression in colon tissue. Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） was used to detect mRNA expression levels of ZO-1， Occludin， Claudin-1， JAM-1， MUC2， FXR， MLCK， and MLC in colon tissue. ResultsCompared with the normal group， the blood pressure in the model group increased significantly （P<0.01）， the colonic mucosal structure was seriously damaged， and the number of goblet cells decreased significantly. The contents of LPS and DAO increased significantly （P<0.01）， the relative fluorescence intensity of FXR in colon decreased， while that of p-MLC increased （P<0.01）. The protein and mRNA expressions of ZO-1， Claudin-1， JAM-1， Occludin， MUC2 and FXR decreased significantly （P<0.01）， whereas the protein expression of MLCK and p-MLC increased significantly （P<0.01）. Additionally， the mRNA expression of MLCK and MLC increased significantly （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the Zhengan Xifengtang groups at various dosages and the amlodipine besylate group showed significantly reduced blood pressure （P<0.01）. The damage of colonic mucosa structure was alleviated， the infiltration of inflammatory cells decreased， and the number of goblet cells increased. LPS and DAO levels were decreased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. In the colon， the relative fluorescence intensity of FXR increased， while that of p-MLC decreased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The protein and mRNA expression levels of ZO-1， Claudin-1， JAM-1， Occludin， and FXR increased significantly （P<0.05， P<0.01）， while the protein expression of MLCK and p-MLC decreased significantly （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Furthermore， the mRNA expression of MLCK and MLC decreased significantly （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and the protein expression of MUC2 increased significantly （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The expression of MUC2 mRNA in each dose group of Zhengan Xifengtang increased significantly （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionZhengan Xifengtang may regulate the FXR-MLCK/p-MLC signaling pathway and enhance the expression of tight junction protein， thereby reducing intestinal mucosal permeability， promoting mucosal barrier repair， decreasing LPS release into the blood， and ultimately lowering blood pressure.

Objective: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of the emergency infusion protocol for universal red blood cells by analyzing its clinical application in patients treated at our hospital's war trauma and emergency center. Methods: Data were collected from 133 patients who received universal red blood cell transfusion in the war trauma center of our hospital from January 2016 to December 2024. The basic information, universal red blood cell transfusion volume, compatible blood components, transfusion volume, blood routine (Hb, Hct), liver and kidney function (ALT, AST, TBil, DBil, creatinine, etc.) and coagulation function (PT, APTT, Fib, etc.) before and after transfusion were retrospectively analyzed. Results: Among the 133 patients who received a total of 374 units of universal red blood cells, the 24-hour survival rate was 62.4% (83/133). Spearman correlation analysis showed a positive correlation between shock index and universal red blood cell transfusion volume (r=0.283, P<0.05). Patients were stratified by universal red blood cell transfusion volume (≤ 3 U vs ≥ 4 U). The low volume group had less homotypic red blood cell transfusion volume and total transfusion volume at different time points, and the difference was statistically significant: within 2 h [2(2, 4)vs 4(3, 7), P=0.033<0.05], 0~24 h [6(4, 9) vs 8(6, 14), P=0.028<0.05], total transfusion volume [13(8, 20)vs 19(12, 35), P=0.021<0.05]. No acute hemolytic transfusion reaction occurred within 24 hours after transfusion of universal red blood cell. Conclusion: Universal red blood cells are safe for use in emergency treatment. Furthermore, the shock index combined with the volume of universal red blood cells transfused can predict subsequent transfusion requirements and enables the early reservation of compatible blood, thereby preventing delayed resuscitation.

Objective To assess the expression of CXCL8 in cervical cancer and its association with clinicopathological features and therapeutic efficacy of patients.Methods Bioinformatic analysis was performed using The Cancer Genome Atlas and Genotype-Tissue Expression databases to compare CXCL8 expression between cervical cancer and normal tissues.R software(version 4.4.0)was used for data analysis,with the timeROC package applied to construct time-dependent receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves for evalua-ting the prognostic predictive efficacy of CXCL8.The survival package with the survfit function was used to compare survival differences between CXCL8 high-and low-expression groups.Clinical data and tissue specimens were collected from 94 patients with cervical squa-mous cell cancer treated at The First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University between January 2017 and December 2021.Immu-nohistochemical staining was used to detect CXCL8 expression levels and analyze its correlation with clinicopathological characteristics,therapeutic efficacy,and prognosis.Results Bioinformatic analysis showed that CXCL8 was highly expressed in cervical cancer tissues than in normal tissues(P＜0.05).Time-dependent ROC curves and survival analyses showed that patients with high CXCL8 expression had significantly shorter overall survival than those with low CXCL8 expression(P＜0.001).Immunohistochemical results showed that CXCL8 expression in cervical cancer tissues was significantly higher than that in adjacent tissues(P＜0.000 1).Clinical correlation analy-sis revealed that CXCL8 expression levels were associated with treatment regimen(P＜0.001)and short-term therapeutic efficacy(P=0.017).Compared to the low-expression group,the high-expression group showed a significantly lower therapeutic efficacy and shorter overall survival(P＜0.05).Conclusion CXCL8 is highly expressed in cervical cancer tissues,and patients with high CXCL8 expression have poor prognosis.Thus,CXCL8 may be an effective target for assessing the prognosis and clinical treatment of cervical cancer.

Objective:To investigate the the differential expression of EIF5A2 in intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma cell lines RBE,HCCC9810,and HUCCT1,and its effects on HCCC9810 cell migration and invasion,epithelial mesenchymal transition,and PI3K/AKT signaling pathway.Methods:The differential expression of EIF5A2 in RBE,HCCC9810,and HUCCT1 cell lines was detected using WB method.The HCCC9810 cell line,with the highest expression of EIF5A2,was selected for this experiment.The expression of EIF5A2 in HCCC9810 cell line was silenced by transient transfection of small interfering RNA.The best silencing effect of small interfering RNA was screened by WB.Scratch assay and Tran-swell migration invasion assay were used to detect the effect of silencing EIF5A2 on the migration and invasion ability of HCCC9810 cells.WB was used to detect the effect of silencing EIF5A2 on PI3K/AKT signaling pathway and epithelial mesenchymal transition in HCCC9810 cells.Results:The WB results showed that EIF5A2 had the highest expression in the HCCC9810 cell line,and siRNA1 had the best silencing effect on EIF5A2 in the HCCC9810 cell line.Scratch assay and Transwell migration invasion assay results showed that silencing EIF5A2 in the HCCC9810 cell line resulted in a decrease in cell invasion and metastasis ability(P＜0.05).At the same time,the expression of p-PI3K and p-AKT in the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway was significantly decreased(P＜0.05),while the epithelial cell marker E-cadherin expression increased(P＜0.05)and the stromal cell marker N-cadherin expression decreased(P＜0.05).Conclusion:EIF5A2 may promote epi-thelial mesenchymal transition and enhance the migration and invasion ability of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma cells through the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway.

Hilar cholangiocarcinoma is insidious in onset and often causes obstructive jaundice due to bile stasis,leading to impaired liver function.For tumors with malignant obstructive jaundice,biliary drainage is often performed before surgery in clinical practice.Currently,the commonly used drainage methods are percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage(PTBD)and endoscopic retrograde biliary drain-age(ERBD),but there are controversies over the advantages and disadvantages of the two drainage methods.PTBD drainage can often lead to tumor implantation metastasis,but the underlying mechanism remains unclear.We detected tumor cells in PTBD and ERBD bile samples from hilar cholangiocarcino-ma patients,subsequently explored their tumorigenicity and mechanisms through tumorsphere assay in vitro and xenograft tumor models in vivo.The experiments included benign gallstones group(30 cases)as a negative control,PTBD group(14 cases)and ERBD group(13 cases).Tumorsphere formation was i-dentified in 3 cases(23％)among the 13 cases of ERBD group,in 6 cases(42％)among the 14 cases of PTBD group,but there were no tumor cells or formed tumorspheres in the 30 cases of benign gallstone group.The tumor sphere formation ability of cells in the PTBD group was significantly higher than that in ERBD group.Subcutaneous xenograft tumor assays showed that tumor growth in the PTBD group was sig-nificantly higher than that in the ERBD group.Tumor cells in PTBD bile possessed stronger tumorigenici-ty compared with the ERBD group.Mechanically,stem cell transcription factor Nanog mRNA levels were significantly higher in the PTBD group compared to the ERBD group.Both tumorsphere formation and xenograft tumor growth were reduced by Nanog knockdown in three cases of the PTBD group,indicating the important roles of Nanog in tumorigenicity of PTBD group tumor cells.The half-life of Nanog mRNA was longer in PTBD group cells than in ERBD group cells,suggesting potential post-transcriptional regu-lation on Nanog mRNA.The Nanog m6A level was higher in PTBD group tumor cells compared to the ERBD group.Analysis of methyltransferases and demethylases,ALKBH5(α-ketoglutarate dependent dioxygenase alkb family homolog 5)mRNA levels were lower in the PTBD group than in the ERBD group and significantly correlated with the m6A level of Nanog.ALKBH5 knockdown led to an increase in the m6A level of Nanog,while ALKBH5 overexpression decreased the m6A level of Nanog.Dual-luciferase activity assays demonstrated that ALKBH5 knockdown significantly enhanced luciferase activity,whereas ALKBH5 overexpression reduced it.Further studies confirmed that ALKBH5 knockdown upregulated both the mRNA and protein levels of Nanog,whereas overexpressing ALKBH5 downregulated them.ALKBH5 mediated the demethylation modification of Nanog mRNA,and the lower levels of ALKBH5 expression in the PTBD group promoted Nanog's m6A modification.Overexpressing ALKBH5 decreased tumorsphere growth,while ALKBH5 knockdown increased it,which was subsequently reduced by the simultaneous Nanog knockdown again.In sum,tumor cells in PTBD and ERBD drainage bile from hilar cholangiocar-cinoma patients exhibited tumorigenicity.Compared to the ERBD group,tumor cells in PTBD bile with lower ALKBH5 expression levels enhanced Nanog's m6A modification to upregulate Nanog expression levels,resulting in stronger tumorigenicity.These findings are significant for elucidating propensity to tumor implantation metastasis from PTBD drainage.

Aim To explore the key components and mechanisms of Lizhong decoction in treating rats with cold-damp diarrhea based on network pharmacology,molecular docking technology and animal experiments.Methods By literature review and database collec-tion,the components of Lizhong decoction,therapeutic targets,and the mapping with diarrhea disease targets were conducted to construct an intersection target pro-tein-protein interaction network for screening core tar-gets,and GO and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis was performed to build an"active component-target-pathway"network,followed by molecular docking vali-dation.Forty-eight rats were randomly divided into the normal control group(K),model group(DG),Lizhong decoction group(LZDG),and Pulsatilla decoction group(BTDG).Subsequently,a rat cold-damp diar-rhea model was established using Senna combined with low-temperature high-humidity environment,and the rats were intervened with Lizhong decoction and Pul-satilla decoction.HE staining was used to detect path-ological changes in intestinal tissue,ELISA was em-ployed to measure the levels of peripheral blood IL-6,IL-10,IL-1 β,and TNF-α,and western blot was used to determine the expression of colon tight junction pro-teins.Results Network pharmacology initially identi-fied 125 compounds in Lizhong decoction,5 186 drug target components,438 disease targets,and 60"drug-disease"shared targets.GO and KEGG enrichment a-nalysis showed that signaling pathways such as IL-17 and TNF were highly enriched.Molecular docking in-dicated that the core components of the drug had good binding activity with corresponding key targets.Liz-hong decoction could effectively improve the clinical symptoms of rats with cold-damp diarrhea,and com-pared with the DG group,the diarrhea rate,diarrhea in-dex,and other related indicators also gradually de-creased to normal levels.Compared with the DG group,the LZDG group showed reduced inflammation levels and a recovery in energy metabolism levels.Conclusion It can regulate targets such as MMP9 and IL-17 signaling pathways through multi-components like Calycosin and formononetin to exert its therapeutic effect on cold-damp diarrhea.

High mobility group box protein 1(HMGB1)is one of the most widely expressed protein member in the HMGs family,which is well known for its involvement in the body inflammatory response.Previous researches have found that it plays a significant role in cell migration,immune identification and neuroprotection.Spinal cord injury is a disease that causes severe damage to the nervous system,and neural circuits are disrupted after a spinal cord injury,which leads to many conditions including ischemia and hypoxia,inflammatory responses,demyelinating lesions,and glial scar formation that are detrimental to nerve regeneration and repair,making it one of the most difficult diseases to treat in the modern spinal surgery field.HMGB1 is upregulated after spinal cord injury,thereby regulating neuroinflam-matory responses,and participating in the neuronal apoptosis,promoting neuronal regeneration,and inducing neural stem cell differentiation and migration,which plays an important role in the process of neural function recovery.This paper summarizes the structure and function of HMGB1,as well as its role in spinal cord injury,in order to provide direction for founding therapeutic target for neurological function recovery after spinal cord injury.

The wear debris generated during artificial joint prosthesis service can react with bone tissues to form osteolysis,seriously affecting the life-time of artificial joint prostheses.This paper reviews,summarizes,and analyzes domestic and international research literature on the extraction,characterization,and identification of wear debris from different artificial joint materials,aiming to provide references and feasible ideas for the future construction of a systematic and hierarchical research system for artificial joint wear debris.The main findings are as follows:strong alkali protein degradation test,strong acid protein degradation test,and protease protein degradation test are the commonly used method for extracting artificial joint wear debris,and researchers have clarified the protein degradation mechanisms of these three debris extraction methods.The characterization of wear debris in-vitro and in-vivo is mostly for hip and knee joints,with a small amount involving cervical spine and ankle joints.Studies have shown that the size,quantity,shape,and volume of wear particles are influenced by factors such as joint type,contact area,material selection,and implantation time.Both domestic and international studies have conducted characterization research on wear debris after in-vitro simulation testing,but there is still a lack of wear debris characterization analysis of clinical retrievals in China.Currently,most research is on the recognition of wear debris in the traditional mechanical field,but research on the intelligent recognition of artificial joint wear debris is relatively few,indicating that there is a certain lag in the application of computer technology in the field of artificial joint wear debris recognition.
