It is proposed that cold qi-induced accumulation encapsulates the core pathogenesis of the inflammation-cancer transformation in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Cold pathogens may serve as the initiating factor. When first invading the intestines, cold pathogens obstruct the flow of qi; over time, the lingering cold impairs the middle jiao (焦), eventually leading to the accumulation of cold-phlegm and blood stasis. Based on the progressive nature of this transformation, the process can be divided into three stages, active stage, remission stage, and carcinogenic stage. In the active stage, the main pathogenesis involves stagnation of cold qi and accumulation of damp-heat in the intestines; in the remission stage, cold qi impairs the spleen, disrupting its transport and transformation functions; and in the carcinogenic stage, the mechanisms include cold-induced accumulation, phlegm accumulation from cold, and stagnation of cold and blood stasis. Accordingly, the treatment strategies are proposed.In the active stage, regulating qi, relieving stagnation, and harmonizing cold and heat; in the remission stage, warming yang, dispersing cold, tonifying qi, and strengthening the spleen; and in the carcinogenic stage, promoting qi circulation, dispersing cold, resolving phlegm, activating yang, and eliminating stasis to remove accumulation. These approaches aim to interrupt the transformation of IBD into colorectal cancer.

ObjectiveTo explore the mechanism of Shaoyaotang in the prevention and treatment of colitis-associated carcinogenesis (CAC) based on myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs)-related immunosuppressive microenvironment. MethodsA total of 140 six-week-old SPF FVB male mice were randomly divided into seven groups: Blank group, Shaoyaotang without model group (7.12 g·kg-1), model group, sulfasalazine group (0.52 g·kg-1), Shaoyaotang low-dose group (3.56 g·kg-1), Shaoyaotang medium-dose group (7.12 g·kg-1) and Shaoyaotang high-dose group (14.24 g·kg-1), with 20 mice in each group. The blank control group and the Shaoyaotang without model group received a single intraperitoneal injection of physiological saline (10 mg·kg-1), while the other five groups were given a single intraperitoneal injection of azoxymethane (AOM) (10 mg·kg-1). After 1 week, the mice were given drinking water containing 2% dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) for 1 week, followed by normal drinking water for 2 weeks. This cycle was repeated three times over a total period of 14 weeks to establish the CAC mouse model. Each group was administered gavage once daily for 2 weeks starting on the 14th day of the experiment, followed by three times a week until the end of the experiment. The body weight of the mice was recorded weekly. Mice were sacrificed on the 28th and 98th days of the experiment. After dissection, the colon length, colon weight, spleen weight, tumor size, and tumor number were measured. Hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining was used to assess the pathological morphology of colon tumor tissue. Flow cytometry was used to detect MDSCs, regulatory T cells (Tregs), CD4+ T cells, CD8+ T cells, and the CD4+/CD8+ T cell ratio in the spleen. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression levels of programmed cell death protein-1 (PD-1), programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1), phosphorylated AMP-activated protein kinase (p-AMPK), phosphorylated nuclear factor-κB (p-NF-κB), and hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α) in the colon tissue. ResultsOn day 14, compared with the blank group, the body weight of the model group was significantly reduced (P<0.01), reaching its lowest point on day 28 (23.39 ± 0.95 ) g. On days 28 and 98, compared with the blank group, the colon length in the model group was significantly shortened (P<0.01), the colon index significantly increased (P<0.01), the spleen index significantly increased (P<0.01), and the tumor load significantly increased (P<0.01). HE staining showed that in the model group, tumor cells, a large number of inflammatory cell infiltrates, goblet cell disappearance, and crypt loss were observed. In each dose group of Shaoyaotang, the damage to the colonic mucosa, inflammatory cell infiltration, and crypt structure destruction were alleviated. Compared with the model group, the body weight of mice in each dose group of Shaoyaotang increased. On day 98, the colon length was significantly increased (P<0.01), the colon index significantly decreased (P<0.01), the spleen index significantly decreased (P<0.01), and the tumor burden significantly decreased (P<0.01) in each Shaoyaotang dose group. On days 28 and 98, MDSCs and Tregs in the spleen of the medium- and high-dose Shaoyaotang groups were significantly reduced (P<0.01), while CD4+ T cells and the CD4+/CD8+ T cell ratio were significantly increased (P<0.01). The proportion of CD8+ T cells in the spleen and the expression levels of PD-1 and PD-L1 in the colon tissues of mice in each Shaoyaotang dose group were significantly increased to varying degrees (P<0.05, P<0.01). On days 28 and 98, the expression of p-AMPK-positive cells in the colon tissue of the medium- and high-dose Shaoyaotang groups was significantly increased (P<0.01), while the expression of p-NF-κB and HIF-1α was significantly reduced (P<0.01). ConclusionShaoyaotang can regulate MDSC recruitment and modulate the immune function of T lymphocyte subsets to inhibit the occurrence and development of AOM/DSS-induced CAC in mice. The mechanism may be related to the activation of the AMPK/NF-κB/HIF-1α pathway.

Tumor immune homeostasis is a dynamic equilibrium state in which the body removes abnormal mutated cells in time to prevent tumor development without damaging other normal cells under the surveillance of the immune system. It is an important concept to understand the process of tumor development. Programmed cell death (PCD) is a kind of regulable cell death including various forms such as apoptosis, autophagy, pyroptosis, necrosis, and ferroptosis. It is regarded as an important way for the body to remove abnormal or mutated cells. In recent years, modern research has found that PCD has a bi-directional regulatory effect on carcinogenesis and tumor development. In the early stage of tumor formation, PCD can control tumor development in time by playing a specific immune clearance role, while in the later tumorigenic stage, PCD can promote the growth and development of tumor cells by forming a tumor-specific microenvironment, resulting in carcinogenic effects. Therefore, PCD is regarded as an important way to maintain tumor immune homeostasis. Based on the idea of ''supporting the vital Qi and cultivating the root'' by professors Yu Guiqing and Piao Bingkui, the team proposed the theory of ''regulating Qi and resolving toxins'' and applied it to clinical tumor prevention and treatment. Based on the theory of ''regulating Qi and resolving toxins'', the research summarized the current progress of modern medical research on mechanisms related to PCD to explore the role of PCD in the regulation of tumor immune homeostasis. The article believed that the harmonious state of Qi movement was the basic condition for normal PCD to maintain tumor immune homeostasis, while the disorder of Qi movement and the evolution of tumor toxicity were the core processes of abnormal PCD and disorder of tumor immunity homeostasis, which led to the escape and development of tumor cells. Therefore, under the guidance of ''regulating Qi and removing toxins'', the idea of full-cycle prevention and treatment of tumors was proposed summarily. In the early stage of tumor formation, the method of ''regulating Qi movement and strengthening vital Qi'' was applied to reestablish tumor immune homeostasis and to promote the elimination of abnormal cells. In the late tumorigenic stage, the method of ''resolving toxins and dispelling evils'' was applied to reverse the specific microenvironment of tumors and inhibit the development of tumor cells, with a view to providing new theoretical support for the prevention and treatment of tumors through traditional Chinese medicine.

Sepsis is the most common complication of severe burns and a primary risk factor for endangering the lives of critically severe burn patients. The mortality rate of burn sepsis patients was up to 75%. Neutrophils are one of the innate immune cells and are the earliest and most recruited immune cells at the site of infection, which play a key role in the removal of local infection and the repair of damaged tissue. Many studies have deeply revealed the pathogenesis and progression mechanism of burn sepsis, in which the role of neutrophils has gradually become clear. This paper elaborated on the key mechanisms of neutrophils in the occurrence and evolution of burn sepsis, explored the value of neutrophils in the early warning and prognosis judgement, and the potential therapeutic methods of burn sepsis based on the unique biological behavior of neutrophils in burn sepsis.
