SMYD5 is a ribosomal methyltransferase with SET and MYND structural domains, which is a member of the SMYD family and is expressed in a variety of tissues, including ovary and testis. This enzyme participates in biological processes such as gene expression regulation, cell development and differentiation, and maintenance of genomic stability through ribosomal protein methylation modification. In recent years, research on SMYD5 has increased in cancers including hepatocellular carcinoma, gastric adenocarcinoma, and lung cancer. Studies have revealed that SMYD5 exhibits high expression levels in various diseases including hepatocellular carcinoma, gastric adenocarcinoma, lung cancer, and inflammatory bowel disease, influencing the progression of these conditions. This review summarizes the role of SMYD5 in hepatocellular carcinoma, inflammatory bowel disease, and other biological functions, aiming to provide a reference for related disease research.

Objective:To investigate the expression of interleukin (IL)-22 in lung adenocarcinoma and its effect and possible mechanism for lung adenocarcinoma metastasis.Methods:The cancer tissues and paired adjacent normal tissues (>2 cm from the tumor edge) surgically removed from 27 lung adenocarcinoma patients in Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute & Hospital from January to June 2023 were retrospectively collected. Flow cytometry was used to detect the expression levels of IL-22 in T cells of all tissues, and the expression levels of IL-22 in T cells were compared between cancer and adjacent tissues, as well as between lung cancer tissues of patients with and without lymph node metastasis. The cancer tissues and paired adjacent normal tissues were retrospectively collected from 6 patients with lung adenocarcinoma during the same period, and the expression level of IL-22 receptor IL-22RA1 in the tissues was detected by Western blotting. IL-22RA1 transcriptome data from cancer tissues of lung adenocarcinoma patients in 3 datasets in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database and the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database were collected. Using the R software survminer package to select the optimal critical value of IL-22RA1 that reflected the survival relationship, and patients were divided into high and low IL-22RA1 groups based on this. The survival package was used to draw the overall survival curve and log-rank test was performed for inter group comparison. Recombinant IL-22 was used to treat human lung adenocarcinoma A549 cells and mouse lung adenocarcinoma LLC cells, with cells not treated with IL-22 as controls; Transwell assay was used to detect the number of migrating cells in each group; Western blotting was used to detect the expression levels of ERK, AKT and STAT signaling pathways-related proteins, matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9) and epithelial cadherin (E-cad) in each group of cells. The expression levels of these proteins in A549 cells and LLC cells were also measured after the addition of STAT3 inhibitor C188-9, AKT inhibitor MK-2206 and ERK inhibitor SCH772984. A lung metastasis model of LLC cells was constructed using 10 C57BL/6 mice, the mice were randomly divided into the experimental group and the control group using simple randomization method. IL-22 neutralizing antibody (50 μg/mouse) and non-neutralizing control antibody (50 μg/mouse) were injected once every other day. On the 10th day, the mice were euthanized and dissected to count lung metastatic nodules. The metastatic lung tissue was stained with HE and the metastatic foci were counted. Flow cytometry was used to detect the proportion of CD4 + T cells and CD8 + T cells to immune cells in single cells prepared from metastatic lung tissue. Results:The flow cytometry analysis showed that the proportion of IL-22 + CD4 + T cells in T cells (labeled with CD3 and CD45) in 27 clinically collected lung adenocarcinoma tissues [ M ( Q1, Q3)] was higher than that in adjacent normal tissues [0.28% (0.04%, 1.00%) vs. 0.01% (0.00%, 0.25%)]. The proportion of IL-22 + CD4 + T cells in lung adenocarcinoma tissues of patients with metastasis (9 cases) was higher than that of patients without metastasis (18 cases) [1.06% (0.49%, 4.72%) vs. 0.15% (0.00%, 0.35%)], and the differences were statistically significant (both P < 0.01). Western blotting analysis showed that the relative expression level of IL-22RA1 protein in lung adenocarcinoma tissues was higher than that in adjacent normal tissues (1.03±0.25 vs. 0.35±0.10), and the difference was statistically significant ( P < 0.05). The overall survival of the IL-22RA1 low expression group in lung adenocarcinoma tissues was better than that of the IL-22RA1 high expression group in the TCGA database and GEO databases GSE42127, GSE29016 and GSE26939 datasets, and the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.001). Transwell assay showed that A549 cells [(744±40) cells, (770±64) cells vs. (403±42) cells] and LLC cells [(167±39) cells, (246±80) cells vs. (31±5) cells] treated with 100 and 200 ng/ml IL-22 for 24 hours had fewer migration numbers than the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (both P < 0.01). Western blotting analysis showed that during treatment with 100 ng/ml recombinant IL-22 for 15-1 440 minutes, the levels of p-STAT3, p-ERK and p-AKT proteins in A549 and LLC cells were higher than those in the control group, while there was no difference in the levels of E-cad and MMP-9 proteins between the two groups. After the combined treatment of recombinant IL-22 and STAT3, AKT or ERK inhibitor, the corresponding levels of p-STAT3, p-AKT and p-ERK proteins in A549 and LLC cells were similar to those in cells without inhibitor and recombinant IL-22 treatment, but significantly lower than those in cells treated with recombinant IL-22 alone. In the dissected lung tissues of mice lung metastasis models, the experimental group had fewer metastatic lung nodules than the control group (2.3±0.6 vs. 7.0±2.0), and the difference was statistically significant ( t = 3.88, P = 0.018). In the morphological observation of lung metastasis tissues, the experimental group had fewer metastatic lesions than the control group (1.8±0.8 vs. 5.4±1.1), and the difference was statistically significant ( t = 5.69, P < 0.001). Flow cytometry analysis showed that the proportion of CD8 + T cells in immune cells in the lung tissues of mice in the experimental group (labeled with CD45) was higher than that in the control group [(27±5)% vs. (15±5)%], and the difference was statistically significant ( t = 3.01, P = 0.040). There was no statistically significant difference in the proportion of CD4 + T cells in immune cells between the two groups ( P > 0.05). Conclusions:The expression levels of IL-22 and its receptor IL-22RA1 in lung adenocarcinoma tissues are higher than those in adjacent normal tissues, and the high expression level of IL-22RA1 in cancer tissues may be associated with poor prognosis of patients; on the one hand, IL-22 may promote the migration of lung adenocarcinoma cells by activating the ERK, AKT and STAT3 signaling pathways, and on the other hand, it may promote lung adenocarcinoma metastasis by reducing CD8 + T cell infiltration in the immune microenvironment of lung adenocarcinoma.

OBJECTIVE To explore the correlation between changes in intestinal toxicity and changes in component composition of the Mongolian medicine Euphorbiae pekinensis Radix(EPR)before and after processing with milk.METHODS Mice were given 95%ethanol extract of raw EPR,milk-processed EPR and water-processed EPR by gavage.The purgative effect and intestinal inflam-matory toxicity changes of EPR before and after milk processing were investigated using the fecal water content and the levels of inflam-matory factors TNF-α and IL-1β in each intestinal segment of mice as indicators;LC-MS/MS was used to analyze the composition changes of the 95%alcohol extract of EPR before and after milk processing.RESULTS Compared with the blank group,the raw and water processed products of EPR could significantly increase the water content of mouse feces and the levels of TNF-α and IL-1β in each intestinal segment(P<0.05);compared with the raw product group,all indicators in the milk processing group were significantly reduced(P<0.05),while there was no significant difference in the water processing group,indicating that water processing cannot at-tenuate toxicity,and the auxiliary material milk is the key auxiliary material to reduce the toxicity of EPR.Mass spectrometry analysis results showed that a total of 50 components were identified in EPR,including 38 terpenoid components,6 phenolic acid components,and 6 other components.The content of each component decreased to varying degrees after milk processing.Principal component analy-sis(PCA)and orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis(OPLS-DA)were performed on the mass spectrum data of raw ma-terials and products,and it was found that the components of raw materials and products can be obviously clustered into 2 categories.13 differential components of raw materials and products were screened through t test,and 11 of which were terpene compo-nents,indicating that the composition of terpene components changed significantly after milk processing.17 components derived from EPR were detected in the residual liquid of milk excipients after processing,of which 16 were terpenoids,indicating that the terpenoid components of EPR were transferred to the excipient milk during the soaking and processing processes.CONCLUSION The toxicity of EPR is reduced and the purgative effect is alleviated after milk processing.The attenuation mechanism may be that during the milk soaking and processing processes,terpenoid components are transferred to the milk,and the content of toxic components in the decoc-tion pieces is reduced,thereby reducing the toxicity.

Objective:To investigate the mechanism of bladder cancer treatment by using Scutellaria barbata and Codonopsis pilosula drug pair through network pharmacology. Methods:The drug composition of the drug pair was screened using TCMSP, and their action targets were predicted using Swiss Target Prediction. GeneCards was used to obtain disease targets of bladder cancer, and venny 2.1 was used to obtain intersection targets. PPI analysis was performed using STRING, and a network diagram was constructed using Cytoscape. GO and KEGG analysis were conducted using Metascape. A drug-target-pathway network map was constructed using Cytoscape software. Nude mice were randomly divided into a model group and a treatment group to establish a bladder cancer mouse model. On the 8th day after model formation, the mice in the model group were administered intragastrically with a dose of 342.86 mg/kg, 0.2 ml, twice/day. On the 28th day after modeling, the tumor size of nude mice was measured. Prostaglandin G/H Synthetase 2 (PTGS2), PTGS1, Nuclear Receptor Coactivator 2 (NCOA2), Retinoic Acid X Receptor α (RXRA), Progesterone Receptor (PGR), Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase 1 (MAPK1), Reticuloendothelial Proliferation virus oncogene homology A (RELA), and Akt1 levels were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.Results:The results show that 45 active components of the drug pair directly acted on 187 disease targets through multiple pathways to treat bladder cancer, in which Quercetin, luteolin, wogonin, 7-Methoxy-2-methyl isoflavone, baicalein, beta-sitosterol, Stigmastero, and other core ingredients, as well as PTGS2, PTGS1, NCOA2, RXRA, PGR, MAPK1, RELA, and Akt1 are critical targets. The results of gene function annotation analysis show that the biological processes most likely related to crossover genes mainly involved responses to hormones, cell responses to lipids, responses to foreign stimuli, and responses to bacterial molecules. The cell components mainly involves transcription regulatory complexes, membrane rafts, membrane microregions, and RNA polymerase Ⅱ transcriptional regulatory complexes, etc. The molecular functions mainly involve transcription factor binding, DNA-binding transcription factor binding, RNA polymerase Ⅱ specific DNA-binding transcription factor binding, nuclear receptor activity, ligand-activated transcription factor activity, etc. The results of pathway enrichment analysis suggests that the main signaling pathways are AGE-RAGE, IL-17, PI3K-Akt, TNF, MAPK, HIF-1, apoptosis, p53, toll-like receptor, etc. Animal experiments show that the Scutellaria barbata and Codonopsis pilosula drug pair can significantly improve tumor size and also improve the expression levels of PTGS2, PTGS1, NCOA2, RXRA, PGR, MAPK1, RELA, and Akt1. Conclusions:The Scutellaria barbata and Codonopsis pilosula drug pair can regulate PTGS2, PTGS1, NCOA2, RXRA, PGR, MAPK1, RELA, and Akt1 and other diseases mainly through the regulation of AGE-RAGE, IL-17, PI3K-Akt, TNF, MAPK, HIF-1, apoptosis, p53, toll-like receptor, and other signaling pathways. Targeting enzyme activity and cell apoptosis can treat bladder cancer by regulating these biological processes.

Objective:To investigate the clinical and pathological features of congenital hepatic fibrosis (CHF).Methods:The clinical and pathological findings of 20 patients diagnosed with CHF from 2017 to 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.Results:Among the 20 patients, 8 were males and 12 were females with a median age of 21.5 years. Mostly patients were admitted to the hospital with cirrhosis, portal hypertension and upper gastrointestinal bleeding. Pathological features were diffuse fibrosis in the portal area, formation of fibrous septa of varying width, segmentation of the liver parenchyma, with hyperplasia of small bile ducts. Among them, 1 case (5%) was complicated with Caroli's disease, and 1 case (5%) was HNF1α hepatocellular adenoma. IHC GS showed that was positively expressed in acinar region 3 in 75% cases.Conclusion:CHF is mainly manifested by portal hypertension and its complications. Histopathology is the gold standard for diagnosis. The possibility of CHF should be considered first in children and adolescents with portal hypertension but no history of hepatitis, and complicated kidney disease. The positive pattern of acinus-3 region of GS in IHC is helpful for the diagnosis of CHF.

Hip fracture is considered as the most severe osteoporotic fracture characterized by high disability and mortality in the elderly. Improved surgical techniques and multidisciplinary team play an active role in alleviating prognosis, which places higher demands on perioperative nursing. Dysfunction, complications, and secondary impact of anaesthesia and surgery add more difficulties to clinical nursing. Besides, there still lack clinical practices in perioperative nursing for elderly patients with hip fracture in China. In this context, led by the Orthopedic Nursing Committee of Chinese Nursing Association, the Expert consensus on clinical practice in perioperative nursing for elderly patients with hip fracture ( version 2023) is developed based on the evidence-based medicine. This consensus provides 11 recommendations on elderly patients with hip fracture from aspects of perioperative health education, condition monitoring and inspection, complication risk assessment and prevention, and rehabilitation, in order to provide guiding advices for clinical practice, improve the quality of nursing and ameliorate the prognosis of elderly patients with hip fracture.

The grading of evidence is an important factor in clinical decision-making. The current evidence grading system based on western medicine is limited in the clinical practice of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), therefore we propose the solutions to the development of grading system for TCM interventional evidence, following the international evidence grading standards, taking into considerations of the unique characteristics of TCM practice, based on the Grades of recommendation, assessment, development and evaluation (GARDE) evaluation system, and integrating with grading system regarding TCM classical literature and empirical evidence from modern famous doctors. The evidence from classical literature is suggested to be evaluated from three aspects including source of ancient medical records, comprehensive of treatment details, and the inheritance. The qualification of famous doctors, content integrity, and inheritance of experiences will be used to evaluate the evidence from famous doctors' experience. The multi-sourced evidence such as TCM classical literature, experience of modern famous doctors, and modern researches is mainly integrated in a qualitative way, and the overall level of evidence of TCM interventions will be graded consistently with the GRADE system based on modern research. The evidence from classical literature and modern famous doctors' experience will be assessed and considered as supplementary evidence, which will make the evaluation of clinical evidence more objectively and comprehensively, thereby guiding clinical practice further.

Objective:To investigate the effect of nurse-led stress inoculation training on fear of self-injecting and self-testing and self-management behaviors in elderly type 2 diabetic patients and provide reference for diabetes nursing care.Methods:A total of 110 elderly type 2 diabetic patients of Department of Endocrinology of Hainan People′s Hospital from January 2018 to January 2020 were divided into experimental group and control group according to odd and even numbers, with 55 patients in each group. The control group received routine nursing care, while the experimental group implemented nurse-led stress inoculation training for 4 weeks. The intervention effect was assessed by Diabetes Fear of Injecting and Self-testing Ouestionnaire (D-FISQ) and Diabetes self-management behaviors among older (DSMB-O), respectively.Results:In the study, one patient in the experimental group fell off, and finally included 54 cases in the experimental group and 55 cases in the control group. After intervention, the fear of self-injecting scores, fear of self-testing scores, and total D-FISQ scores were 13.15 ± 3.02, 15.67 ± 3.59 and 28.81 ± 5.08 in the experimental group, significantly lower than those in the control group (15.25 ± 3.18, 17.56 ± 3.92 and 32.82 ± 4.89), the difference was statistically significant ( t=3.55, 2.63, 4.19, P<0.05). Active exercises, current medication, blood glucose monitoring, dealing with problem, active response, reducing risks scores and total DSMB-O scores were 2.39 ± 0.49, 2.39 ± 0.49, 2.20 ± 0.81, 4.41 ± 0.92, 4.70 ± 1.13, 5.06 ± 0.79 and 25.28 ± 2.57 in the experimental group, significantly higher than those in the control group (3.95 ± 0.85, 2.11 ± 0.85, 1.51 ± 0.50, 3.95 ± 0.78, 4.13 ± 1.43, 4.38 ± 1.16 and 22.09 ± 2.24), the difference was statistically significant ( t values were 2.10-6.90, P<0.05). Conclusions:Nurse-led stress inoculation training can effectively alleviate fear of self-injecting and self-testing and promote self-management behaviors of elderly patients with type 2 diabetes.
