OBJECTIVE To establish a method for simultaneous determination of venetoclax， busulfan and voriconazole in plasma of patients with acute myeloid leukemia （AML）， and apply it clinically. METHODS Plasma samples were subjected to protein precipitation using acetonitrile and subsequently analyzed by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry （LC-MS/MS） using venetoclax-D 8 ， busulfan-D 8 and posaconazole as internal standards. The separation was performed on a Phenomenex Kinetex ® C 18 column with a mobile phase composed of 0.1% formic acid solution （2 mmol/L ammonium acetate）-0.1% formic acid in acetonitrile （gradient elution） at a flow rate of 0.8 mL/min. The column temperature was set at 40 ℃， the sample size was 5 μL， and the total run time was 3.10 min. An electrospray ionization source was employed， and positive ion scanning was conducted using multiple reaction monitoring mode. The ion pairs used for quantitative analysis included m/z 868.4→636.3 （venetoclax）， m/z 264.1→151.1 （busulfan）， and m/z 350.1→224.0 （voriconazole）. The above LC-MS/MS method was adopted to determine plasma concentrations of venetoclax and voriconazole in 10 AML patients， as well as plasma concentration of busulfan in 5 patients undergoing conditioning treatment for allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. RESULTS The linear ranges of venetoclax， busulfan and voriconazole were 50-10 000， 15-3 000 and 50-10 000 ng/mL， respectively （ R 2 ≥0.999 0）， with lower limits of quantification of 50， 15 and 50 ng/mL， respectively. The RSDs of intra-day and inter-day precision tests for all three analytes were all less than 10%， with accuracy （relative errors） ranging from －10.00% to 12.96%. The average extraction recovery ranged from 92.54% to 100.95%， and the average matrix effect was 89.98%-101.49%. Dilution reliability covered all dilution factors used in the test samples， and the absolute values of relative errors in stability tests were all≤16.25%. The plasma concentrations of venetoclax， busulfan and voriconazole in enrolled patients were 496.20-4 250.45， 233.48-2 002.28 and 475.51-5 710.18 ng/mL， respectively. CONCLUSIONS The LC-MS/MS method established in this study is rapid， sensitive and easy to operate， and can be used for the therapeutic drug monitoring of venetoclax， busulfan and voriconazole.

Background: High-mobility group box protein 1 (HMGB1) is a chromatin-binding protein involved in arthritis, ischemia, sepsis, atherosclerosis, neurodegenerative disorders, meningitis, and cancer. HMGB1 exhibits dual roles in cancer, acting as either a tumor suppressor or oncoprotein depending on context. Objective: This research aimed to elucidate HMGB1’s functional significance in cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC). Methods: We overexpressed HMGB1 in cSCC cell lines using recombinant adenovirus and examined its effects on cell proliferation, colony formation, and cell migration. Results: Immunohistochemical analysis revealed elevated HMGB1 expression levels in cSCC tissue relative to normal epidermis. To assess the influence of HMGB1, we employed recombinant adenoviruses expressing HMGB1 to transduce SCC cell lines (SCC12 and SCC13). Enhanced HMGB1 expression significantly promoted cellular proliferation and colony formation capacity.Notably, HMGB1 overexpression elevated the levels of proliferation regulators, including P63, SOX2, CDK4 and CDK6. Furthermore, HMGB1 overexpression substantially enhanced tumor invasiveness, accompanied by upregulation of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) biomarkers. Mechanistically, overexpression of HMGB1 enhanced transforming growth factor-β signaling by increasing phosphorylation of SMAD2/3, the key mediators of EMT. Conclusion These data imply that HMGB1 acts as a tumor-promoting factor in cSCC.

Objective This study reports on the obligatory parasitism of water mites Arrenurus sp. on Anopheles messeae at the Manzhouli Port, Inner Mongolia, China. Methods Duing July 2024, a survey on the mosquito diversity was conducted at the Manzhouli Port. Captured mosquitoes and their ectoparasites were identified to species level. Results A total of 1840 adult mosquitoes were collected, representing species from three genera: Culex(Cx. modestus, Cx. pipiens pallens), Aedes(Ae. dorsalis, Ae. flavidorsalis, Ae. flavescens), and Anopheles (An. messeae). Among all the mosqutioes specimens,3 out of 150 captured An. messeae were found to carry ectoparasitic mites, with number of 2,4,27 mites separately. Morphological and molecular identification reached the same result as water mites(Hydrachnidiae, Hydracrina). COI gene sequence showed 94% similarity with the closest species Arrenurus truncatellus. Conlusions Literature review suggests water mites are host-specific parasitism of mosquito species and herein with the first record of Arrenurus sp. parasiting on An. Messeae in the most high-latitude region globally.

Objective:To explore the distribution of pathogenic bacteria causing postoperative infections in chil-dren undergoing surgery for Hirschsprung's disease(HD),and the clinical significance of serum triggering receptor ex-pressed on myeloid cells-1(sTREM-1)and high mobility group box 1(HMGB1).Methods:98 children with HD admit-ted from January 2021 to January 2025 were divided into infection group(n=42)and non-infection group(n=56)accord-ing to whether the children were complicated with infection after operation.Automatic bacterial identification system was used to detect the distribution of pathogenic bacteria in secretion samples from infected sites of HD children after operation.ELISA was used to measure serum sTREM-1 and HMGB1.ROC was used to explore the diagnostic value of serum sTREM-1 and HMGB1 for severe infection in children with HD.Results:A total of 49 strains of pathogenic bac-teria were isolated from 42 children with HD in infection group,of which 63.27%(31/49)were gram-negative bacteria,accounting for the highest proportion,followed by Gram positive bacteria at 30.61%(15/49)and fungi at 6.12%(3/49).Among them,Pseudomonas aeruginosa had the highest proportion of 24.49%(12/49)among Gram negative bacteria.there were 15 cases of mild infection(15 strains of pathogens),16 cases of moderate infection(17 strains of pathogens)and 11 cases of severe infection(17 strains of pathogens).With the aggravation of the infection degree of HD children,the distribution pattern of pathogenic bacteria changed,and gradually changed to mainly gram-negative bacteria infec-tion.Compared with non infected group,the levels of serum sTREM-1 and HMGB1 in infected group were higher(P<0.05).The levels of serum sTREM-1 and HMGB1 in children with severe HD infection are higher than those in children with mild and moderate HD infection(P<0.05).The AUC of the combined diagnosis of serum sTREM-1 and HMGB1 for severe infection in HD children was the highest,at 0.985,which was superior to the separate diagnosis of serum sTREM-1 and HMGB1(Zcombination-sTREM-1=1.988,P=0.047;Zcombination-HMGB1=2.126,P=0.034).Conclusion:Serum sTREM-1 and HMGB1 are elevated in HD children with postoperative infection,and the pathogenic bacteria are mainly gram-negative bacteria.In addition,the combined detection of the two provides a reference for the clinical diagnosis of severe infection in HD children.
