This paper systematically expounds the core challenges and development vision facing transfusion medicine and discipline construction in China under the strategic goals of achieving "Chinese modernization" and "Healthy China". This article puts forward for the first time the "blood transfusion view" of Chinese blood transfusion practitioners and elaborates on key challenges in the field, including the disciplinary system, talent pool, service balance, technical bottlenecks and standardization in emerging fields. To address the challenges, it is urgently necessary to establish the disciplinary status of transfusion medicine, improve talent cultivation, enhance the integration of scientific research and technology, optimize transfusion assessment, promote autologous blood transfusion, advance the localization of evidence-based medicine, and expand the management functions of biological therapy. The ultimate goal is to build a modern blood transfusion system led by science and technology and with Chinese characteristics to safeguard people's health.

[Objective] To extract hemoglobin (Hb) from red blood cells using osmotic pressure swelling method, expected to achieve a hemoglobin dissolution rate of ≥80% and a cell membrane integrity rate of ≥70%. [Methods] Human umbilical cord blood red blood cells were used as raw materials and phosphate buffer solution was used as the swelling solution for red blood cells. A three factor three-level orthogonal experiment (n=3) was conducted to determine the optimal matching conditions for selecting the osmolality molar concentration of phosphate buffer solution, pH value of hypotonic phosphate buffer solution and volume ratio of hypotonic phosphate buffer solution to washed red blood cells. Red blood cell swelling solution samples (n=6) were prepared by the optimal matching conditions and the original process conditions. The hemoglobin dissolution rate and cell membrane integrity rate were checked. In the expanded comparative experiment, red blood cell swelling solution samples (n=6) were prepared by the optimal matching conditions and the original process conditions, which was filtered by ultrafiltration membranes. The filtration time and hemoglobin yield were checked. [Results] The optimal matching conditions for preparing red blood cell swelling solution were obtained through orthogonal experiment as follows: osmotic pressure molar concentration was 30 mOsmol/Kg, pH was 7.8, and phosphate buffer to red blood cell volume ratio was 6∶1. On the basis of the above conditions, the red blood cell swelling solution sample was compared with the original process sample: the hemoglobin dissolution rate was (82.4±1.8)% vs (78.6±3.0)% (P<0.05), and the cell membrane integrity rate was (65.8±4.0)% vs (28.7±2.3)% (P<0.05). In the expanded comparative experiment, the optimal matching conditions were compared with the original process conditions: filtration time(s) (327±9) vs (434±13) (P<0.05), and hemoglobin yield was (72.3±1.2)% vs (66.0±1.4)% (P<0.05). [Conclusion] Compared with the original preparation process, the hemoglobin extraction process which optimized through orthogonal experiments greatly reduces the cell membrane fragmentation rate and minimizes the entry of cell membrane matrix into the target solution, ensuring a slightly higher hemoglobin dissolution rate, and reducing the preparation difficulty for the subsequent cell membrane separation and further purification.

[Objective] To investigate the protective effect of Salvia miltiorrhiza injection (SMI) on the kidneys of HBOC-CHP01 resuscitated haemorrhagic shock rats. [Methods] A 50% haemorrhagic shock rat model was established, with 12 rats divided into two groups: SMI + HBOC-CHP01 group and HBOC-CHP01 group, with 6 rats in each group. The rats in the SMI+ HBOC-CHP01 group were given an equal volume of HBOC-CHP01 for resuscitation after haemorrhagic shock, and an 8 mL/kg dose of SMI. Rats in the HBOC-CHP01 group were resuscitated by administering an equilibrium blood loss volume of HBOC-CHP01 and given an 8 mL/kg dose of 0.9% NaCl solution. Blood was taken from rats at five points: before bloodletting (baseline), during haemorrhagic shock (HS), immediately after resuscitation (RS0h), 1 h after resuscitation (RS1h), and 24 h after resuscitation (RS24h). A blood gas analyser was used to detect the lactate level (Lac), glucose content (Glu), residual base (BEecf), pH, bicarbonate (HCO3-), high iron haemoglobin (MetHb). White blood cells (WBC), platelets (PLT), haemoglobin content (Hb), carboxyhaemoglobin (COHb) were detected using a quintuple classification. Blood creatinine (SCr), uric acid (UA), kidney-related indexes were detected using biochemistry instrument. Kidney tissues of the rats were taken after 24 h of resuscitation and after execution, and the inflammation of kidneys of the rats of the two groups was analyzed using HE staining. Fluorescence staining was used to detect the level of ROS in the kidneys of rats in both groups. [Results] At RS 0h, the Beecf, Glu and Lac levels of rats in the SMI+HBOC-CHP01 group were significantly lower than those of rats in the HBOC-CHP01 group, and the pH level of rats in the SMI+HBOC-CHP01 group was significantly higher than that of rats in the HBOC-CHP01 group, and the Glu levels of rats in the SMI+HBOC-CHP01 group were significantly lower than those of rats in the HBOC-CHP01 group at RS 1h. At RS 0h, the WBC, PLT and COHb contents of rats in the SMI+HBOC-CHP01 group were all significantly higher than those of rats in the HBOC-CHP01 group, and at RS 1h, the WBC content of rats in the SMI+HBOC-CHP01 group was significantly higher than that of rats in the HBOC-CHP01 group; at RS 1h, the UA content of rats in the SMI+HBOC-CHP01 group was significantly lower than that of rats in the HBOC-CHP01 group; at RS 24h, the SCr content of rats in the SMI+HBOC-CHP01 group was significantly lower than that of rats in the HBOC-CHP01 group; at RS 24h, the inflammation level of kidney tissues of rats in the SMI+HBOC-CHP01 group was significantly lower than that of rats in the HBOC -CHP01 group rats, and the ROS and MPO levels in the kidney tissues of rats in the SMI+HBOC-CHP01 group were significantly lower than those of rats in the HBOC-CHP01 group. [Conclusion] The combination of Salvia miltiorrhiza injection during the resuscitation of rats with severe haemorrhagic shock by HBOC-CHP01 can alleviate renal injury by reducing inflammatory response and oxidative stress.

Objective: To study the effect of nano hemoglobin-based oxygen carrier (nano-HBOC) on radiosensitivity of lung cancer H385 cells. Methods: Using 95% N and 5% CO , a lung cancer cell line was constructed in a hypoxic environment, and H385 cells were treated with different concentrations of nano-HBOC and irradiated (4Gy) by an irradiator, and the IC50 concentration was calculated. The cells were detected by flow cytometry (reactive oxygen species, ROS) ROS test. Using GEO database, KEGG pathway enrichment analysis was carried out to predict possible pathways. The levels of lipid peroxidation and Fe were observed by fluorescence microscope, and the proteins related to iron death pathway were detected by Western-blot. Results: Compared with the control cells, the activity and density of the cells were significantly decreased by nano-HBOC combined with radiotherapy, with a notable proportion of cells exhibiting deteriorated status. There is a positive correlation between ROS level and nano-HBOC concentration, especially after radiotherapy. Radiotherapy combined with nano-HBOC significantly increased the levels of lipid peroxidation and Fe in H385 cells, while decreasing the levels of iron death pathway proteins slc7a11 and GPX4, and increasing the level of ACSL4. Conclusion: Nano-HBOC enhances the radiosensitivity of lung cancer H385 cells.

Objective To systematically analyze and identify key risk factors for postoperative pulmonary hemorrhage u-sing a combination of the random forest(RF)model and traditional logistic regression analysis,so as to provide data support for clinical practice.Methods This study included patients who underwent needle biopsy of lung masses from January 2020 to December 2023 in the Department of Interventional Therapy,Cancer Hospital,Tianjin Medical University.There were 844 cases,including 387 males and 457 females,ranging in age from 39 to 82 years.Clinical data and puncture-related characteristics were collected,including tumor size,puncture depth,puncture angle,presence of emphysema,lesion loca-tion in the lung,body position during puncture,whether the puncture passed through the interlobar fissure,and the number of punctures.The RF model was used to rank the importance of all variables,identifying those with the highest predictive value.Subsequently,a multivariate logistic regression model was applied to the top-ranked important variables to further e-valuate their independent impact on postoperative pulmonary hemorrhage.Results The RF model results showed that tumor size and puncture depth had the highest importance in predicting the risk of postoperative pulmonary hemorrhage.Multivari-ate logistic regression analysis further confirmed that smaller tumor size(HR:0.980,95％CI:0.971-0.989,P＜0.05)was significantly associated with a lower risk of hemorrhage,while greater puncture depth(HR:1.146,95％CI:1.063-1.235,P＜0.05)was closely related to a higher risk of hemorrhage.Additionally,other factors such as puncture angle,age,lesion location in the lung and presence of emphysema showed some influence but did not reach statistical significance in the multi-variate analysis.Conclusion This study successfully identified tumor size and puncture depth as independent risk factors for postoperative pulmonary hemorrhage by combining the RF model with multivariate logistic regression analysis.The appli-cation of the RF model improved the accuracy of feature selection,allowing us to focus on the most contributory predictive variables.These findings provide important support for preoperative risk assessment,suggesting that clinicians should priori-tize these key factors in preoperative evaluations to develop safer and more effective surgical plans,thereby reducing the risk of postoperative hemorrhage and other complications.

AIM:To investigate the impact of aquaporin 4(AQP4)expression inhibition on autophagy and apoptosis in a mouse model of cerebral ischemia-reperfusion(I/R)injury,and to elucidate its underlying mechanism.METHODS:Cerebral I/R injury was induced in mice via transient middle cerebral artery occlusion(tMCAO).Totally 60 mice were randomly divided into sham group,I/R group,AQP4 inhibition group,and 3-methyladenine(3-MA)group,with 15 mice in each group.Among them,the mice in sham and I/R groups received intraperitoneal injections of normal saline,while those in AQP4 inhibition group and 3-MA group received intraperitoneal injections of AER-271(2 mg·kg-1·d-1)and AER-271+3-MA(2 mg·kg-1·d-1)for 3 d,respectively,once per day.Longa score was adopted to assess the neu-rological function,and to record changes in body weight.Cerebral infarction volume and histopathological alterations were evaluated using hematoxylin-eosin staining.Western blot analysis was performed to determine the levels of AQP4,LC3-Ⅱ,P62 and cleaved caspase-3,while the LC3-Ⅱ,P62,cleaved caspase-3 and NeuN(neuronal marker)colocalization and expression assessment were conducted with immunofluorescence.RESULTS:The mice in I/R and AQP4 inhibition groups exhibited extensive cerebral infarction,cerebral edema,and elevated Longa scores.However,in comparision to I/R group,the mice in AQP4 inhibition group showed significantly reduced cerebral infarct volume,cerebral edema vol-ume,and Longa score(P<0.05).Additionally,in contrast to sham group,the mice in I/R group displayed increased ex-pression of AQP4,LC3-Ⅱ and cleaved caspase-3(P<0.01),accompanied by decreased body weight and P62 expression(P<0.05 or P<0.01).Furthermore,compared with I/R group,the mice in both AQP4 inhibition group and 3-MA group demonstrated a decrease in the expression levels of AQP4,LC3-Ⅱ and cleaved caspase-3(P<0.05 or P<0.01),along with increased body weight and P62 expression(P<0.05 or P<0.01).Nonetheless,no significant differences were ob-served between AQP4 inhibition group and 3-MA group regarding Longa score,cerebral infarct volume,body weight,and the expression of AQP4,LC3-Ⅱ,cleaved caspase-3 and P62.CONCLUSION:Inhibition of AQP4 expression signifi-cantly reduces cerebral infarction area and nerve injury severity in tMCAO mice.Moreover,AQP4 expression inhibition decelerates autophagy and apoptosis after cerebral infarction,with the additional autophagy inhibitor showing no notable impact on the protective effect of AQP4 inhibition.

【Objective】 To study the red blood cell substitute preparation method of glutaraldehyde(GDA) and Bis(3, 5-dibromosalicyl) fumarate(DBBF) double polymerized, and also observe its curative effect. 【Methods】 The affecting factors of the crosslink of DBBF and human placental hemoglobin(Hb) were selected, including solution pH, inositol hexaphosphoric acid concentration, and molar ratios of DBBF/Hb. The changes of P50, Hill Co and methemoglobin(MetHb) content during the preparation process were studied and the molar ratio of GDA to DBBF-Hb were determined. The final product was obtained through the steps of ultrafiltration, filtration, and deoxygenation, etc., and the final product was subjected to a study on the curative effect of anti-hemorrhagic shock in rats. 【Results】 Under the condition of pH 8.0, the concentration of inositol hexaphosphoric acid was 10mM/L, the molar ratio of DBBF/hemoglobin was 6∶1, the content of dimer was(22.67±3.28)%, the content of tetramer was (74.64±7.05)%, and its P50 was (25.25±2.31) mmHg. As the molar ratio of DBBF/Hb increased, P50 and MetHb content would gradually increase, while the Hill Co will gradually decrease. The molar ratio of GDA and DBBF-Hb was 7∶1, the content of dimer was (8.23±0.79)%, the content of tetramer was (27.87±3.63)%, the content of super-macromolecule was (1.05±0.31)%. As the molar ratio of GDA and DBBF/Hb increased, MetHb content would increase, while the P50 and Hill Co would gradually decrease. The 24h survival rate of the product in rats with hemorrhagic shock was 83.33%(10/12), which was significantly higher than that in the negative control group[41.67%(5/12)], while similar with the positive control group [91.67%(11/12)]. 【Conclusion】 The red blood cell substitutes with GDA and DBBF double polymerized can effectively reduce the dimer content, which is more conducive to industrial production, and has a positive effect on the treatment of hemorrhagic shock.
