To improve the targeted therapeutic effect of magnolol (Mag) on neuroblastoma, Mag-loaded mitochondria-targeting immunoliposomes modified by datuximab (aGD2) and triphenylphosphine (TPP) (Mag/aGD2-T-ILN) were prepared, and their physicochemical properties, targeting characteristics and anti-tumor activity were evaluated. Physico-chemical properties showed that the surface of Mag/aGD2-T-ILN was smooth and spherical, with good dispersibility. The particle sizes, PDI and Zeta potentials of Mag/aGD2-T-ILN were measured to be (136.5 ± 5.1) nm, 0.184 ± 0.010 and (27.5 ± 3.6) mV, respectively. Mag/aGD2-T-ILN could release the drug continuously and slowly, and maintain good stability at 4 ℃. Cytotoxicity test exhibited that the IC50 of 2-ME/aGD2-T-ILN was (4.07 ± 0.48) µmol/L, and compared with free Mag, the toxicity of Mag/aGD2-T-ILN to SH-SY5Y cells increased by 6.4 times. Cellular binding and uptake assays suggested that Rho-aGD2-T-ILN could specifically target GD2-positive tumor cells and then further reach their mitochondria. Therapeutic efficacy indicated that Mag/aGD2-T-ILN could better suppress the growth of SH-SY5Y tumor cells in the body with lower toxicity and less side-effects. The results demonstrated that the Mag/aGD2-T-ILN nanoparticles system could achieve intracellular endocytosis through specific binding of antibodies and antigens between the carrier and the surface of tumor cells and electrostatic interaction, then effectively delivered and released the drugs into mitochondria by crossing the mitochondrial phospholipid membrane through TPP, and thus achieving mitochondria-targeting therapy of Mag/aGD2-T-ILN. Through the construction of this active targeting delivery system, the clinical application value of datuximab and Mag is improved, providing a novel approach for the clinical treatment of neuroblastoma.

Objective To analyze the characteristics of visceral leishmaniasis cases in Henan Province, so as to provide insights into formulation of the visceral leishmaniasis control srtrategy. Methods All epidemiological data of reported visceral leishmaniasis cases in Henan Province from 2021 to 2023 were retrieved from the National Notifiable Disease Report Information Management System of Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, and the epidemiological features and diagnosis of visceral leishmaniasis cases were descriptively analyzed. Results A total of 93 visceral leishmaniasis cases were reported in Henan Province from 2021 to 2023, with a male to female ratio of 2.58∶1, and including 2 imported cases from other provinces and 91 local cases. The number of visceral leishmaniasis cases peaked during the period between March and May, and between July and October. The reported visceral leishmaniasis cases had ages of 7 months to 74 years, with the largest number of cases found at ages of 0 to 9 years (26 cases, 27.96%), followed by at ages of 60 to 70 years (24 cases, 25.81%). Farmer (47 cases, 50.54%) and diaspora children (19 cases, 20.43%) were predominant occupations, and 91 local visceral leishmaniasis cases were found in 6 cities of Zhengzhou, Luoyang, Anyang, Hebi, Sanmenxia and Xuchang. The median duration from onset of visceral leishmaniasis to diagnosis was 20 days, and there were 25.81% (24/93) cases with 10 days and less duration from onset to diagnosis, 38.71% (36/93) cases receiving diagnosis at 11 to 30 days following onset, and 35.48% (33/93) cases receiving diagnosis for more than 30 days following onset. All cases were predominantly diagnosed in province- (60.00%) and city-level (28.89%) medical institutions. Conclusions The number of visceral leishmaniasis is on the rise in Henan Province, with a gradually expanding coverage. Intensified monitoring of visceral leishmaniasis cases, dogs, and vectors, dog management, sandflies control and improved individual protection are recommended to prevent the spread of visceral leishmaniasis.

Oral diseases concern almost every individual and are a serious health risk to the popula-tion.The restorative treatment of tooth and jaw defects is an important means to achieve oral function and support the appearance of the contour.Based on the principle of"learning from the nature",Deng Xu-liang's group of Peking University School and Hospital of Stomatology has proposed a new concept of"microstructural biomimetic design and tissue adaptation of tooth/jaw materials"to address the worldwide problems of difficulty in treating dentine hypersensitivity,poor prognosis of restoration of tooth defects,and vertical bone augmentation of alveolar bone after tooth loss.The group has broken through the bottle-neck of multi-stage biomimetic technology from the design of microscopic features to the enhancement of macroscopic effects,and invented key technologies such as crystalline/amorphous multi-level assembly,ion-transportation blocking,and multi-physical properties of the micro-environment reconstruction,etc.The group also pioneered the cationic-hydrogel desensitizer,digital stump and core integrated restora-tions,and developed new crown and bridge restorative materials,gradient functionalisation guided tissue regeneration membrane,and electrically responsive alveolar bone augmentation restorative membranes,etc.These products have established new clinical strategies for tooth/jaw defect repair and achieved inno-vative results.In conclusion,the research results of our group have strongly supported the theoretical im-provement of stomatology,developed the technical system of oral hard tissue restoration,innovated the clinical treatment strategy,and led the progress of the stomatology industry.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the situ ation and characteristics of ADR reports in the elderly patients (≥65 years old ) of Sichuan province ,and to provide reference for guaranteeing the safety of drug use. METHODS :ADR reporting data of elderly patients collected by spontaneous reporting system of Sichuan ADR monitoring center from 2013 to 2019 were collected ,and then analyzed in respects of report types ,reproting institution ,relationship,patienst’age,gender,nationality,drug type ,organ/system invovled. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS :In the past seven years ,175 431 cases spontaneous ADR were collected by Sichuan ADR monitoring center ,and the annual proportion of “general”ADR reports decreased from 78.93% in 2013 to 60.50% year by year ; the annual proportion of “new general ”and“serious”ADRs increased year by year ,among which that of “new general ”ADR increased more obviously. The main reporting institutions were medical institutions ,accounting for 92.79%-98.87% of the total annual reports. The enthusiasm of enterprises and individuals to report ADR needed to be improved ;8 031 cases(4.58%)were “positive”relationship,21 283 cases(12.13%)were“likely”,146 117 cases(83.29%)were“possible”. Except that the gender of 272 cases were not reported ,there were 88 176 male cases and 86 983 female cases ;most of them were 65-74 years old (104 962 cases,59.83%). The reports covered 19 nationalities,among which the re were 166 752 cases(98.72%)of Han nationality. The distribution of ADR related drug categories in elderly patients of Yi , Tibetan and Qiang nationalities was significantly different from that of Han nationality (P<0.01). The top three drug categories in the total frequency were anti-infective drugs (31.10%),traditional Chinese medicine com (18.27%),and central nervous system drugs (9.99%). The injection route was the most likely to cause ADR (72.12%). ADR mainly involved s kin and its appendants (21.47%), gastrointestinal system (19.61%)and central and peripheral nervous system (18.55%). Aminophylline injection was the only dr ug in the top 10 drugs leading to “new general ”ADR for consecutive 7 years. Cefotaxime sodium for injection ,Ceftriaxone sodium for injection ,Cefoperazone sodium and sulbactam sodium for injection were the top 10 drugs causing “severe”ADR in consecutive 7 years,which should be paid more attention in clinic.

Objective To observe NLS-KALA-SA-PTX (NKSP) for lung adenocarcinoma cell line A549 in vitro with paclitaxel monotherapy, and the mechanism thereof. Methods MTT assay was used to detect A549 cell proliferation influ-enced by different concentrations of NKSP (20, 40, 80, 100μg/L) and paclitaxel monotherapy (20, 40, 80, 100μg/L) for 24 h, 48 h and 72 h.. Subsequent experiments were divided into four groups, namely, group A (without any drug treatment), group B (added polypeptide 80μg/L of self-assembled nanoparticles, NKS), group C (80μg/L paclitaxel monotherapy) and group D (80μg/L NKSP). Flow cytometry was used to detect the cell apoptotic rates after 48 h and 72 h treatment in four groups. Western blot assay was used to analyse the protein expressions of bax and caspase-3 after 48 h and 72 h treatment in four groups. Results Both paclitaxel monotherapy and NKSP can inhibit the proliferation of A549 cells. The inhibitory rates of paclitaxel monotherapy group at 48 h and 72 h and NKSP group at 72 h showed an increasing trend in a dose-depen-dent manner (P<0.05). After treatment for 48 hours, the apoptotic rate was significantly higher in D group than that of C group (P<0.05). But the apoptotic rate at 72 h was lower in D group than that of C group (P<0.05). The protein expressions of bax and caspase-3 at 48 h were significantl lower in D group than those of C group, which were higher at 72 h in D group than those of C group (P<0.05). Conclusion Compared to paclitaxel monotherapy group, NKS promotes slow release of pa-clitaxol, which reduces the cytotoxicity and extends the antitumor effects.
