Collagen-based materials, renowned for their biocompatibility and minimal immunogenicity, serve as exemplary substrates in a myriad of biomedical applications. Collagen-based micro/nanogels, in particular, are valued for their increased surface area, tunable degradation rates, and ability to facilitate targeted drug delivery, making them instrumental in advanced therapeutics and tissue engineering endeavors. Although extensive reviews on micro/nanogels exist, they tend to cover a wide range of biomaterials and lack a specific focus on collagen-based materials. The current review offers an in-depth look into the manufacturing technologies, drug release mechanisms, and biomedical applications of collagen-based micro/nanogels to address this gap. First, we provide an overview of the synthetic strategies that allow the precise control of the size, shape, and mechanical strength of these collagen-based micro/nanogels by controlling the degree of cross-linking of the materials. These properties are crucial for their performance in biomedical applications. We then highlight the environmental responsiveness of these collagen-based micro/nanogels, particularly their sensitivity to enzymes and pH, which enables controlled drug release under various pathological conditions. The discussion then expands to include their applications in cancer therapy, antimicrobial treatments, bone tissue repair, and imaging diagnosis, emphasizing their versatility and potential in these critical areas. The challenges and future perspectives of collagen-based micro/nanogels in the field are discussed at the end of the review, with an emphasis on the translation to clinical practice. This comprehensive review serves as a valuable resource for researchers, clinicians, and scientists alike, providing insights into the current state and future directions of collagen-based micro/nanogel research and development.

Postoperative pain seriously affects the recovery process of patients, resulting in prolonged hospital stay and increased care costs. Appropriate application of patient-controlled analgesia devices can effectively relieve perioperative acute pain. In 1994 patient-controlled analgesia began to be used in Peking Union Medical College Hospital, and the Acute Pain Service Working Group was established in 2004. With the cooperation of anesthesiologists and specialist nurses, the group jointly has implemented the whole process and standardized management based on patient-controlled analgesia, and constantly improved and innovated working methods, laying a solid foundation for the development of postoperative pain management. This paper systematically reviews and summarizes the work from the aspects of clinical focus, nursing management experience, promotion and dissemination of pain treatment concepts, and development of acute pain service model under the new situation, with the hope of providing valuable reference for comprehensively strengthening pain management in the process of diagnosis and treatment, and enhancing patients' satisfaction with perioperative analgesia services.

To establish a simple,convenient,sensitive,and specific method for rapid detection of Zi-ka virus(ZIKV),the whole genome sequences of ZIKV isolated from different times and regions were analyzed.The specific primers and probes were designed based on the screened target se-quences located in the conserved region of the ZIKV NS5 gene.By combining RT-LAMP isother-mal amplification technology and immunochromatography technology,a reverse transcription loop mediated isothermal amplification nucleic acid and flow visualization strip(RT-LAMP-VF)detec-tion method for ZIKV was established.The results showed that the method had good specificity and sensitivity.When the ratio of inner,outer,and ring primers(FIP∶LF∶F3)was 4∶2∶1,the detection method can specifically detect 102 copies/pL RNA transcripts or 2.15 pfu ZIKV at 61 ℃for 45 minutes,with no cross reaction with other flaviviruses such as Japanese encephalitis virus and classical swine fever virus.Other RNAs in blood tissue samples did not affect the sensitivity and specificity of RT-LAMP-VF,indicating that the method can be applied to clinical practice.The ZIKV RT-LAMP-VF detection method established in this study is easy to perform and does not require special instruments and equipment.It is particularly suitable for the rapid detection of ZIKV in grassroots units,providing technical support and material support for the establishment of on-site rapid detection and early warning and prediction systems for ZIKV disease.

Objective To explore the effect and mechanism of microRNA (miR)-17-5p on the invasion and metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells. Methods Expression of miR-17-5p in the normal human L-02 hepatocyte and QGY-7703 HCC cells was detected by RT-PCR. QGY-7703 HCC cells were transfected by miR-17-5p mimic and mimic control respectively. Influence of miR-17-5p on the invasion and metastasis ability of HCC cells was detected using Transwell assay and scratch test. Target gene of miR-17-5p was confirmed by bioinformatic analysis, and its expression in HCC cells was detected by Western blot. After siRNA silenced by target gene, the invasion and metastasis ability of HCC cells were observed. Comparison of microRNA in the two kinds of cells was conducted by t test. Results Expression level of miR-17-5p in HCC cells was 0.16±0.04, significantly lower than 1.01±0.19 in normal L-02 hepatocytes (t=-9.67, P<0.05). Number of trans-membrane cells and metastasis rate of HCC cells transfected by miR-17-5p mimic were respectively 36±4 and (5.37±0.15) mm/d, significantly lower than 62±7 and (7.50±0.01) mm/d of control group (t=-15.40, -32.00; P<0.05). Bioinformatic analysis showed that AKT3 was the key target gene of miR-17-5p, and the expression of AKT3 in HCC cells was obviously higher than that of normal hepatocyte. Number of trans-membrane cells and metastasis rate of HCC cells transfected by siRNA-AKT3 were respectively 13±3 and (4.13±0.15) mm/d, significantly lower than 58±3 and (7.23±0.25) mm/d of control group (t=-17.88, -53.69; P<0.05). Conclusion miR-17-5p inhibits the invasion and metastasis ability of HCC cells through targeting effect on AKT3.
