Ferroptosis, a programmed cell death modality discovered and defined in the last decade, is primarily induced by iron-dependent lipid peroxidation. At present, it has been found that ferroptosis is involved in various physiological functions such as immune regulation, growth and development, aging, and tumor suppression. Especially its role in tumor biology has attracted extensive attention and research. Breast cancer is one of the most common female tumors, characterized by high heterogeneity and complex genetic background. Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a special type of breast cancer, which lacks conventional breast cancer treatment targets and is prone to drug resistance to existing chemotherapy drugs and has a low cure rate after progression and metastasis. There is an urgent need to find new targets or develop new drugs. With the increase of studies on promoting ferroptosis in breast cancer, it has gradually attracted attention as a treatment strategy for breast cancer. Some studies have found that certain compounds and natural products can act on TNBC, promote their ferroptosis, inhibit cancer cells proliferation, enhance sensitivity to radiotherapy, and improve resistance to chemotherapy drugs. To promote the study of ferroptosis in TNBC, this article summarized and reviewed the compounds and natural products that induce ferroptosis in TNBC and their mechanisms of action. We started with the exploration of the pathways of ferroptosis, with particular attention to the System X_c^--cystine-GPX4 pathway and iron metabolism. Then, a series of compounds, including sulfasalazine (SAS), metformin, and statins, were described in terms of how they interact with cells to deplete glutathione (GSH), thereby inhibiting the activity of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) and preventing the production of lipid peroxidases. The disruption of the cellular defense against oxidative stress ultimately results in the death of TNBC cells. We have also our focus to the realm of natural products, exploring the therapeutic potential of traditional Chinese medicine extracts for TNBC. These herbal extracts exhibit multi-target effects and good safety, and have shown promising capabilities in inducing ferroptosis in TNBC cells. We believe that further exploration and characterization of these natural compounds could lead to the development of a new generation of cancer therapeutics. In addition to traditional chemotherapy, we discussed the role of drug delivery systems in enhancing the efficacy and reducing the toxicity of ferroptosis inducers. Nanoparticles such as exosomes and metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) can improve the solubility and bioavailability of these compounds, thereby expanding their therapeutic potential while minimizing systemic side effects. Although preclinical data on ferroptosis inducers are relatively robust, their translation into clinical practice remains in its early stages. We also emphasize the urgent need for more in-depth and comprehensive research to understand the complex mechanisms of ferroptosis in TNBC. This is crucial for the rational design and development of clinical trials, as well as for leveraging ferroptosis to improve patient outcomes. Hoping the above summarize and review could provide references for the research and development of lead compounds for the treatment for TNBC.

Acute burns and chronic wounds frequently fail to heal owing to various reasons. Most drugs currently used for wound therapy in clinical practice have notable drawbacks, making their application a substantial concern. For instance, anti-inflammatory drugs can exert multisystem toxicity, and cellular therapies are costly and difficult to retain. In recent years, natural functional proteins derived from animals and plants have gained increasing attention owing to their unique biological activities, low cost, and broad application prospects in wound therapy. Herein, we isolated a new protein (JH015Y) from amphibians and demonstrated its excellent wound repair and regeneration properties compared with those of epidermal growth factor, both in vitro and in vivo. JH015 protein increased the proliferative ability of human keratinocytes and skin fibroblasts by 47.73 and 41.40%, respectively. In vivo, the medium-dose (0.5 mg/dose) groups of JH015Y protein demonstrated accelerated wound healing from day 4, with wound healing rates 1.26, 1.27, and 1.14 times that of the blank group in acute wounds, burn wounds, and diabetic ulcer, respectively. Histological analysis of Masson-stained sections indicated that the JH015Y protein contributed to collagen deposition on the wound surface, markedly reduced inflammatory cell infiltration, and exhibited low biological toxicity. Accordingly, the JH015Y protein is a promising biotherapeutic agent for accelerated wound repair and regeneration.

Objective To study the effect of intervertebral grafting area on the effect of single segment lumbar posterior de-compression and intervertebral bone grafting fusion.Methods The clinical data of 52 patients who underwent single-segment lumbar posterior decompression pedicle internal fixation and bone grafting fusion from January 2020 to December 2022 were retrospective reviewed.The area of the intervertebral bone graft was measured one week postoperatively using Computed To-mography(CT),and based on the ratio of the bone graft area to the average area of the endplates,the patients were divided into three groups:17 cases in group A(the intervertebral bone graft area did not exceed the area of one pedicle)included 9 males and 8 females with an average age of(56.0±1 1.5)years old;15 cases in group B(the intervertebral bone graft area exceeded one pedicle but did not reach the opposite pedicle)included 10 males and 5 females with an average of(52.0±14.0)years old;20 cases in group C(the intervertebral bone graft area exceeded the opposite pedicle)included 12 males and 8 females with an average of(49.5±12.8)years old.X-rays and CT scans were performed at 3,6,12 months,and the final follow-up postopera-tively,the interbody fusion Brantigan scores,pain visual analogue scale(VAS),and Oswestry Disability Index(ODI)at each follow-up were recorded.Results The gender,age,and surgical segments showed no significant differences among three groups(P＞0.05).There was also no significant difference in the preoperative VAS and ODI among three groups(P＞0.05).All patients of three groups were followed up from 12 to 36 months.Compared with preoperative,VAS and ODI scores of three groups showed significant improvement at 1 week postoperatively and the final follow-up(P＜0.05).Compared with preoperative mea-surements,the height of the intervertebral space was restored at 1 week postoperatively in three groups;at the final follow-up,the loss of height in the intervertebral space was less in groups B and C,and the height of the intervertebral space in group B and C was significantly higher than in group A(P＜0.05).The modified Brantigan scores at 3 and 6 months postoperatively were significantly higher in group C than in groups A and B(P＜0.05);at 12 months postoperatively,the scores in groups B and C were significantly higher than in group A(P＜0.05);however,at the final follow-up,there was no significant difference in the modified Brantigan scores among three groups(P＞0.05).The bone graft fusion rate in group C was significantly higher than in groups A and B at 3 months postoperatively(P＜0.05);at 6 and 12 months postoperatively,the fusion rates in groups B and C were significantly higher than in group A(P＜0.05);at the final follow-up,the fusion rate in group A was still lower than in groups B and C,but the difference among three groups was not significant(P＞0.05).Conclusion Single segment posterior lum-bar decompression and interbody fusion surgery can significantly improve the clinical symptoms of patients with lumbar degen-erative related diseases.However,as the proportion of bone grafting area increases,the early bone grafting fusion rate and fu-sion score of patients are significantly improved.

Objective We aimed to compare the efficacy and prognosis of percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)in complex and high-risk patients with coronary heart disease(CHD)treated with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation(ECMO)combined with intra-aortic balloon pump(IABP)assistance,and explore the application value of combined use of mechanical circulatory support(MCS)devices in complex PCI.Methods A total of patients who met the inclusion criteria and underwent selective PCI supported by MCS at the Department of Cardiology,the First Affiliated Hospital of the Air Force Medical University from January 2018 to December 2022 were continuously enrolled.According to the mechanical circulatory support method,the patients were divided into ECMO+IABP group and IABP group.Clinical characteristics,angiographic features,in-hospital outcomes,and complications were collected.The intra-hospital outcomes and major adverse cardiovascular events(MACE)at one month and one year after the procedure were observed.The differences and independent risk factors between the two groups in the above indicators were analyzed.Results A total of 218 patients undergoing elective PCI were included,of which 66 patients were in the ECMO+IABP group and 152 patients were in the IABP group.The baseline characteristics of the two groups of patients were generally comparable,but the ECMO+IABP group had more complex lesion characteristics.The proportion of patients with atrial fibrillation(6.1％vs.0.7％,P=0.030),left main disease(43.9％vs.27.0％,P=0.018),triple vessel disease(90.9％vs.75.5％,P=0.009),and RCA chronic total occlusion disease(60.6％vs.35.5％,P＜0.001)was higher in the ECMO+IABP group compared to the IABP group.The proportion of patients with previous PCI history was higher in the IABP group(32.9％vs.16.7％,P=0.014).There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of in-hospital complications between the two groups(P=0.176),but the incidence of hypotension after PCI was higher in the ECMO+IABP group(19.7％vs.9.2％,P=0.031).The rates of 1-month MACE(4.5％vs.2.6％,P=0.435)and 1-year MACE(7.6％vs.7.9％,P=0.936)were comparable between the two groups.Multivariate analysis showed that in-hospital cardiac arrest(OR 7.17,95％CI 1.27-40.38,P=0.025)and after procedure hypotension(OR 3.60,95％CI 1.10-11.83,P=0.035)were independent risk factors for the occurrence of 1-year MACE.Conclusions Combination use of ECMO+IABP support can provide complex and high-risk coronary heart disease patients with an opportunity to achieve coronary artery revascularization through PCI,and achieve satisfactory long-term prognosis.

Objective To explore the clinical effect of hip arthroscopy in the treatment of borderline developmental dysplasia of the hip(BDDH)with acetabular labrum injury.Methods A total of 32 BDDH patients with acetabular labrum injury and undergoing hip arthroscopy between December 2019 and December 2021 were analyzed retrospectively.There were 8 males and 24 females,aged 39.41±16.27 years(18～59 years)and their mean lateral acetabular central-edge angle(LCEA)was 21.25±2.96°(18°～25°).Another 32 patients with acetabular femur impingement(FAI)matching in age and undergoing hip arthroscopy during the same period were selected into the control group,which includ-ed 15 males and 17 females,aged 42.78±12.18 years(24～70 years),with their average LCEA of 32.97°±4.96°(26°～42°).Both groups received the arthroscopic glenolabial repair,head and neck ar-ea plasty and joint capsule suture.Three,six and twenty-four hours after the surgery,both groups were evaluated the clinical effect using the modified Harris hip score(mHHS),hip outcome score sports specific subscale(HOS-SSS),hip outcome score-activities of daily living(HOS-ADL)and visual analogue scale(VAS).Results The BDDH and FAI groups were followed up for(27.6±5.4)and(28.3±6.5)months,respectively.There was no significant difference in all measurements between the two groups before the operation(P>0.05).However,3,12 and 24 months after surgery,the aver-age mHHS,HOS-SSS and HOS-ADL scores of both groups increased significantly,while the average VAS scores decreased significantly(P<0.001).Moreover,the average mHHS scores of BDDH group were significantly lower than FAI group 3,12 and 24 months after surgery(P<0.05).However,3 months after surgery,the average HOS-SSS and HOS-ADL scores in BDDH group were significantly lower than FAI group(P<0.05).None of the patients underwent re-surgery due to recurrence of symp-toms during the follow-up period.Conclusion Hip arthroscopy can achieve satisfying short-term out-comes in treating BDDH.

Objective:To evaluate the safety and efficiency of robotic visualization system(RVS)-assisted microsurgical re-construction of the reproductive tract in male rats and the satisfaction of the surgeons.Methods:We randomly divided 8 adult male SD rats into an experimental and a control group,the former treated by RVS-assisted microsurgical vasoepididymostomy(VE)or vaso-vasostomy(VV),and the latter by VE or VV under the standard operating microscope(SOM).We compared the operation time,me-chanical patency and anastomosis leakage immediately after surgery,and the surgeons'satisfaction between the two groups.Results:No statistically significant difference was observed the operation time between the experimental and the control groups,and no anasto-mosis leakage occurred after VV in either group.The rate of mechanical patency immediately after surgery was 100％in both groups,and that of anastomosis leakage after VE was 16.7％in the experimental group and 14.3％in the control.Compared with the control group,the experimental group achieved dramatically higher scores on visual comfort(3.00±0.76 vs 4.00±0.53,P＜0.05),neck/back comfort(2.75±1.16 vs 4.38±1.06,P＜0.01)and man-machine interaction(3.88±1.55 va 4.88±0.35,P＜0.05).There were no statistically significant differences in the scores on image definition and operating room suitability between the two groups.Conclusion:RVS can be used in microsurgical reconstruction of the reproductive tract in male rats and,with its advantages over SOM in ergonomic design and image definition,has a potential application value in male reproductive system micosurgery.
