Digestive system tumors are the leading cause of cancer incidence and mortality globally, and their occurrence and development generally follow the key pathological process of inflammation-cancer transformation. Therefore, intervening in the precancerous lesion stage is an important strategy to block malignant transformation of the disease and reduce the incidence rate of tumors. Banxia Xiexin Tang-related prescriptions (including Banxia Xiexin Tang, Shengjiang Xiexin Tang, and Gancao Xiexin Tang) originated from the Shanghan Zabinglun They follow the principle of pungent dispersing and bitter descending, combination of cold and warm medicinals, and tonifying deficiency and purging excess, which aligns with the core pathogenesis of digestive system precancerous lesions characterized by cold-heat intermingling and disorder of ascending and descending. These prescriptions are widely used in the clinical treatment of various digestive system inflammatory disorders such as atrophic gastritis, ulcerative colitis, and reflux esophagitis. This review systematically summarizes the theoretical basis, clinical evidence, and therapeutic mechanisms of such prescriptions in preventing and treating the inflammation-cancer transformation process in the digestive system. Clinical studies have shown that whether used alone or in combination with modern therapies, Banxia Xiexin Tang can effectively alleviate symptoms, repair histopathological changes, and improve patients' quality of life. Basic research further reveals that their efficacy stems from multi-target systemic regulatory effects: ameliorating the chronic inflammatory microenvironment, antagonizing oxidative stress, reshaping the gut microbiota, restoring the immune balance, regulating cell proliferation and apoptosis, etc. On the basis of the convergence of traditional Chinese and Western medicine understanding of inflammation-cancer transformation, this article constructs a research framework centered on regulating the inflammatory microenvironment homeostasis to systematically elucidate the mechanism of treating different diseases with the same method (Banxia Xiexin Tang). In view of the limitations of current research in terms of evidence level, disease-syndrome combination models, and overall mechanism analysis of compound prescriptions, this article proposes future research directions of integrating high-quality clinical research, systems biology, and cutting-edge technologies, providing a new theoretical basis and translational ideas for the precise prevention and control of digestive system tumors with traditional Chinese medicine.

OBJECTIVE To establish the UPLC fingerprint and the method for multi-component content determination in Jingangteng capsules, and to evaluate its quality by combining chemical pattern recognition analysis. METHODS An UPLC method was established. Separation was performed on a Zorbax SB-C 18 Rapid Resolution HD column, with acetonitrile-0.1% formic acid as the mobile phase for gradient elution.Using the Similarity Evaluation System for Chromatographic Fingerprints of Traditional Chinese Medicines (2012 edition), UPLC fi ngerprints were established for 10 batches of Jingangteng capsules, and similarity was evaluated. SPSS 22.0 and SIMCA 14.1 software were used to perform hierarchial-cluster analysis and orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA), respectively. The same UPLC method was employed to determine the contents of chlorogenic acid, 3,5-dihydroxy-2-methylbenzoic acid-3- O -glucoside (M1), caffeic acid, astilbin, oxyresveratrol, quercitrin and resveratrol in the 10 batches of samples. RESULTS A total of 17 common peaks were identified in UPLC fingerprints of the 10 batches of samples, of which 7 were identified as chlorogenic acid, M1, caffeic acid, astilbin, oxyresveratrol, quercitrin, and resveratrol. The similarities of 10 batches of samples ranged from 0.820 to 0.985. The results of hierarchial-cluster analysis showed that 10 batches of samples were grouped into four categories: S1-S4 formed one group, S5 and S6 formed another, S7, S8 and S10 formed a third, and S9 formed a fourth, consistent with the OPLS-DA results; the variable importance projection values for peaks 7, 10, 2, 16 (resveratrol), 13 (oxyresveratrol), 11, 6 (caffeic acid), 5 (M1) and 15 (quercitrin) were >1. Quantitative analysis results showed that the contents of chlorogenic acid, M1, caffeic acid, astilbin, oxyresveratrol, quercitrin, and resveratrol were 1.650 8-4.213 7, 0.636 2-2.161 7, 0.031 0-0.086 5, 0.239 1-1.069 3, 0.211 9-1.104 0, 0.488 8-2.399 2, and 0.164 0-0.699 8 mg/g, respectively. CONCLUSIONS UPLC fingerprint and content determination methods established in this study are simple to operate, accurate, reliable and reproducible; when combined with chemical pattern recognition analysis, they can be used to evaluate the quality of Jingangteng capsules. Nine components, such as resveratrol, oxyresveratrol, caffeic acid, M1 and quercitrin, may serve as markers of quality variation.

As people’s attention to health continues to increase, the market demand for traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is growing steadily. The quality and safety of Chinese medicinal materials have attracted unprecedented social attention. In particular, the issue of exogenous harmful residue pollution in TCM has become a hot topic of concern for both regulatory authorities and society. The Chinese Pharmacopoeia 2025 Edition further refines the detection methods and limit standards for exogenous harmful residues in TCM. This not only reflects China’s high-level emphasis on the quality and safety of TCM but also demonstrates the continuous progress made by China in the field of TCM safety supervision. Basis on this study, by systematically reviewing the development history of the detection standards for exogenous harmful residues in TCM and analyzing the revisions and updates of these detection standards in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia 2025 Edition, deeply explores the key points of the changes in the monitoring standards for exogenous harmful residues in TCM in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia 2025 Edition. Moreover, it interprets the future development directions of the detection of exogenous residues in TCM, aiming to provide a reference for the formulation of TCM safety supervision policies.

Objective:To investigate the anti-leukemic effects and resistance mechanisms of venetoclax in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Genomic, transcriptomic, and clinical data from AML patients who underwent venetoclax drug sensitivity testing were downloaded from the Beat AML database. Correlation analysis was performed between these data and venetoclax sensitivity outcomes. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) associated with venetoclax sensitivity were identified from transcriptomic data and subsequently validated using GEO database transcriptomic results and in vitro experiments (including Western blot). Functional enrichment analyses (KEGG and GSEA), transcription factor enrichment analysis (KnockTF), and data from public databases were employed to further investigate key genes and pathways influencing drug sensitivity.Results:After filtering the Beat AML cohort, data from 52 patient samples with available in vitro venetoclax sensitivity results were included for analysis. Patients with FLT3 mutations exhibited greater sensitivity to venetoclax compared to those with FLT3 wild-type. Correlation analysis between clinical information and drug sensitivity data indicated that higher peripheral blood tumor burden was associated with increased sensitivity to venetoclax. Transcriptomic analysis and in vitro experiments confirmed that venetoclax inhibits the FLT3-related signaling pathway, including downregulation of FLT3 expression and reduced phosphorylation of its downstream targets AKT and STAT5. KEGG pathway and KnockTF transcription factor enrichment analyses indicated that venetoclax resistance was associated with increased transcriptional activity of FOXM1 and STAT3. Moreover, high expression of FOXM1 and STAT3 correlated with shorter overall survival in patients.Conclusion:Venetoclax can inhibit the activation of FLT3-related signaling pathways. The activation of STAT3 and FOXM1 transcription factors is a potential key mechanism contributing to venetoclax resistance in AML.

ObjectiveTo explore the effect of exercise on anxiety and depression in cancer patients during chemotherapy, as well as the optimal exercise dosage. MethodsA PICO framework was constructed, and randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on the effect of exercise on anxiety and depression in cancer patients during chemotherapy were retrieved from databases of PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, Embase, Medline, CNKI, VIP and Wanfang data, from the establishment to November, 2023. The quality of the literature was evaluated with Cochrane Risk of Bias Tool and Physiotherapy Evidence Database (PEDro) scale. Data were synthesized and analyzed using RevMan 5.3, and the risk of bias was evaluated using Stata 18.0. ResultsA total of 13 RCTs involving 1 340 subjects were included. The scores of PEDro scale were five to eight. Exercise interventions significantly improved anxiety (SMD = -0.70, 95%CI -1.18 to -0.22, P = 0.004) and depression (SMD = -0.89, 95%CI -1.43 to -0.34, P = 0.002) compared to the control group. Subgroup analyses showed that, the exercise effect on anxiety was less than 45 minutes a time (SMD = -0.26, 95%CI -0.46 to -0.05, P = 0.01), more than three times a week (SMD = -0.26, 95%CI -0.46 to -0.05, P = 0.01), and less than twelve weeks (SMD = -0.21, 95%CI -0.36 to -0.07, P = 0.005). For depression, it was less than 45 minutes a time (SMD = -0.69, 95%CI -1.29 to -0.08, P = 0.03), more than three times a week (SMD = -0.69, 95%CI -1.29 to -0.08, P = 0.03), and less than twelve weeks (SMD = -0.52, 95%CI -0.92 to -0.13, P = 0.01). Moderate to high-intensity exercise interventions significantly outperformed the control group in improving anxiety (SMD = -0.21, 95%CI -0.37 to -0.06, P = 0.007) and depression (SMD = -0.21, 95%CI -0.41 to -0.01, P = 0.04). ConclusionExercise interventions can effectively improve anxiety and depression in cancer patients during chemotherapy, and it suggests for high-intensity exercise, less than 45 minutes a time, more than three times a week, and less than twelve weeks.
