Objective To explore the method for establishing a pig left lung orthotopic transplantation model. Methods A total of 4 male Yorkshire pigs weighing (40.0±2.5) kg underwent surgical procedures, including anesthesia, tracheal intubation, donor lung procurement, and recipient lung transplantation. Histological morphology and blood gas analysis of the transplanted lungs were assessed 2 hours after reperfusion to evaluate the histological changes and function of the transplanted lungs. Results The pigs underwent left lung in situ transplantation, effectively simulating conditions relevant to human lung transplantation. Two hours after the transplantation, arterial blood gas analysis showed that arterial partial pressure of oxygen was 155.4-178.6 mm Hg, arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide was 53.1-62.4 mm Hg, and the oxygenation index was 310.8-357.2 mm Hg. Hematoxylin and eosin staining indicated a low degree of pulmonary edema and minimal cellular infiltration. Conclusion The pig left lung orthotopic transplantation model possesses strong operability and stability. Researchers can replicate this model according to the described methods and further conduct basic research and explore clinical translational applications.

Supercooling preservation technology, as a groundbreaking innovation in the field of organ preservation, significantly reduces the metabolic rate of cells and inhibits ice crystal formation by placing organs in a low-temperature environment near or below the freezing point. This technology extends the preservation time of organs and maintains their biological activity. Compared with the traditional low-temperature preservation at 4 °C, supercooling preservation effectively avoids cell damage and the accumulation of metabolic products, demonstrating significant advantages in the preservation of cells, tissues and organs. In recent years, important progress has been made in the optimization of cryoprotectants, the application of antifreeze proteins, the improvement of vitrification technology, and the development of nanotechnology-based rewarming techniques. These advancements provide new pathways to address the challenges of toxicity, ice crystal formation and uneven rewarming rates during supercooling preservation. This review summarizes the basic principles of supercooling preservation, the application of key technologies, and their practical effects in organ transplantation. It also analyzes the challenges of toxicity and rewarming efficiency, aiming to provide theoretical support and research directions for the future optimization of organ low-temperature preservation technology and its clinical application.

ObjectiveTo explore the protective effect of polysaccharide from Inonotus obliquus （IOP） on lipopolysaccharide （LPS）-induced acute lung injury （ALI） in mice. MethodA total of 40 male C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into normal group， model group， dexamethasone group， and high-dose and low-dose IOP groups， with eight mice in each group. The high-dose and low-dose IOP groups were administered intragastrically with IOP at 20 and 10 mg·kg^-1， respectively. The normal group and the model group were intragastrically administered with normal saline in equal volumes， and the dexamethasone group was intraperitoneally injected with dexamethasone phosphate injection of 30 mg·kg^-1 for 21 days. An ALI mouse model induced by LPS was constructed， and hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining， immunofluorescence staining， and blood routine were used to detect pathological damage of lung tissue and blood cell content. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） and Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） were used to detect the expression levels of various inflammatory factors. Changes in gut microbiota and plasma differential metabolites in mice were detected using 16S rRNA sequencing and ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-time of flight tandem mass spectrometry （UPLC-Q-TOF-MS）. ResultCompared with the model group， the lung tissue lesions of ALI mice were significantly improved after IOP administration， and the spleen and thymus index were dramatically increased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The ratio of wet-to-dry weight of lung tissue was sensibly decreased （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and the number of lymphocytes was substantially increased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The number of neutrophils was markedly decreased （P<0.01）. The expression level of interleukin-6 （IL-6）， interleukin-8 （IL-8）， interleukin-1β （IL-1β）， nuclear factor-κB（NF-κB）， and nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor 3 （NLRP3） decreased prominently （P<0.05， P<0.01） and the expression level of interleukin-10 （IL-10） increased memorably （P<0.01）. The 16S rRNA sequencing results show that IOP can regulate and improve intestinal microbial disorders. The UPLC-Q-TOF-MS results indicate that the treatment of ALI mice with IOP may involve pathways related to mitochondrial， sugar， and amino acid metabolism， such as nucleotide sugar metabolism， histidine metabolism， ubiquinone， and other terpenoid compound-quinone biosynthesis， as well as starch and sucrose metabolism. ConclusionThe improvement of lung tissue lesions and inflammatory response by IOP in ALI mice may be related to maintaining intestinal microbiota balance， regulating mitochondrial electron oxidation respiratory chain， as well as sugar and amino acid metabolism pathways， and affecting the production of related microbial metabolites and tricarboxylic acid cycle metabolites.

Background: Tigecycline, eravacycline, and omadacycline are recently developed tetracyclines. Susceptibility of microbes to these tetracyclines and their molecular mechanisms have not been well elucidated. We investigated the susceptibility of Moraxella catarrhalis to tigecycline, eravacycline, and omadacycline and its resistance mechanisms against these tetracyclines. Methods: A total of 207 non-duplicate M. catarrhalis isolates were collected from different inpatients. The minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of the tetracyclines were determined by broth microdilution. Tigecycline-, eravacycline-, or omadacycline-resistant isolates were induced under In Vitro pressure. The tet genes and mutations in the 16S rRNA was detected by PCR and sequencing. Results: Eravacycline had a lower MIC50 (0.06 mg/L) than tigecycline (0.125 mg/L) or omadacycline (0.125 mg/L) against M. catarrhalis isolates. We found that 136 isolates (65.7%) had the tetB gene, and 15 (7.2%) isolates were positive for tetL; however, their presence was not correlated with high tigecycline, eravacycline, or omadacycline ( ≥ 1 mg/L) MICs.Compared with the initial MIC after 160 days of induction, the MICs of tigecycline or eravacycline against three M. catarrhalis isolates increased ≥ eight-fold, while those of omadacycline against two M. catarrhalis isolates increased 64-fold. Mutations in the 16S rRNA genes (C1036T and/or G460A) were observed in omadacycline-induced resistant isolates, and increased RR (the genes encoding 16SrRNA (four copies, RR1-RR4) copy number of 16S rRNA genes with mutations was associated with increased resistance to omadacycline. Conclusions Tigecycline, eravacycline, and omadacycline exhibited robust antimicrobial effects against M. catarrhalis. Mutations in the 16S rRNA genes contributed to omadacycline resistance in M. catarrhalis.

Osteosarcoma is a clinically common primary malignant bone tumor.Its treatment is still not ideal because of the high de-gree of malignancy and early metastasis.Understanding the molecular mechanism and the biological characteristics of malignant os-teosarcoma,and exploring the effective treatment have become the focus of osteosarcoma research at home and abroad.A long non-coding RNA,lncRNA,is involved in the regulation of a variety of cellular functions and plays an important role in the development of osteosarcoma.Recently,lncRNA has been increasingly reported in osteosarcoma research.It has been found to affect the proliferation, invasion,and migration of osteosarcoma cells by interacting with proteins,mRNAs,and miRNAs.This article reviews the research on ln-cRNA based on recent reports regarding its role in the molecular mechanism of osteosarcoma.

Xuanwei district in Yunnan Province of China has pretty high incidence of lung cancer in China, even a- round the world. Studies have shown that there exists a close relationship between lung cancer and local indoor air pollution caused by Bituminous coal. Considering that the indoor air pollution in Xuanwei District is caused by "open fireplace", an indoor air pollution simulation system was designed, and an F344 rats lung damage model was estab- lished for this indoor air pollution fireplace. The model is based on indoor air pollution simulation system with signal multiplexer control and multi-channel acquisition, and mining PID algorithm was used for polynomial fitting to each test point, and a relatively constant PM2. 5 air pollution status was simulated. The results showed that the system could simulate a variety of states of air pollution, provide a new test method for evaluation of human injury caused by indoor air pollution and a new idea for the study of the incidence of lung cancer in Xuanwei district and other places.

Objective To research the expression of mitofusin-2 (mfn2) and tumor metastasis suppressor genes (nm23)in bladder cancer cells and its correlation with clinical pathological feature. Methods Immunohistochemistry was used to measure the expression of mfn2 and nm23.Sixty-five cases of bladder cancer were sampled,which include fif-ty cases of male and fifteen cases of female. TNM stage:Forty-seven cases were in stage I;Ten cases were in stage II; Five cases were in stageⅢ; Three cases were in stageⅣ. Other fifteen cases were sampled from normal bladder or benign tumor of bladder as control . All cases were collected from department of pathology,affiliated Hospital of hebei union university. Results The positive expression rate of mfn2 in bladder cancer tissues was significantly higher than those in normal blad-der tissues and benign tumor of bladder(χ2=32.528,P<0.05);The positive expression rate of nm23 in bladder cancer tis-sues was significantly lower than those in normal bladder tissues and benign tumor of bladder (χ2=19.719,P<0.05);the high expression level of mfn2 in bladder cancer was associated with tumor differentiation and TNM stage(P<0.05),but not corre-lated with age,sex,lymph node metastasis and clinical grade. The low level of nm23 was associated with TNM stage,clinical grade and LN metastasis. Conclusion The positive expression rate of mfn2 was increased in bladder cancer. It indicated that there was a close relationship between mfn2 and the occurrence and development of bladder cancer;The expression rate of nm23 was decreased in bladder cancer,it may be a predictor for metastasis and prognosis of bladder cancer.

Objective To investigate the possible role of plasma leptin and total cholesterol in the pathophysiology of attempted suicide in depressive episode patients. Methods The subjects were 25 depressive episode patients who had recently attempted suicide and 30 depressive episode patients without suicide attempt. The Hamilton Depression Rating Scale-24 items ( HAMD24 ), Beck Helpless Rating Scale (BHS) and Self-rating Idea of Suicide Scale (SIOSS) were used to evaluate the severity of symptoms. In addition, 32 individuals who took part in health examination were selected as health control group. Body height and weight were measured to get body mass index (BMI) of all objects, and plasma leptin and total cholesterol were measured by venous blood before taking pill. Results (1)HAMD score , BHS score and SIOSS score in patients with attempted suicide were higher than patients without suicide (P ＜ 0.01 ). (2) The total cholesterol and plasma leptin in patients with attempted suicide ( (3.3 ±0.9)mmol/L, (6.1 ±3.7)μg/L)were lower than that in patients without suicide( (3.6± 1.2)mmol/L, (9.4 ± 4.4)μg/L; P ＜ 0.05 ～ 0. 0l ), while total cholesterol and leptin in patients without suicide attempt ( (3.6 ± 1.2 ) mmol/L, ( 9.4 ± 4.4 ) μg/L) were lower than that in normal controls ( ( 4.8 ± 0.9 )mmol/L, ( 13.4 ± 6.7 ) μg/L; P ＜ 0.05 ～ 0.01 ). (3) Plasma leptin and total cholesterol of all patients were positively correlated with BMI(P＜0.01 ). Moreover, plasma leptin and total cholesterol in patients with attempted suicide and patients without attempted suicide were inversely positively correlated with HAMD score , BHS score and SIOSS score. Plasma leptin was significantly positively correlated with total cholesterol in patients with attempted suicide and patients without suicide, but there was no significant difference in normal controls(P＞ 0. 05). Conclusion The results suggest that decreased plasma leptin is related to the pathophysiology of attempted suicide in depressive episode patients.
