In order to achieve the quality homogenization of medical services among regions,Chi-na actively explores and promotes the construction of regional national medical centers.This paper illustrates the substantive cooperation during the integration period of the establishment of the re-gional center between output hospital(Sun Yat-Sen University Cancer Center)and the input hospi-tal(Gansu Cancer Hospital).During the integration period a collaborative management model with vertical and horizontal linkages was formed,and the cross-regional long-distance cooperation bar-riers were effectively overcome.Based on the patients-oriented medical service,the two hospitals have achieved remarkable results in the construction and development of clinical service,teach-ing,research and management of Gansu Hospital,which would provide a practical reference for the construction and management of regional national medical center.

AIM:To investigate the effect of intrinsic specific transforming growth factor-β(TGF-β)signaling on regeneration and repair of myofibers in acute skeletal myositismice model induced by cardiotoxin(CTX).METHODS:One hundred and eighty-six wild C57BL/6 mice and one hundred and thirty-eight mice with conditional knockout of TGF-β receptor 2(TGF-βr2)in myofibers(SM TGF-βr2-/-mice)were selected.CTX injection to anterior tibial muscle(TA)in-duced acute myoinjury in mice.Some SM TGF-βr2-/-mice were given Smad signaling agonist SRI-011381(SRI)intramus-cular injection.All mice were mainly divided into the following groups:control group,SM TGF-βr2-/-group and SM TGF-βr2-/-+SRI group.Twenty-four mice were selected in each group.RT-qPCR and immunofluorescence staining were used to detect the relative mRNA level,protein expression of inflammatory cytokines and low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1(LRP1),respectively,while the relative protein expression of myosin heavy chain 3(MHY3)and embryonic myosine heavy chain(eMHC)in damaged muscle was detected by Western blot and immunofluorescence staining.In vi-tro,after being extracted from neonatal mice,myogenic precursor cells(MPCs)were cultured in an pro-inflammatory mi-lieu and treated with SRI,recombinant mouse extracellular matrix protein 1(rmECM1)alone or in combination.Hereby,they were divided into the following seven groups:control-MPCs group,control-MPCs+LPS group,TGF-βr2-/--MPCs group,TGF-βr2-/--MPCs+LPS group,TGF-βr2-/--MPCs+LPS+SRI group,TGF-βr2-/--MPCs+LPS+rmECM1 group,and TGF-βr2-/--MPCs+LPS+SRI+rmECM1 group.Six mice were selected in each group.RT-qPCR and Western blot were used to detect the relative mRNA level,protein expression of major histocompatibility complex class I molecules(MHC-I/H-2Kb),major histocompatibility complex class II molecules(MHC-II/H2-Eα),Toll-like receptor 3(TLR3),and LRP1.And the relative protein expression of MoyD and myogenin in myotubes was detected by immunofluorescence staining.RE-SULTS:In vivo,compared with control group,SM TGF-βr2-/-group showed the significant upregulation of pro-inflamma-tory cytokines(P<0.05),and the opposite trend of anti-inflammatory cytokines,LRP1,MHY3,eMHC in the injured muscle(P<0.05),with delayed regeneration and repair of myofibers.In vitro,compared with control-MPCs+LPS group,LRP1,MoyD and myogenin significantly downregulated in TGF-βr2-/--MPCs+LPS group,but the downregulation trend was corrected after giving SRI treatment(P<0.05).In addition,compared with the TGF-βr2-/--MPCs+LPS group,the combi-nation of rmECM1 and SRI significantly upregulated the protein expression of MyoD and myogenin(P<0.05).CONCLU-SION:In a mouse model of acute skeletal myositis,intrinsic TGF-β signaling specifically in myofibers regulates local im-mune behavior.It promotes the expression of LRP1 in damaged muscle via Smad2/3 signaling,and LRP1 can then fully bind to ECM1,thereby facilitating muscle regeneration and repair,and improving the prognosis of acute skeletal myositis.

Autoimmune hepatitis （AIH） is an autoimmune disease characterized by liver parenchymal destruction and chronic fibrosis， and it is often mediated by T cells. The pathogenesis of AIH involves multiple factors， including sex， region， environmental factors， and genetic susceptibility. A notable predisposition is observed in female individuals， and the incidence rate of AIH in female individuals is significantly higher than that in male individuals. This sex difference is associated with various factors， and sex hormones may be an important cause of the female predominance of AIH， although the specific mechanisms remain unclear. An in-depth understanding of the mechanism of action of sex hormones in the pathogenesis of AIH will help to better understand the pathogenesis of the disease and may provide important clues for developing future treatment methods and prevention strategies. This article reviews the mechanism of action of estrogen and androgen in regulating the pathogenesis of AIH by regulating T cells， in order to provide new ideas and directions for further exploring the potential role of sex hormones in the etiology of autoimmune diseases.

Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 （TREM2） is expressed in resident non-parenchymal cells （NPCs） and is involved in various pathological processes including liver inflammation and immunoregulation. In recent years， TREM2 has attracted attention in the field of acute and chronic liver diseases， and more and more studies have shown that TREM2 is a potential target for the treatment of acute and chronic liver diseases； however， there is a lack of systematic summary for the mechanism of action of TREM2 in acute and chronic liver diseases. Therefore， this article reviews the latest research advances in the regulatory role of TREM2 in acute and chronic liver diseases， in order to provide new ideas for the clinical prevention and treatment of acute and chronic liver diseases.

Helicobacter pylori (Hp) is classified as a group Ⅰ carcinogen and serves as a major pathogenic factor in the development of gastric cancer. Studies have confirmed that eradicating Hp can reduce gastric cancer mortality. Although standard therapies combining proton pump inhibitors with antibiotics have shown some efficacy, increasing drug resistance and adverse effects have led to a continuous decline in the eradication rate of Hp. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop novel therapeutic strategies to improve the cure rate of Hp infection. This article focuses on the mechanisms by which Hp induces mitochondrial dysfunction, including mediating mitochondrial oxidative stress, alterations in mitochondrial dynamics, mitochondrial autophagy (mitophagy), and mtDNA damage. By delving into the pathogenesis of Hp-related diseases triggered by mitochondrial dysfunction, this review aims to provide a theoretical foundation for identifying new clinical targets for the prevention and treatment of Hp infection.

Currently,the global incidence rate of ulcerative colitis(UC)is increasing year by year.Conventional therapies cannot ef-fectively repair damaged tissue and reconstruct immune homeostasis,with a clinical remission rate of<50%,and most of the patients are facing problems such as drug resistance,irreversible damage to the mucosal barrier,and fibrosis,which require novel therapeutic methods.Recent studies have shown that bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells(BMSCs),with the help of their characteristics of multi-potential differentiation and inflammatory chemotaxis,can precisely modulate the microenvironment by secreting anti-inflammatory mediators and immunomodulatory proteins and significantly promote the regeneration and functional recovery of colonic mucosa.Based on these findings,BMSCs have become an important research direction in the field of UC treatment.Therefore,this article integrates ex-isting therapeutic systems and systematically analyzes the therapeutic mechanism of BMSCs,in order to provide a new theoretical basis and clinical guidance for the treatment of UC.

Inflammatory bowel disease(IBD)is a chronic nonspecific inflammatory disease of the intestines,mainly including Crohn's disease(CD)and ulcerative colitis(UC).More than 20％of IBD patients progress to colitis-associated colorectal cancer(CAC)through the inflammation-cancer sequence within 30 years of disease onset.Nuclear transcription factor E2-related factor 2(Nrf2)is a transcription factor closely related to IBD and CAC,which not only affects inflammation but also plays a significant role in regulating the"Inflammation-cancer transformation".In this paper,we review the studies on the mechanism of Nrf2 in the"Inflammation-cancer transformation",focusing on the mechanism and dual roles of Nrf2 in oxidative stress,inflammatory factors,immune response,metabolic reprogramming and gene expression,with an aim of providing a reference for further understanding the potential value of its intervention in the human tumor process.
