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.

Objective To investigate the prognostic differences among pure urothelial carcinoma,squamous-differentiated urothelial carcinoma,and pure squamous cell carcinoma,so as to provide reference for postoperative risk stratification.Methods The clinical data of bladder cancer patients who visited the Department of Urology,Peking University First Hospital and underwent radical cystectomy during Jan.2005 and Jun.2024 were retrospectively analyzed.Patients were categorized into the pure urothelial carcinoma group(n=725),squamous-differentiated urothelial carcinoma group(n=189),and pure squamous cell carcinoma group(n=36).General characteristics,surgical approaches,pathological staging,muscle invasion status,and lymph node positivity were compared among the three groups.Kaplan-Meier survival curves were plotted,and prognostic differences among the groups were compared after 1∶1 propensity score matching between each pair.Independent risk factors of prognosis were identified with Cox multivariable regression.Results The pure squamous cell carcinoma group had a higher proportion of female patients(50.00％vs.25.24％vs.22.75％,P=0.002 4).Compared with the pure urothelial carcinoma group,the other two groups demonstrated higher proportions of stage Ⅲ+Ⅳ,higher rates of muscle invasion,and higher lymph node positivity,with the pure squamous cell carcinoma group showing the highest overall staging(69.45％vs.58.20％vs.29.38％,P＜0.000 1).Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that squamous-differentiated urothelial carcinoma group and pure squamous cell carcinoma group had significantly worse survival than the pure urothelial carcinoma group(P＜0.05),while the former two groups exhibited similar outcomes(P=0.85).After propensity score matching,postoperative survival curves among the three groups were not significantly different(all P＞0.05).In multivariable Cox proportional hazards models adjusting for confounders,prognosis was primarily associated with age,muscle invasion,and lymph-node positivity(P＜0.05);pathological subtype was not an independent predictor of postoperative survival.Conclusion In a cohort of non-metastatic patients undergoing radical cystectomy,pure squamous cell carcinoma and squamous-differentiated urothelial carcinoma presented with higher clinical and pathological staging and poorer unadjusted prognosis compared with pure urothelial carcinoma.However,postoperative survival did not differ significantly among the three groups in the same clinicopathological conditions.

Aim To investigate the effect of Zhenwu decoction on inflammation,oxidative stress and apopto-sis of human glomerular epithelial cells(HGEC)in-duced by lipopolysaccharide(LPS)based on Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway,and to explore the underlying mechanism.Methods HGEC were treated with LPS(1.0 mg·L-1)for 24 h to construct an oxidative damage model.On this basis,2.5％,5％and 10％Zhenwu decoction-containing serum were added to the low,medium and high dose groups of Zhenwu decoc-tion,and a normal group was set up.The changes of cell activity were assessed by MTT method and LDH method.The contents of TNF-α,IL-6,IL-10,SOD,CAT,GSH-Px,ROS and MDA in each group were de-tected by ELISA.The apoptosis of each group was de-tected by flow cytometry.The mRNA and protein ex-pressions of Bax,Bcl-2,caspase-3,caspase-9 and Nrf2/HO-1 pathway were detected by RT-qPCR and Western blot,respectively.Results Compared to the normal group,the model group of HGEC exhibited increased levels of inflammatory cytokines,enhanced oxidative stress response and aggravated apoptosis;after inter-vention with various doses of Zhenwu decoction,the in-flammatory levels in HGEC were reduced,oxidative damage and apoptosis were effectively ameliorated,and the mRNA and protein expression levels of the Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway were upregulated.Conclu-sions Zhenwu decoction can protect HGEC from LPS-induced inflammation and oxidative damage and im-prove apoptosis.The mechanism may be related to the activation of Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway.

Recent studies have shown that the physiological homeostasis of oral mucosal cells is regulated by the circadian clock.Dis-ruption or dysfunction of the circadian clock is closely associated with the development of oral squamous cell carcinoma(OSCC).Research based on the circadian clock offers a novel perspective on the pathogenesis and therapeutic strategies for OSCC.However,there is current-ly limited research on this topic,and people generally have insufficient understanding and recognition of the circadian clock.Given the complexity and challenges of circadian clock which is the fourth dimension of medical research,we organize relevant experts based on summarizing the current research results of circadian clock in the pathogenesis and precision diagnosis and treatment of OSCC,combining the scientific principles of the circadian clock's role and their long-term research experience,then summarizes and recommends the con-sensus opinions for the research of circadian clock in the pathogenesis mechanism and precision diagnosis and treatment of human OSCC,with the hope of providing guidance for the basic research and clinical application of circadian clock or circadian rhythm in the pathogene-sis mechanism and precision diagnosis and treatment of oral and maxillofacial squamous cell carcinoma.

AIM:To analyze the expression of se-creted phosphoprotein 1(SPP1)and programmed cell death-ligand 1(PD-L1)in SMARCA4-deficient non-small cell lung cancer,and to provide a scientif-ic basis for the study of the follow-up treatment of this rare pathological type of lung cancer.METH-ODS:The clinical and pathological characteristics of 12 patients with this disease were analyzed retro-spectively,and the patients were divided into two groups of adenocarcinomas and poorly differentiat-ed carcinomas according to their morphological characteristics,and the relationship between the expression of SPP1 and PD-L1 was analyzed in the two groups.RESULTS:SPP1 expression was detect-ed in all patients and Its expression level was signif-icantly higher in the poorly differentiated carcino-ma group compared with the adenocarcinoma group(P=0.015);PD-L1 expression was found in 6/7 patients(5 cases were not measured),compared with the adenocarcinoma group,PD-L1 was also highly expressed in the poorly differentiated carci-noma group(P=0.048)and the PD-L1 difference be-tween the two groups suggested that the results were similar to those of SPP1.CONCLUSION:SMARCA4-deficient non-small cell lung cancer has high positive expression of SPP1 and PD-L1.It was more pronounced in patients with poorly differenti-ated carcinoma.There may be a positive correla-tion between SPP1 and PD-L1 expression in SMAR-CA4-deficient non-small cell lung cancer and the mechanism of the correlation needs to be further verified in subsequent studies.

In recent decades,the incidence of human papillomavirus(HPV)-associated oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma(OPSCC)has shown a marked increase.Significant changes have also occurred in the OPSCC diagnosis and treatment paradigm.Deter-mining HPV status prior to treatment is now essential,and radiotherapy/chemotherapy,immunotherapy,and minimally invasive surgical techniques have progressively emerged as key modalities for managing OPSCC.However,alongside these paradigm shifts,a comprehen-sive technical consensus guiding the entire diagnostic and therapeutic process for OPSCC patients is currently lacking.Given China's large population base and the rising incidence of OPSCC,an expert panel convened to develop a clinical technical consensus on OPSCC diagno-sis and management tailored to China's specific context.This consensus aims to further enhance and standardize understanding of OPSCC management techniques among relevant healthcare professionals.

Aim To investigate the pharmacological mechanism of Ebselenin(Ebselen,EbSe)in the treat-ment of Escherichia coli(E.coli)infection,which had no significant inhibitory effect on Gram-negative bacte-ria,based on previous studies.Methods After EbSe intervention in E.coli infected Raw264.7 cells,the via-bility of Raw264.7 cells was determined by CCK-8 method,the morphology and structure of Raw264.7 cells were observed by electron microscope,and the in-tracellular bacterial load of Raw264.7 cells was calcu-lated by coated plate method.Polarization status of peritoneal macrophages,Raw264.7 intracellular NO and ROS content and intracellular HO-1 expression in Raw264.7 and E.coli acutely infected mice after E.co-li infection by flow cytometry.qPCR was used to detect the expression of related mRNAs in Raw264.7 cells.qPCR was used to detect the intracellular GSH content in Raw264.7 cells by spectrophotometric assay,and the state of cytoskeletal proteins was observed by immuno-fluorescence.Western blot assay was performed to de-tect the intracellular Txnrd1 expression level.Results Microtiter method,CCK-8,and electron microscopy observations showed that EbSe had no effect on the growth of E.coli and Raw264.7 cells in vitro.The re-sults of smear plate counting showed that EbSe reduced the intracellular bacterial load of Raw264.7 in the in-fected group.Flow cytometry results showed that EbSe upregulated the number of M2-type macrophages.The EbSe-treated infected group had reduced intracellular NO and ROS levels and increased GSH levels.The qPCR results showed that the expression of IL-6,IL-1β,and iNOS was decreased,and the expression of HO-1,Txnrd1,and Glut1 was increased in DHB4-in-fected Raw264.7 cells after EbSe treatment.Cytoskel-etal staining showed that the morphology of the EbSe-treated infected cells was similar to that of oxPAPC-in-duced cells.Western blot results showed the expres-sion of Txnrd1 protein in EbSe-treated infected cells in-creased.Conclusion EbSe exerts anti-E.coli acute infection effect by regulating macrophage polarization and inhibiting macrophage excessive inflammatory state.

Oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma(OPSCC)is a malignant tumor originating from the squamous epithelium of the oro-pharyngeal mucosa,accounting for more than 90％of oropharyngeal malignancies.In recent years,human papillomavirus(HPV)infec-tion has become one of the primary etiological factors of oropharyngeal squamous carcinoma.The incidence of HPV-associated oropharyn-geal squamous carcinoma has been rising annually,with a noticeable trend toward younger populations,posing a significant threat to hu-man health.Due to the distinct biological behavior and clinical characteristics of HPV-associated oropharyngeal squamous carcinoma com-pared to its non-HPV-related counterpart,the diagnostic and treatment strategies for oropharyngeal squamous carcinoma have undergone substantial changes.Prevention and screening for oropharyngeal squamous carcinoma are of critical importance.The diagnostic and treat-ment process involves multi-disciplinary collaboration,including oral and maxillofacial surgery,otolaryngology,head and neck surgery,oncology,radiology and pathology.Based on evidence from clinical practice,a comprehensive,integrated diagnostic and therapeutic ap-proach has been established,centered around the concept of"prevention,screening,diagnosis,treatment,and rehabilitation",covering the entire patient lifecycle and providing a valuable reference for clinical practice.

Objective To analyze the changes in serum immunoglobulin E(IgE),interleukin-6(IL-6),high-mobility group protein B1(HMGB1),β2-microglobulin(β2-M),and T lymphocyte subsets in patients with secretory otitis media(SOM)and to evaluate their clinical significance.Methods A total of 185 patients with SOM admitted to Wuhan First Hospital between March 2023 and March 2025 were enrolled as the patient group,and 185 healthy individuals who underwent routine physical examinations at our hospital during the same period served as the control group.Serum levels of IgE,IL-6,HMGB1,and β2-microglobulin(β2-M),as well as peripheral blood T lymphocyte subsets,were compared between the two groups.Based on disease duration,the patients were further classified into acute(n=43),subacute(n=61),and chronic(n=81)subgroups.Levels of the serum markers and T lymphocyte subsets were compared across these three subgroups.The diagnostic value of the serum markers for SOM was evaluated,and their correlations with peripheral blood T lymphocyte subsets were analyzed.Results he levels of serum IgE,IL-6,HMGB1,β2-M,and peripheral blood CD8+were significantly higher in the disease group than in the control group,whereas the levels of peripheral blood CD4+and CD4+/CD8+were significantly lower(P<0.05).Across the acute,subacute,and chronic subgroups,the levels of serum IgE,IL-6,HMGB1,β2-M,and CD8+exhibited a progressive increasing trend,while CD4+and CD4+/CD8+levels showed a corresponding decreasing trend(P<0.05).The combined measurement of serum IgE,IL-6,HMGB1,and β2-M yielded a higher area under the curve(AUC)for diagnosing SOM compared to each marker alone(P<0.05),with a sensitivity of 88.65%and specificity of 76.76%.Furthermore,serum levels of IgE,IL-6,HMGB1,and β2-M were positively correlated with peripheral blood CD8+levels(r=0.618,0.578,0.622,0.549;P<0.05),and negatively correlated with CD4+and CD4+/CD8+ratios(r=-0.539,-0.573,-0.519,-0.559 for CD4+;r=-0.604,-0.618,-0.559,-0.649 for CD4+/CD8+;P<0.05).Conclusion The progression of SOM is associated with alterations in serum markers and peripheral blood T lymphocyte subsets.Furthermore,the combination of serum IgE,IL-6,HMGB1,and β2-MG demonstrates enhanced diagnostic value in patients with SOM,and a significant correlation exists between these four markers and the levels of peripheral blood T lymphocyte subsets.
