Objective To explore the feasibility and reference value of allogeneic lung transplantation and postoperative monitoring in miniature pigs for lung transplantation research. Methods Two miniature pigs (R1 and R2) underwent left lung allogeneic transplantation. Complement-dependent cytotoxicity tests and blood cross-matching were performed before surgery. The main operative times and partial pressure of arterial oxygen (PaO₂) after opening the pulmonary artery were recorded during surgery. Postoperatively, routine blood tests, biochemical blood indicators and inflammatory factors were detected, and pathological examinations of multiple organs were conducted. Results The complement-dependent cytotoxicity test showed that the survival rate of lymphocytes between donors and recipients was 42.5%-47.3%, and no agglutination reaction occurred in the cross-matching. The first warm ischemia times of D1 and D2 were 17 min and 10 min, respectively, and the cold ischemia times were 246 min and 216 min, respectively. Ultimately, R1 and R2 survived for 1.5 h and 104 h, respectively. Postoperatively, in R1, albumin (ALB) and globulin (GLB) decreased, and alanine aminotransferase increased; in R2, ALB, GLB and aspartate aminotransferase all increased. Urea nitrogen and serum creatinine increased in both recipients. Pathological results showed that in R1, the transplanted lung had partial consolidation with inflammatory cell infiltration, and multiple organs were congested and damaged. In R2, the transplanted lung had severe necrosis with fibrosis, and multiple organs had mild to moderate damage. The expression levels of interleukin-1β and interleukin-6 increased in the transplanted lungs. Conclusions The allogeneic lung transplantation model in miniature pigs may systematically evaluate immunological compatibility, intraoperative function and postoperative organ damage. The data obtained may provide technical references for subsequent lung transplantation research.

OBJECTIVE To systematically evaluate the influential factors for all-cause mortality in patients with carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacteria （CR-GNB） treated with polymyxin B. METHODS PubMed， Embase， the Cochrane Library， Web of Science， Wanfang Data， VIP， CBM and CNKI were searched to collect clinical studies on all-cause death within 30 days or 28 days after treatment with polymyxin B in patients with CR-GNB infection from database establishment to July 2025. After literature screening， data extraction and evaluation of literature quality， meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.4 software. RESULTS A total of 12 studies were included， involving 1 326 patients， among whom 529 patients died， with a mortality rate of 39.89%. Meta-analysis results showed that combined with cardiovascular disease [OR＝2.06， 95%CI （1.37， 3.09）， P ＝0.005 ] ， increased Sequential Organ Failure Assessment （SOFA） score [OR＝1.20， 95%CI （1.07， 1.35）， P ＝0.003 ] ， mechanical ventilation [OR＝2.35， 95%CI （1.65， 3.34）， P ＜0.001 ] ， continuous renal replacement therapy （CRRT） [OR＝2.58， 95%CI （1.67， 3.97）， P ＜0.001 ] ， bloodstream infection [OR＝3.24， 95%CI （2.19， 4.78）， P ＜0.001 ] ， multiple-site infection [OR＝1.51， 95%CI （1.03， 2.20）， P ＝0.03 ] ， septic shock [OR＝3.19， 95%CI （1.94， 5.24）， P ＜0.001 ] ， use of vasoactive drugs [OR＝2.90， 95%CI （1.97， 4.27）， P ＜0.001 ] ， and the occurrence of acute kidney injury （AKI） [OR＝2.17， 95%CI （1.41， 3.36）， P ＜0.001 ] were risk factors for all-cause mortality in patients with CR-GNB infection treated with polymyxin B. Conversely， an extended duration of polymy xin B treatment [OR＝0.92， 95%CI （0.86， 0.99）， P ＝0.03 ] and early administration after CR-GNB infection [OR＝0.47， 95%CI （0.25， 0.85）， P ＝0.01 ] were protective factors. CONCLUSIONS Patients with cardiovascular disease， receiving mechanical ventilation or CRRT， having bloodstream infection， multiple-site infection or septic shock， combining with vasoactive drugs， with AKI and increased SOFA scores have a higher risk of all-cause mortality. Conversely， extending the duration of polymyxin B treatment （beyond 7 days） and early administration within 48 hours after confirmed CR-GNB infection can significantly reduce the risk of all-cause mortality.

BACKGROUND:Parkinson's disease has the main pathological changes in the midbrain,especially in the dense substantia nigra,leading to impaired motor and non-motor function in patients.At present,research is limited by cellular heterogeneity,and its pathogenesis still needs to be further elucidated.In recent years,single-cell RNA sequencing(scRNA-seq)has gradually been applied in neurodegenerative diseases,which is of great significance for understanding intercellular heterogeneity,disease development mechanisms,and treatment strategies. OBJECTIVE:To review the research progress of scRNA-seq technology applied to Parkinson's disease in recent years,providing a theoretical basis for the application of scRNA-seq in the treatment and diagnosis of Parkinson's disease. METHODS:The first author used a computer system to search for relevant literature in the CNKI,WanFang,PubMed,and Web of Science databases,with the Chinese search terms"single-cell RNA sequencing,Parkinson's disease,cell heterogeneity,cell subtypes,dopaminergic neurons,glial cells"and English search terms"single-cell RNA seq,Parkinson disease,heterogenicity,subtypes,dopaminergic neurons,glial cells."71 articles were ultimately included for review and analysis. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)scRNA-seq is a high-throughput experimental technique that utilizes RNA sequencing at the single-cell level to quantify gene expression profiles in specific cell populations,revealing cellular mysteries at the molecular level.Compared with traditional sequencing techniques,scRNA-seq technology is used to reveal the diversity of cell types and changes in specific gene expression in complex tissues under various physiological and pathological conditions through automatic clustering analysis of cell transcriptome.(2)By using scRNA-seq,the development process of dopaminergic neurons and the unique functional characteristics of various cell subtypes are elucidated,in order to better understand potential therapeutic molecular targets.(3)The use of scRNA-seq analysis has improved our understanding of the response of Parkinson's disease glial cells,enabling us to comprehensively map and characterize different cell type populations,identify specific glial cell subpopulations related to neurodegeneration,and draw valuable single cell maps as reference data for future research.(4)The application of scRNA-seq to detect embryonic mice and stem cells will help improve the in vitro differentiation protocol and quality control of cell therapy,as well as evaluate the overall cell quality and developmental stage of dopaminergic neurons derived from stem cells.

Exosomes are small vesicles with a lipid bilayer membrane structure that have applied in precision medicine due to their non-invasive nature， high accessibility， and stability. Exosomes play a crucial role in processes such as tumor metastasis， invasion， and angiogenesis. Gynecological malignancies primarily include cervical cancer， ovarian cancer， and endometrial cancer， and their early diagnosis and treatment have long been a focus of research. As novel biological markers， exosomes exhibit high specificity and can effectively block the occurrence and progression of gynecological malignancies. This article explores the diagnostic and therapeutic applications of exosomes in cervical cancer， ovarian cancer， and endometrial cancer in detail. In cervical cancer， exosomes are involved in processes such as HPV infection， angiogenesis， and immune evasion， with specific miRNAs （such as miR-30d-5p and let-7d-3p） serving as diagnostic markers. Furthermore， exosomes can act as targeted drug delivery vehicles and vaccine development platforms. In ovarian cancer， the miRNAs carried by exosomes （such as miR-21 and the miR-200 family） have reference value for early diagnosis， and exosomes play an important role in chemotherapy resistance and tumor progression. For endometrial cancer， miRNAs in exosomes （such as miR-15a-5p and miR-106b-5p） can serve as biomarkers for early detection. Additionally， this article highlights the challenges faced by exosomes in clinical applications， such as the complexity of isolation and extraction and the identification of cell sources， and emphasizes the necessity for further basic research and clinical trials. This study provides new ideas and methods for the early diagnosis and precision treatment of gynecological malignancies， holding significant theoretical and clinical importance.

Objective To explore the construction of α-1,3-galactosyltransferase (GGTA1) gene-knockout (GTKO) Diannan miniature pigs and the kidney xenotransplantation from pigs to rhesus macaques, and to assess the effectiveness of GTKO pigs. Methods The GTKO Diannan miniature pigs were constructed using the CRISPR/Cas9 gene-editing system and somatic cell cloning technology. The phenotype of GTKO pigs was verified through polymerase chain reaction, Sanger sequencing and immunofluorescence staining. Flow cytometry was used to detect antigen-antibody (IgM) binding and complement-dependent cytotoxicity. Kidney xenotransplantation was performed from GTKO pigs to rhesus macaques. The humoral immunity, cellular immunity, coagulation and physiological indicators of the recipient monkeys were monitored. The function and pathological changes of the transplanted kidneys were analyzed using ultrasonography, hematoxylin-eosin staining, immunohistochemical staining and immunofluorescence staining. Results Single-guide RNA (sgRNA) targeting exon 4 of the GGTA1 gene in Diannan miniature pigs was designed. The pGL3-GGTA1-sgRNA1-GFP vector was transfected into fetal fibroblasts of Diannan miniature pigs. After puromycin selection, two cell clones, C59# and C89#, were identified as GGTA1 gene-knockout clones. These clones were expanded to form cell lines, which were used as donor cells for somatic cell nuclear transfer. The reconstructed embryos were transferred into the oviducts of trihybrid surrogate sows, resulting in 13 fetal pigs. Among them, fetuses F04 and F11 exhibited biallelic mutations in the GGTA1 gene, and F04 had a normal karyotype. Using this GTKO fetal pig for recloning and transferring the reconstructed embryos into the oviducts of trihybrid surrogate sows, seven surviving piglets were obtained, all of which did not express α-Gal epitope. The binding of IgM from the serum of rhesus monkey 20# to GTKO pig PBMC was reduced, and the survival rate of GTKO pig PBMC in the complement-dependent cytotoxicity assay was higher than that of wild-type pig. GTKO pig kidneys were harvested and perfused until completely white. After the left kidney of the recipient monkey was removed, the pig kidney was heterotopically transplanted. Following vascular anastomosis and blood flow restoration, the pig kidney rapidly turned pink without hyperacute rejection (HAR). Urine appeared in the ureter 6 minutes later, indicating successful kidney transplantation. The right kidney of the recipient was then removed. Seven days after transplantation, the transplanted kidney had good blood flow, the recipient monkey's serum creatinine level was stable, and serum potassium and cystatin C levels were effectively controlled, although they increased 10 days after transplantation. Seven days after transplantation, the levels of white blood cells, lymphocytes, monocytes and eosinophils in the recipient monkey increased, while platelet count and fibrinogen levels decreased. The activated partial thromboplastin time, thrombin time and prothrombin time remained relatively stable but later showed an upward trend. The recipient monkey survived for 10 days. At autopsy, the transplanted kidney was found to be congested, swollen and necrotic, with a small amount of IgG deposition in the renal tissue, and a large amount of IgM, complement C3c and C4d deposition, as well as CD68⁺ macrophage infiltration. Conclusions The kidneys of GTKO Diannan miniature pigs may maintain normal renal function for a certain period in rhesus macaques and effectively overcome HAR, confirming the effectiveness of GTKO pigs for xenotransplantation.

ObjectiveTo explore the effects of exosomal CXCL on the biological behavior of cervical cancer cells and its underlying mechanisms. MethodsChemokine CXCL was first screened through bioinformatics databases. The GEPIA database was analyze CXCL expression in cervical cancer tissues and adjacent normal cervical tissues. Western blot was performed to detect CXCL expression levels in cervical cancer cells （Caski） and normal cervical epithelial cells （H8）. The successful isolation of exosomes was confirmed by nanoparticle tracking analysis， transmission electron microscopy （TEM） and Western blot. ELISA was employed to detect the expression level of exosomes CXCL was determined by ELISA. After CXCL knockdown via siRNA transfection， cells were divided into three groups： blank control， negative control and experimental groups. Cell proliferation was evaluated using the CCK-8 assay， while cell migration and invasion were assessed by Transwell assays. ResultsExosomal CXCL expression was significantly upregulated in cervical cancer cells compared with normal cervical epithelial cells （P<0. 01）， and also markedly elevated in cervical cancer tissues compared with adjacent normal tissues. After low expression of CXCL knockdown significantly reduced CXCL expression in both cancer cells and their derived exosomes（P<0. 05）. Low expression markedly inhibited the proliferation， invasion and migration abilities ConclusionSilencing exosomal CXCL may inhibit the malignant biological behavior of cancer cells.

Objective To investigate the effects of high-altitude hypoxic environment on the pharmacokinetic characteristics and brain tissue distribution of phenytoin sodium in epileptic rats.Methods A total of 70 male SPF-grade Wistar rats aged 2 months and weighing(200±20)g were used in the study.An epilepsy model was induced in the rats using the lithium chloride-pilocarpine method.The successfully modeled rats were randomly assigned to a normoxic treatment group and a high-altitude hypoxic treatment group.Phenytoin sodium was administered via intragastric gavage at a dose of 50 mg/kg in both groups.Blood samples were collected from the orbital venous plexus before treatment and 0.5,1,2,3,4,6,8,10,and 24 h post treatment.The animals were euthanized after the final blood collection,and samples of the liver and the whole brain tissue were collected.In the brain tissue distribution experiment,brain tissue samples were collected at 0.5,1,2,and 4 h after drug administration.The concentration of phenytoin sodium in rat plasma and brain tissue was determined by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry(LC-MS/MS),and the pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated using WinNolin 8.1 software.The expression levels of CYP2C9 in liver tissue and those of P-gp in brain tissue of epileptic rats were determined by Western blot.Results Compared with those in the normoxia group,the peak concentration,peak time,and half-life of phenytoin sodium in the high-altitude hypoxia group were significantly decreased by 46.0%,42.3%,and 55.5%,respectively(all P<0.05);the clearance rate was significantly increased by 162.0%(P<0.05);and the area under the curve of plasma concentration-time curve was decreased by 45.6%(P<0.01).At 0.5,1,and 2 hours after administration,compared with that in the normoxia treatment group,the concentration of phenytoin sodium in the brain tissue of the high-altitude hypoxia treatment group was significantly decreased by 78.1%,63.5%,and 32.5%,respectively(all P<0.05).Western blot results showed that the expression levels of CYP2C9 in the liver tissue and P-gp in the brain tissue of rats in the high-altitude hypoxia group were approximately 1.78 and 1.65 times higher than those in the normoxia group,respectively(both P<0.05).Conclusion The hypoxic environment at high altitudes can promote the metabolism of phenytoin sodium,reduce its absorption efficiency,and change the characteristics its distribution in the brain,which may be related to the up-regulation of the expression of CYP2C9 in the liver and that of P-gp in the brain.

Objective To investigate the effects of physical activity and disease burden on self-ef-ficacy and quality of life in patients with inflammatory bowel disease(IBD).Methods A total of 312 IBD patients were selected by convenience sampling method.General information of patients was col-lected.Self-efficacy[Chronic Disease Management Self-Efficacy Scale(CDM-SES)],physical activi-ty[International Physical Activity Questionnaire-Short Form(IPAQ-SF)],disease burden[Inflamma-tory Bowel Diseases Disk(IBD-disk)Scale]and quality of life[Inflammatory Bowel Disease Ques-tionnaire(IBDQ)]were assessed in IBD patients.The chain-mediating effects of physical activity and disease burden on self-efficacy and quality of life in IBD patients were analyzed.Results There were statistically significant differences in self-efficacy of IBD patients with different ages,body mass index(BMI),places of residence,marital status,educational background and disease stages(P＜0.05);there were statistically significant differences in physical activity among IBD patients with different gen-der,age,place of residence,marital status,education background,disease stage and whether to use biological agents(P＜0.05);there were statistically significant differences in the disease burden of IBD patients with different BMI,place of residence,marital status,education background,payment method and disease stage(P＜0.05);there were statistically significant differences in the quality of life of IBD patients with different ages,places of residence,marital status,education levels,pay-ment methods,disease stages and whether to use biological agents(P＜0.05).The quality of life of IBD patients was positively correlated with self-efficacy and physical activity(r=0.605,0.482,P＜0.01),and negatively correlated with disease burden and disease stage(r=-0.550,-0.362,P＜0.01).Physical activity and disease burden partially mediated between self-efficacy and quality of life in IBD patients.Conclusion IBD patients exhibited moderate levels of self-effi-cacy,low levels of physical activity,and high disease burdens.Clinical healthcare professionals should actively take measures to improve patients'self-efficacy and physical activity levels to reduce disease burden.

ObjectiveTo explore the molecular mechanism of Qidi Tangshen prescription （QDTS） in regulating podocyte pyroptosis in diabetes nephropathy （DN）. MethodThrough in vivo experiment， db/db mice were divided into the model group， QDTS group （3.34 g·kg^-1）， valsartan capsule group （10.29 mg·kg^-1）， with db/m mice serving as the normal control. Each group consisted of 8 mice， and they underwent continuous intervention for 8 weeks. After the last administration， mice were euthanized， and kidney pathological changes were observed. Additionally， the expression levels of pyroptosis-related indicators， including NOD-like receptor protein 3 （NLRP3）， Gasdermin D protein （GSDMD）， and interleukin-1β （IL-1β） protein， were examined. Through in vitro experiment， mouse podocytes were divided into the normal glucose group （5.5 mmol·L^-1 glucose）， high glucose group （35 mmol·L^-1 glucose）， DMSO group （35 mmol·L^-1 glucose+200 mg·L^-1 DMSO）， and QDTS group （35 mmol·L^-1 glucose+200 mg·L^-1 QDTS freeze-dried powder）. After 48 hours of intervention， the expression levels of NLRP3， GSDMD， and IL-1β proteins were measured in podocytes. A drug-ingredient-target-disease interaction network for QDTS in the treatment of DN was constructed by network pharmacology methods. The key signaling pathways regulating podocyte pyroptosis were analyzed， and validation was conducted through in vivo and in vitro experiments. ResultCompared with normal group， glomerular hyperplasia and glomerular basement membrane thickening were observed in model group， and some segments were accompanied by obvious podocellular process fusion. The protein expressions of NLRP3， GSDMD and IL-1β in mouse kidney were increased， the protein expressions of mitogen-activated protein kinase 14 （MAPK14）， V-Rel reticuloendotheliosis virus oncogene homology A （RELA） and Caspase-8 in mouse kidney were increased （P<0.05）. Compared with model group， kidney pathological injury of mice in QDTS group was significantly reduced， and the expressions of NLRP3， GSDMD and IL-1β in kidney of mice in QDTS group and valsartan group were decreased （P<0.05）. The protein expressions of MAPK14， RELA and Caspase-8 in kidney of mice in QDTS group and valsartan group were decreased （P<0.05）. Network pharmacology results showed that there were 16 targets for QDTS to regulate DN cell pyrodeath， among which MAPK14， RELA and Caspase-8 were the key targets. Compared with normal glucose group， the protein expressions of NLRP3， GSDMD and IL-1β in high glucose group were increased （P<0.05）， and the protein expressions of MAPK14， RELA and Caspase-8 in mouse podocytes were increased （P<0.05）. Compared with high glucose group， the expressions of NLRP3， GSDMD and IL-1β in podocytes of mice in QDTS group were decreased （P<0.05）， and the expressions of MAPK14， RELA and Caspase-8 in podocytes of mice in QDTS group were decreased （P<0.05）. ConclusionQDTS reduces damage to DN podocytes， which is associated with its regulation of the MAPK14/RELA/Caspase-8 signaling pathway and inhibition of podocyte pyroptosis.

Objective To investigate the changes of OAT expression in bone cells in chronic renal failure(CRF)and involved mechanism,and to explore the effect of OAT expression on bone metabolism.Methods Ra-ndomly divide the rats into a control group(n=6)and a model group(n=6).The model group established a rat chronic renal failure model using"single nephrectomy+adenine gavage"method,and the red blood cell(RBC)and hemoglobin(HGB)of the rat body were measured using a blood routine analyzer;Measure indicators such as creatinine(Cr),urea nitrogen(BUN),uric acid(UA),blood calcium(Ca2+),and blood phosphorus(P3+)using a fully automated biochemical analyzer;Pathological examination of rat kidneys;X-ray examination of rat tibia;Immunohistochemical examination of bone tissue OAT1 level.Results The bone density of the model group rats is lower than that of the control group;The calcium and phosphorus metabolism of rats in the model group was in metabolic disorder,and the OAT1 value of bone tissue binding was much lower than that of the control group(P= 0.0018),which was statistically significant.(P=0.0018)Conclusion Chronic renal failure affected the binding ability of OAT1 in bone tissue,leading to the metabolic disorder for calcium absorption and phosphorus metabolism,thus aggravating renal osteodystrophy(P<0.05).
