Tumor ribonucleic acid(RNA)vaccines,which are emerging as promising cancer immunotherapies,have achieved significant technological breakthroughs during the COVID-19 pandemic.These vaccines activate immune responses through precise antigen expression.However,they face challenges such as suboptimal delivery efficiency and insufficient immunogenicity.Current studies focus on three design strategies:conventional messengerribonucleic acid(mRNA),self-amplifying mRNA,and circular RNA(circRNA)vaccines coupled with lipid nanoparticles(LNP)and polyethylene glycol(PEG)optimization for enhanced delivery.Clinical trials have demonstrated the synergistic effic-acy of RNA vaccines in combination with immune checkpoint inhibitors,chemotherapy,or oncolytic viruses.However,clinical translation is hindered by the complexity of antigen selection and storage stability limitations.In this review,we systematically summarize the recent clin-ical advancements in tumor RNA vaccines,analyze their technical challenges,and propose innovative strategies to address the current thera-peutic bottlenecks to guide future research and clinical applications.

ObjectiveTo explore whether fluoroethylnormemantine (FENM), an NMDA receptor antagonist, could improve compulsive-like behaviors and to investigate its underlying mechanisms in the RU24969-induced obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) mouse model. MethodsThirty-two mice were randomly assigned to four groups: Saline (n=8), RU24969 (n=8), RU+FENM (n=8), and FENM (n=8). Mice received FENM or an equivalent volume of saline for pre-treatment, followed by RU24969 or saline for model induction 30 minutes later. Behavioral tests were performed 1 hour after modeling, and serum samples were collected to measure the level of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). Evans Blue dye was intravenously injected to assess dye content in brain tissue, thereby evaluating potential blood-brain barrier damage. ResultsFENM treatment significantly improved repetitive stereotyped circling behavior (F=39.850, P<0.001) and alleviated persistent motor activity (F=50.200, P<0.001) in RU24969 model mice. Additionally, FENM treatment significantly increased serum BDNF level in RU24969-induced OCD mice (F=18.930, P<0.001). ConclusionsFENM , an NMDA receptor antagonist, may alleviate compulsive behaviors in OCD mice by modulating BDNF levels , thereby exerting anti-compulsive effects. Neither the RU24969 model nor FENM treatment significantly affectes blood-brain barrier integrity.

The clinical application of binocular endoscope relies primarily on the visual system of physicians to create a three-dimensional effect, but it cannot provide accurate depth information. The utilization of 3D reconstruction technology in binocular endoscopy can facilitate the recovery of image depth information, and the application of deep learning-based 3D reconstruction technology can significantly improve the accuracy and real-time performance of reconstruction results, making it widely applicable in the realm of minimally invasive surgery. This paper aims to explore the key technologies and implementation methods of deep learning based 3D reconstruction for binocular endoscopic images, and seeks to outline strategies for enhancing the quality of 3D reconstruction in endoscopic images, providing guidance for sustainable development of binocular endoscopic image reconstruction technology in clinical settings. This will assist in the application of minimally invasive surgery and contribute to meeting the demands of precision medicine.

Objective To construct an evaluation index system for the capability of comprehensive control of mountain-type zoonotic visceral leishmaniasis based on the One Health concept, so as to provide insights into the control and elimination of mountain-type zoonotic visceral leishmaniasis using the One Health approach. Methods A preliminary evaluation index system was constructed based on literature review, panel discussions and field surveys. Thirty-three experts were selected from 7 provincial disease control and prevention centers in Beijing Municipality, Hebei Province, Shanxi Province, Henan Province, Sichuan Province, Shaanxi Province and Gansu Province where mountain-type zoonotic visceral leishmaniasis was endemic, and two rounds of expert consultations were conducted to screen the indicators. The positive coefficient, degree of concentration, degree of coordination, and authority of the experts were calculated, and the normalized weights of each index were calculated with the analytic hierarchy process. Results The response rates of questionnaires during two rounds of expert consultation were both 100.00% (33/33), and the authority coefficients of the experts were 0.86 and 0.88, respectively. The coefficients of coordination among experts on the rationality, importance, and operability of the indicators were 0.392, 0.437, 0.258, and 0.364, 0.335, 0.263, respectively (all P values < 0.05). Following screening, the final evaluation index system included 3 primary indicators, 17 secondary indicators, and 50 tertiary indicators. The normalized weights of primary indicators “external environment”, “internal support” and “comprehensive control” were 16.98%, 38.73% and 44.29%, respectively. Among the secondary indicators of the primary indicator “external environment”, the highest weight was seen for natural environment (66.67%), and among the secondary indicators of the primary indicator “internal support”, the lowest weight was seen for the scientific research for visceral leishmaniasis control (8.26%), while other indicators had weights of 12.42% to 13.38%. Among the secondary indicators of the primary indicator “comprehensive control”, the weight was 16.67% for each indicator. Conclusions An evaluation index system has been constructed for the capability of comprehensive control of mountain-type zoonotic visceral leishmaniasis based on the One Health concept. In addition to assessment of the effect of conventional mountain-type zoonotic visceral leishmaniasis control measures, this index system integrates the importance of top-level design, organizational management, and implementation of control measures, and includes indicators related to multi-sectoral cooperation.
