Background: Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge, commonly known as “Danshen” in China due to the distinctive red color of its roots, is one of the most widely used traditional Chinese medicines. It is cultivated in various regions across China, and environmental differences among these regions can affect the secondary metabolites of plants, thereby influencing the quality of S. miltiorrhiza. In recent years, increasing demand for S. miltiorrhiza has exacerbated the problem of origin fraud. Therefore, ensuring the authenticity of its geographical origin is crucial for the sustainable development of the industry. Objective: The red coloration of S. miltiorrhiza is closely associated with the content of its primary active compounds, particularly tanshinones. Therefore, both its internal chemical composition and external color characteristics serve as key indicators for quality assessment. This study utilized hyperspectral imaging technology to evaluate its potential in classifying the geographical origin of S. miltiorrhiza. Methods: Spectral data reflecting the internal chemical properties of S. miltiorrhiza were integrated with color information representing its external features through 3 levels of data fusion. These fused datasets were then combined with deep learning algorithms to achieve accurate origin classification. Results: The results demonstrated that the Transformer model combined with soft-voting decision-level fusion achieved the highest classification accuracy of 98.72% by integrating image color and short-wave infrared spectral data. Conclusion: This study demonstrates that integrating hyperspectral imaging spectral data with color information provides a reliable and innovative approach for verifying the authenticity and traceability of S. miltiorrhiza.

Objective To explore the value of MRI subtraction technique(ST)for evaluating the efficacy of systemic therapy for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)and predicting prognosis after combining with surgery.Methods Totally 35 patients with 39 HCC lesions who received systemic therapy+radical resection were retrospectively collected.Based on preoperative MRI,tumor activity ratio(recorded as tumor activityST)was obtained with ST,while tumor activity value(recorded as tumor activitypathology)was obtained through postoperative pathology,and their correlation was analyzed.The patients were regularly followed up after surgery,and the survival data were recorded.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was drawn to evaluate the efficacy of tumor activityST for predicting patients'survival status.Then the patients were divided into survival benefit group and no survival benefit group according to the cut-off value,and survival analysis was conducted.Results Tumor activityST was positively correlated with tumor activitypathology(r=0.900,P＜0.001).The median follow-up time was 32.93 months,during which 8 patients died,and the median survival time was 29.9 months.The area under the curve(AUC)of tumor activityST for predicting patients'survival status was 0.67,and the cut-off value was 0.36.Thirty patients with tumor activityST＜0.36 were enrolled in survival benefit group,while 5 patients≥0.36 were collected in no survival benefit group.The overall survival in survival benefit group was longer than that in no survival benefit group(P＜0.001).Conclusion MRI ST could be used to non-invasively evaluate the efficacy of systemic therapy for advanced HCC and predict prognosis after combining with surgery.

This paper summarizes the progress of theoretical research and practice of One Health in China,and discusses the paradigm of One Health governance to improve the prevention and control of infectious diseases in China and the world,and provide an example for the improvement of the public health system.In particular,China has long history to apply the concept of One Health in the national schistosomiasis control programmes and patriotic health campaigns,which were not only focusing on human health,but also emphasizing the sustainable development of animal health and ecological environment.At the same time,the application of tools such as system dynamics model,eDNA technology,One Health economic assessment and global One Health index(GOHI)in the field of disease control and environmental health provides technical support for the concept of One Health.Despite the challenges of practical application of these tools,the One Health concept will play a greater role in providing sustainable solutions for human-animal-environmental health by strengthening interdisciplinary collaboration,improving standardization protocols and promoting inter-national cooperation.

Aim To infer novel therapeutic and phar-macological targets related to lung cancer treatment through multiomics approaches,so as to provide new directions for developing more personalized and effec-tive treatment strategies.Methods Genome-wide as-sociation study(GWAS)data analysis,pan-cancer,single-cell,transcriptomics,and protein-protein interac-tion analysis were employed in this study.Results We analyzed biomarkers and therapeutic targets associ-ated with lung cancer.The study identified key bio-markers closely related to lung cancer progression and explored the interrelationships between these biomark-ers and viral infections.According to KEGG pathway annotation,the number of genes related to metabolic processes increased significantly.In particular,metab-olites such as alanine and isoleucine emerged as pivotal factors in therapeutic interventions.The IgD+CD24+and IgD+CD24-B cell subsets were identified as cen-tral elements in immune evasion and treatment re-sponse.Concurrently,the Lachnospiraceae and Prevo-tella were shown to modulate host immune responses and the tumor microenvironment by regulating short-chain fatty acid levels,thereby opening novel avenues for cancer research.Conclusions Through mul-tiomics analysis combined with transcriptomics and pro-teomics analysis,we identify several potential therapeu-tic targets for lung cancer,providing key insights for developing novel treatment strategies.

Aim To investigate the therapeutic effect of newly formulated Tadalafil tablets on liver fibrosis in mice induced by carbon tetrachloride(CCl4)and its impact on the activation of hepatic stellate cells(HSCs).Methods Liver fibrosis model was estab-lished by intraperitoneally injecting 20％CCl4 corn oil solution twice a week for eight weeks.After four weeks of modeling,the treatment group was administered ei-ther the newly formulated Tadalafil tablets(1.0 mg·kg-1)or the Cialis(2.5 mg·kg-1)via gavage for the remaining four weeks.We assessed the effects of Tadalafil on collagen deposition,tissue structural dam-age,and HSCs activation markers in the fibrotic liver of mice using serum biochemical analysis,histopathologi-cal staining,and Western blotting following the treat-ment period.LX-2 cells were cultured and treated with tadalafil after TGF β1 stimulation,and the effects of tadalafil on LX-2 cell activation were assessed via Western blot.Results Compared to the normal mice,the model group mice exhibited a significantly higher liver-specific index,increased liver function indicators,and notable hepatocyte necrosis.Additionally,liver lobules were damaged,accompanied by severe infiltra-tion of inflammatory cells.Both smooth muscle actin(α-SMA)and fibronectin(Fn)were elevated,serving as markers of HSCs activation.As a result of treatment with the newly formulated Tadalafil tablets,liver tissue damage was significantly reduced,transaminase levels decreased,necrosis and inflammatory cell infiltration were reduced,and collagen fiber deposition was allevia-ted,and α-SMA and Fn expression was reduced.It was worth noting that low-dose newly formulated Tadalafil tablets were found to be as effective as high-dose Cia-lis.In a cellular model,Tadalafil significantly inhibited the activation of LX-2 cells and reduced the expression of proteins related to cell activation.Conclusions The newly formulated Tadalafil tablets can significantly inhibit HSCs activation,reduce extracellular matrix(ECM)deposition,improve liver fibrosis and liver function damage caused by CCl4.This new formulation offers a significant advantage over Cialis in terms of ef-fectiveness,with a lower effective dose.

Coronavirus,a major pathogen infecting humans,mammals,and birds,causes primarily respiratory diseases af-ter infecting humans.Seven coronaviruses have been found to infect humans and subsequently cause varying degrees of respira-tory symptoms.From 2019 to 2023,millions of people died from severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infections,and the virus continues to mutate.Therefore,drug screening research must urgently be expanded to develop more effective,broad-spectrum anti-coronavirus drugs.In-depth research has indicated that the coronavirus 3C-like protease and RNA polymer-ase are necessary for viral reproduction and are highly conserved among strains,and consequently are anti-virus targets of great interest.This article summarizes the enzymes encoded by coronaviruses and drug screening methods,to provide a reference for coronavirus prevention and control.

Objective To explore the predictive value of fat attenuation index(FAI)and fibrous plaque index(FPI)for the prognosis of patients with acute coronary syndrome(ACS).Methods A retrospective cohort study was conducted on 334 ACS patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)in the First Affiliated Hospital of Army Military Medical University and Yongchuan Hospital of Chongqing Medical University from March 2021 to July 2023.All patients received coronary computed tomography angiography(CCTA)to measure FAI and FPI.According to the occurrence of major adverse cardiovascular events(MACE)with 1 year of follow-up,they were divided into MACE group(n=108)and non-MACE group(n=226).The baseline data,CCTA data and results of laboratory tests were collected and compared between the 2 groups.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the relationship of FAI and FPI with the prognosis of ACS patients,and ROC curve was drawn to evaluate its predictive efficiency.Results Among the 334 ACS patients,108(32.34%)experienced MACE.When compared with the non-MACE group,the MACE group exhibited significantly larger proportions of diabetes(72.22%vs 31.86%)and left main coronary artery disease(18.52%vs 7.08%),but lower success rate of operation(79.63%vs 93.81%,P<0.05).Radiologic results showed that the proportion of severe stenosis(20.37%vs 10.62%),FAI(-80.12±6.41 HU vs-72.34±7.09 HU)and FPI(0.58±0.41 vs 0.26±0.12)were obviously increased in the MACE group than the non-MACE group(P<0.05).Laboratory tests indicated that there were statistical differences between the 2 groups in high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol(HDL-C,1.20±0.15 vs 1.09±0.16 mmol/L),miR-126(0.91±0.12 vs 0.96±0.15)and SST2(38.45±5.67 vs 34.30±4.89 ng/mL,P<0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis revealed that FAI(OR=1.200,95%CI:1.136～1.268),FPI(OR=63.157,95%CI:14.126～282.374),moderate stenosis(OR=1.332,95%CI:1.024～1.859),severe stenosis(OR=1.480,95%CI:1.074～2.039),miR-126(OR=0.007,95%CI:0.001～0.077),and sST2(OR=1.192,95%CI:1.113～1.277)were independent predictors of MACE(P<0.05).ROC curve analysis displayed that stenosis degree(AUC=0.622,95%CI:0.561～0.683,P=0.001),FAI(AUC=0.790,95%CI:0.741～0.839,P=0.001)and FPI(AUC=0.700,95%CI:0.638～0.761,P=0.001),miR-126(AUC=0.646,95%CI:0.584～0.707,P=0.001),sST2(AUC=0.700,95%CI:0.638～0.761,P=0.001)had certain predictive values for ACS prognosis.Conclusion Coronary FAI and FPI can be used as independent prognostic indicators of ACS patients,and their numerical changes are closely related to plaque stability and inflammatory state.

Nitrofurazone(NFZ)is an antibiotic that is used as a veterinary drug in aquaculture.NFZ abuse can lead to a series of environmental and health issues,making it crucial to establish a rapid and highly sensitive method for NFZ detection.In this study,platinum nanoparticle(PtNPs)-loaded zeolitic imidazolate framework(ZIF-8)was used as a precursor,and PtNPs functionalized nitrogen doped porous carbon(NC)was obtained through pyrolysis.Pt@NC was combined with multi-walled carbon nanotubes(MWCNTs)and cast onto a glassy carbon electrode(GCE)surface to construct an electroch-emical sensor.Electrochemical tests revealed that Pt@NC/WCNT/GCE exhibited an electrochemical active area of 0.066 cm2 and a heterogeneous electron transfer rate constant(k0)of 2.03×10-3 cm/s,which were higher than other materials.Compared with the electrodes modified by other materials,the NFZ generated the highest peak current of irreversible reduction peak on the Pt@NC/WCNT/GCE electrode.In comparison with Pt@ZIF-8/WCNT/GCE,after pyrolysis and carbonization treatment,the reduction current of NFZ increased by 2.19 times,and the reduction peak potential shifted positively by 19 mV simultaneously.When compared with NC/WCNT/GCE,the PtNPs in the composite material enhanced the NFZ current by 4.25 times.Additionally,the experimental conditions for detecting NFZ using the sensor were optimized,including the carbonization temperature of Pt@ZIF-8,ratio of Pt@NC to CNT,loading amount of the modified material,and electrolyte pH.Under the optimized conditions,the sensor demonstrated a linear detection range for NFZ of 0.20-240 μmol/L,a sensitivity of 9.995 μA/((μmol/L)?cm2)and a limit of detection(LOD)of 0.06 μmol/L.The sensor exhibited excellent anti-interference capability,good reproducibility,and stability,with spiked recoveries for NFZ in water samples ranging from 94.6%to 105.6%.This study provided a novel electrochemical sensing approach for NFZ detection.

Objective To explore the effect of enhancer of Zeste homolog 2(EZH2)on hepatocellular car-cinoma HepG2 cell proliferation by inhibiting Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.Methods The expression lev-els of mRNA and protein of EZH2 in hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2,SMMC-7721,BEL-7402 cells and nor-mal hepatocytes were detected by real time fluorescence quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction and Western blot.Transfected siRNA EZH2 and siRNA control in hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cells.siRNA EZH2 in HepG2 cells and siRNA control were transfected,MTT was used to measure the HepG2 cells' ability to proliferate.Western blot technique was used to identify the expression levels of proteins.By transfecting siRNA EZH2 in HepG2 cells and administering an activator of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling path-way,MTT assay was used to determine the proliferation ability of cells.Results The EZH2 mRNA and EZH2 protein levels in hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2,SMMC-7721 and BEL-7402 cells were higher than those in normal hepatocytes(P＜0.05),and the mRNA and protein levels of EZH2 in HepG2 cells were high-er than those in SMMC-7721 and BEL-7402 cells(P＜0.05).siRNA EZH2 could significantly inhibit the mR-NA and protein levels of EZH2 in hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cells.After EZH2 expression inhibition,the cell viability of HepG2 cells was lower at 24,48,72 h(P＜0.05),Wnt 1 and β-catenin protein levels were lower(P＜0.05).Conclusion EZH2 is overexpressed in hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cells,and knock-down of EZH2 significantly inhibits the proliferative ability of HepG2 cells and decreases the levels of proteins related to the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.
