[Objective] To study the molecular biological mechanism for a case of ABO blood group B subtype, and perform three-dimensional modeling of the mutant enzyme. [Methods] The ABO phenotype was identified by the tube method and microcolumn gel method; the ABO gene of the proband was detected by sequence-specific primer polymerase chain reaction (PCR-SSP), and the exon 6 and 7 of the ABO gene were sequenced and analyzed. Homologous modeling of Bw.03 glycosyltransferase (GT) was carried out by Modeller and analyzed by PyMOL2.5.0 software. [Results] The weakening B antigen was detected in the proband sample by forward typing, and anti-B antibody was detected by reverse typing. PCR-SSP detection showed B, O gene, and the sequencing results showed c.721 C>T mutation in exon 7 of the B gene, resulting in p. Arg 241 Trp. Compared with the wild type, the structure of Bw.03GT was partially changed, and the intermolecular force analysis showed that the original three hydrogen bonds at 241 position disappeared. [Conclusion] Blood group molecular biology examination is helpful for the accurate identification of ambiguous blood group. Homologous modeling more intuitively shows the key site for the weakening of Bw.03 GT activity. The intermolecular force analysis can explain the root cause of enzyme activity weakening.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the improvement effects and mechanism of Xiangsha yiwei tang on gastric mucosal injury in rats with chronic atrophic gastritis （CAG）. METHODS Rats were randomly assigned into normal control group， model group， Xiangsha yiwei tang low-， medium- and high-dose groups （6， 12， 18 g/kg， calculated by crude drug）， and high-dose group of Xiangsha yiwei tang+740 Y-P [Xiangsha yiwei tang 18 g/kg+transforming growth factor β1/phosphatidyl inositol 3 kinase/ protein kinase B（TGF-β1/PI3K/Akt） pathway activator group 740 Y-P 10 mg/kg]， with 18 rats in each group. Rats in each group were administered the corresponding drugs via oral gavage or injection， once daily， for 4 consecutive weeks. Gastric mucosal blood flow， the levels of serum gastrointestinal hormones [including motilin （MTL）， gastrin （GAS）， and pepsinogen （PP）]， as well as inflammatory cytokines [including tumor necrosis factor- α （TNF- α）， interleukin-1β （IL-1β）， IL-6] in rats were measured. Pathological damage to gastric mucosal tissue was observed in rats； the apoptotic rate of gastric mucosal cells was detected. The expressions of TGF-β1/PI3K/Akt signaling pathway-related proteins and apoptosis-related proteins [including B-cell lymphoma-2 （Bcl-2） and Bcl-2-associated X protein （Bax）] in the gastric mucosal tissues of rats were assessed. RESULTS Compared with normal control group， model group had abnormal gastric mucosal tissue structure， with shedding of gastric mucosal epithelial cells， and prominent infiltration of inflammatory cells. Gastric mucosal blood flow， the serum levels of MTL， GAS， PP， and Bcl-2 protein expression were lowered significantly， while serum levels of TNF-α， IL-1β and IL-6， apoptosis rate， protein expressions of Bax and TGF-β1， the phosphorylations of PI3K and Akt were increased significantly （P＜0.05）. Compared with model group， Xiangsha yiwei decoction groups exhibited attenuated histopathological injuries in gastric mucosal tissues， reduced inflammatory cell infiltration， and significant improvements in the aforementioned quantitative parameters （P＜0.05）. Compared with high-dose group of Xiangsha yiwei tang， high-dose group of Xiangsha yiwei decoction combined with 740 Y-P exhibited significantly aggravated histopathological injuries in gastric mucosal tissues， and the aforementioned quantitative parameters were markedly reversed （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Xiangsha yiwei tang can alleviate gastric mucosal damage in CAG rats， and its mechanism of action is related to the inhibition of TGF-β1/PI3K/Akt signaling pathway.

In this paper， by referring to ancient and modern literature， the textual research of Kochiae Fructus has been conducted to clarify the name， origin， distribution of production areas， quality specification， taste and efficacy， harvesting time， processing and compatibility taboo， so as to provide reference and basis for the development and utilization of related famous classical formulas. According to the investigation， it can be seen that Difuzi was first published in Sheng Nong's Herbal Classic， and has been used as the official name throughout history. It is also known by other names such as Dimai， Dikui， and Luozhou. The mainstream source of Difuzi in materia medica throughout history is the dried ripe fruit of Kochia scoparia， which is consistent throughout history. In the Han dynasty， it was recorded that Kochiae Fructus was produced in Jingzhou（Hubei province）， while modern literature records its distribution throughout the country， so it does not have obvious geoherbalism. The harvesting period of Kochiae Fructus is mostly in the late autumn， and the quality is best when it is full， gray green in color， and no impurities. There are two processing methods for its origin：from the Southern and Northern dynasties to the Ming dynasty， it was dried in the shade， and after the founding of the People's Republic of China， it was dried in the sun. There are few records about the processing of Kochiae Fructus， and its clinical application is mostly based on raw products as medicine. The seedlings are harvested in February of the lunar calendar， and the leaves are taken in April and May， processing in the place of origin is shade drying， the processing methods include burning ash and frying frost， pounding juice and wine soaking. For internal use， it is mostly decocted or mashed， while for external use， it is mostly washed with decoction or taken in a soup bath. Throughout history， it has been recorded that Kochiae Fructus is bitter and cold， and is mainly used for treating bladder fever. After the founding of the People's Republic of China， most of the literature classified it as damp-clearing medicine. Since the 1985 edition of Chinese Pharmacopoeia， it has been recorded that Kochiae Fructus has a pungent and bitter taste， and a cold nature. Returning to the kidney and bladder meridians with functions of clearing heat and dampness， dispelling wind and relieving itching. The clinical contraindications are mainly prohibited for those with deficiency and no dampness and heat. Throughout history， it has been recorded that the taste of the seedlings and leaves is bitter and cold for treatment of dysentery. Since modern times， it has been used to regulate the liver， spleen and large intestine meridians， with functions such as clearing heat and detoxifying， and diuresis. Based on the textual research， it is recommended to use the dried ripe fruit of K. scoparia when developing the famous classical formulas containing Kochiae Fructus， and processing shall be carried out according to the original processing requirements. If the original formula does not specify the processing requirements， the raw products is taken into medicine.

In this paper， by referring to ancient and modern literature， the textual research of Cnidii Fructus has been conducted to clarify the name， origin， distribution of production areas， quality specification， nature and flavour， efficacy， harvesting and processing， compatibility taboo and others， so as to provide reference and basis for the development and utilization of the relevant famous classical formulas. After textual research， it can be verified that Cnidii Fructus was first published in Sheng Nong's Herbal Classic， the materia medica of all dynasties was named Shechuangzi， and there are also aliases such as Shesu， Shemi， and Qiangmi. The main source for generations was the dried ripe fruit of Cnidium monnieri， and ancient and modern consistent. From the Eastern Han dynasty to Tang dynasty， the origin of Cnidii Fructus was Zibo， Shandong province. During the Five dynasties， it expanded to Yangzhou in Jiangsu province and Xiangyang in Hubei province， the Song dynasty added Shangqiu in Henan province， and it was considered that Yangzhou， Xiangyang and Shangqiu were its genuine producing areas. It was more widely distributed in Ming and Qing dynasties. After the founding of the People's Republic of China， the origin is clearly distributed throughout the country. For its quality evaluation， generally full grain， gray yellow color， strong aroma is the best. The harvesting period in the past dynasties was mostly the fifth lunar month， and the fruit was collected to remove impurities and dry. The mainstream processing in producing area of the past dynasties was net selection of raw products， mixing and steaming with the juice of Rehmanniae Radix and stir-frying were the mainstream processing methods in the past， there were also stir-frying with honey， stir-frying with salt and rice wine， immersing and steaming with rice wine and other methods. In recent times， it has been used in raw products as medicine. Sheng Nong's Herbal Classic recorded Cnidii Fructus was bitter， Supplementary Records of Famous Physicians recorded its acrid for the first time. It was recorded in the Ming dynasty that its nature was warm， acted on the kidney meridian， and had small toxicity. After the founding of the People's Republic of China， most of the literature classified it as a medicine to attack poison， kill insects and relieve itching with the functions of dispelling pathogenic wind and removing dampness， destroying parasites and elieving itching， warming kidney and activating Yang. Clinical contraindications are mainly contraindicated for people with damp-heat from the lower-jiao or kidney heat. Based on the textual research， it is suggested that when developing the famous classical formulas containing Cnidii Fructus， the source shall be the dried ripe fruit of C. monnieri， and then it shall be processed according to the original formulas. If there is no requirement for processing in the formulas， the raw products can be taken into medicine.

By systematically combing ancient and modern literature， this paper examined Tribuli Fructus and Astragali Complanati Semen（ACS） used in the famous classical formulas from the aspects of name， origin， production area， harvesting and processing， clinical efficacy， so as to provide a basis for the development of famous classical formulas containing such medicinal materials. The results showed that the names of Tribuli Fructus in the past dynasties were mostly derived from its morphology， and there were nicknames such as Baijili， Cijili and Dujili. The name of ACS in the past dynasties were mostly originated from its production areas， and there were nicknames such as Baijili， Shayuan Jili and Tongjili. Because both of them had the name of Baijili， confusion began to appear in the Song dynasty. In ancient and modern times， the main origin of Tribuli Fructus were Tribulus terrestris， and ancient literature recorded the genuine producing areas of Tribuli Fructus was Dali in Shaanxi and Tianshui in Gansu， but today it is mainly cultivated in Anhui and Shandong. The fruit is the medicinal part， harvested in autumn throughout history. There is no description of the quality of Tribuli Fructus in ancient times， and the plump， firm texture， grayish-white color is the best in modern times. Traditional processing methods for Tribuli Fructus included stir-frying and wine processing， while modern commonly used is purified， fried and salt-processed. The ancient records of Tribuli Fructus were spicy， bitter， and warm in nature， with modern research adding that it is slightly toxic. The main effects of ancient and modern times include treating wind disorders， improving vision， promoting muscle growth， and treating vitiligo. The mainstream base of ACS used throughout history is Astragalus complanatus. Ancient texts indicated ACS primarily originated from Shaanxi province. Today， the finest varieties come from Tongguan and Dali in Shaanxi. The medicinal part is the seed， traditionally harvested in autumn. Modern harvesting occurs in late autumn or early winter， followed by sun-drying. Ancient texts valued seeds with a fragrant aroma as superior， while modern standards prioritize plump， uniform and free of impurities. Traditional processing methods for ACS included frying until blackened and wine-frying， while modern practice commonly employs purification methods. In terms of medicinal properties， the ancient and modern records are sweet and warm in nature. Due to originally classified under Tribuli Fructus， its effects were thus regarded as equivalent to those of Tribuli Fructus， serving as the medicine for treating wind disorders， additional functions included tonifying the kidneys and treating vitiligo. The present record of its efficacy is to tonify the kidney and promote Yang， solidify sperm and reduce urine， nourish the liver and brighten the eye， etc. Based on the textual research results， it is suggested that when developing the famous classical formulas of Tribuli Fructus medicinal materials， we should pay attention to the specific reference object of Baijili， T. terrestris and A. complanatus should be identified and selected， and the processing method should be in accordance with the requirements of the formulas.

Exosomes represent a class of nanoscale extracellular vesicles that facilitate the exchange of genetic information among various cells.Alzheimer's disease(AD)stands as a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by its subtle and advan-cing onset,representing the foremost form of dementia lacking effective therapeutic interventions.Notably,investigations have illuminated the involvement of exosomes in the pathogenesis of AD,attributing diagnostic and therapeutic significance to their role,particularly concerning exosomal microRNAs(miRNA).The miRNAs carried by exosomes serve as potential biomarkers for AD,while also exhibiting potential benefits in ameliorating cognitive dysfunction in individuals afflicted by AD.This article aims to comprehensively review the origins of exosomes(encom-passing both mesenchymal cell-derived exosomes and brain-de-rived exosomes)and their potential as therapeutic agents targe-ting AD.

Panax notoginseng is the dried root and rhizome of Panax notoginseng(Burk.)F.H.Chen,a perennial erect herb of the genus Ginseng of the family Wujiaceae.As a traditional Chinese medicine in our country,Panax notoginseng has a good tonic effect,and the Dictionary of Traditional Chinese Medicines has the words that Panax notoginseng is used to tonify the blood,remove the blood stasis and damage,and stop epistaxis.It can also be used to pass the blood and tonify the blood with the best efficacy,and it is the most precious one of the prescription med-icines.Eaten raw,it removes blood stasis and generates new blood,subdues swelling and stabilizes pain,stops bleeding with-out leaving stasis,and promotes blood circulation without hurting the new blood;taken cooked,it can be used to replenish and strengthen the body.Notoginsenoside R1 is a characteristic com-pound in the total saponin of Panax ginseng.In recent years,China's aging has been increasing,and the incidence of neuro-logical disorders has been increasing year by year.Meanwhile,reports on notoginsenoside R1 in the treatment of neurological disorders are increasing,and its neuroprotective effects have been exerted with precise efficacy.The purpose of this paper is to review the treatment of neurological diseases and the mecha-nism of action of notoginsenoside R1,so as to provide a certain theoretical basis for clinical use and new drug development.

Objective To investigate clinical effect of tendons pulling,poking and kneading for the treatment of external humeral epicondylitis.Metods From January 2018 to December 2021,a multicenter randomized controlled study was per-formed to collect 192 patients with external humeral epicondylitis in Wangjing Hospital,Beijing Dianli Hospital,and Beijing Fengsheng Osteotraumatology Hospital,respectively,and they were divided into treatment group and control group by random number table method.There were 96 patients in treatment group,including 36 males and 60 females,aged from 28 to 60 years old with an average of(41.20±5.50)years old;the course of disease ranged from 1 to 14 days with an average of(5.24±1.35)days;they were treated once every other day for 2 weeks.There were 96 patients in control group,including 33 males and 63 females,aged from 26 to 60 years old with an average of(43.35±7.75)years old;the course of disease ranged from 1 to 14 days with an average of(5.86±1.48)days;they were treated with topical voltaalin combined with elbow joint fixation for 2 weeks.Visual analogue scale(VAS)and Hospital for Surgery Scoring System(HSS)elbow pronation and supination angles,wrist metacarpal flexion and dorsal extension angles,elbow tenderness between two groups were compared before treatment and at 1,3,5,7,11 and 13 days after treatment;Hospital for Surgery Scoring System 2(HSS2)was compared before treatment and the final treatment.Results All patients were followed up for 10 to 14 days with an average of(12±1.6)days.VAS between treatment group and control group before treatment were 6.83±1.36 and 6.79±1.58,respectively,and decreased to 1.49±1.09 and 2.11±1.81 after the final treatment.VAS of treatment group were significantly lower than those of control group at 1,3,5,7,9,11 and 13 days after treatment(P＜0.05).HSS between two groups were 61.73±11.00 and 36.47±12.45 before treatment,respectively,and increased to 94.42±5.9 and 91.44±9.11 at the final treatment.HSS of treatment group were signifi-cantly higher than those of control group at 1,3,5,7,9,11 and 13 days after treatment(P＜0.05).On the 5th day after treat-ment,the external and internal rotation angles of elbow in treatment group were(66.41±12.69)° and(66.35±13.54)°,while those in control group were(62.08±16.03)° and(61.77±16.35)°.On the 7th day after treatment,the external and internal ro-tation angles of elbow were(69.79±12.64)° and(70.02±13.55)° in treatment group,and(65.28±15.86)° and(65.09± 16.67)° in control group.Elbow joint motion in treatment group was higher than that in control group(P＜0.05).On the 5th day after treatment,angles of wrist dorsiflexion and palm flexion were(39.43±15.94)°and(46.68±11.10)° in treatment group,and(38.51±18.49)° and(44.27±13.58)° in control group.On the 7th day after treatment,angles of wrist dorsiflexion and palm flexion were(42.52±16.50)° and(49.23±10.96)° in treatment group,and(41.18±20.09)° and(46.64±14.63)° in control group.The motion of wrist joint in treatment group was higher than that in control group(P＜0.05).On the 13th day after treatment,HSS2 in treatment group 93.61±6.32 were higher than those in control group 92.06±7.94(P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in elbow tenderness between two groups at each time point(P＞0.05).Conclusion Voltaren external treatment combined with elbow fixation and tendons pulling,poking and kneading could effectively improve symptoms of exter-nal humeral epicondylitis.Compared with voltaren external treatment,tendons pulling,poking and kneading has advantages of longer analgesic time and better elbow function recovery.

Objective:To investigate the effect of CD8+CD28-T cells on acute graft-versus-host disease(aGVHD)after haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(haplo-HSCT).Methods:The relationship between absolute count of CD8+CD28-T cells and aGVHD in 60 patients with malignant hematological diseases was retrospectively analyzed after haplo-HSCT,and the differences in the incidence rate of chronic graft-versus host disease(cGVHD),infection and prognosis between different CD8+CD28-T absolute cells count groups were compared.Results:aGVHD occurred in 40 of 60 patients after haplo-HSCT,with an incidence rate of 66.67％.The median occurrence time of aGVHD was 32.5(20-100)days.At 30 days after the transplantation,the absolute count of CD8+CD28-T cells of aGVHD group was significantly lower than that of non-aGVHD group(P=0.03).Thus the absolute count of CD8+CD28-T cells at 30 days after transplantation can be used to predict the occurrence of aGVHD to some extent.At 30 days after transplantation,the incidence rate of aGVHD in the low cell count group(CD8+CD28-T cells absolute count＜0.06/μl)was significantly higher than that in the high cell count group(CD8+CD28-T cells absolute count ≥0.06/μl,P=0.011).Multivariate Cox regression analysis further confirmed that the absolute count of CD8+CD28-T cells at 30 days after transplantation was an independent risk factor for aGVHD,and the risk of aGVHD in the low cell count group was 2.222 times higher than that in the high cell count group(P=0.015).The incidence of cGVHD,fungal infection,EBV infection and CMV infection were not significantly different between the two groups with different CD8+CD28-T cells absolute count.The overall survival,non-recurrent mortality and relapse rates were not significantly different between different CD8+CD28-T cells absolute count groups.Conclusion:Patients with delayed CD8+CD28-T cells reconstitution after haplo-HSCT are more likely to develop aGVHD,and the absolute count of CD8+CD28-T cells can be used to predict the incidence of aGVHD to some extent.The absolute count of CD8+CD28-T cells after haplo-HSCT was not associated with cGVHD,fungal infection,EBV infection,and CMV infection,and was also not significantly associated with the prognosis after transplantation.

Objective:To investigate the role and mechanism of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell exosomes (hUCMSC-ex) in wounds with escharectomy and skin grafting in scalded rats.Methods:The study was an experimental study. Twelve male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats aged 6-8 weeks were divided into combined treatment group, fixed+allogeneic skin group, autologous skin+allogeneic skin group, and allogeneic skin group by random number table method (the same grouping method hereinafter), with 3 rats in each group. The four groups of rats were inflicted with scalded wounds on the back and performed with escharectomy, and then the wounds of rats in combined treatment group were fixed with a metal ring (the same fixing method hereinafter) and transplanted with autologous skin grafts and allogeneic skin grafts, and the other three groups of rats were fixed and/or transplanted with skin grafts corresponding to the group name. At 14, 21, and 28 d after surgery, the wound healing area in the four groups of rats was measured. Another 15 male SD rats aged 6-8 weeks were divided into normal group with no treatment, high exosome group, low exosome group, supernatant group, and phosphate buffer solution (PBS) group, with 3 rats in each group. The last 4 groups of rats were treated as that in the above-mentioned combined treatment group, and then were injected around the wounds with 200 μL of PBS containing 100 μg of hUCMSC-ex, 200 μL of PBS containing 50 μg of hUCMSC-ex, 200 μL of supernatant with no hUCMSC-ex, and 200 μL of PBS at 0 (immediately), 7, 14, and 21 d after surgery, respectively. At 14, 21, and 28 d after surgery, the wound healing area in the four groups of rats was measured. The wound neo-epithelial tissue of rats in high exosome group and PBS group at 28 d after surgery and the normal skin tissue of rats in normal group at the same time point were taken, and the differentially expressed proteins were screened by label-free quantitative proteomics method; the two up-regulated and differentially expressed proteins, the immunoglobulin G1 heavy chain constant region (IGHG1) and cystatin A (CSTA) with the largest and second largest fold changes in comparison between high exosome group and PBS group were selected, and their protein expressions were detected by Western blotting. The number of samples in all experiments was 3.Results:At 14, 21, and 28 d after surgery, the wound healing area in combined treatment group, autologous skin+allogeneic skin group, and allogeneic skin group of rats was significantly larger than that in fixed+allogeneic skin group ( P<0.05), the wound healing area in autologous skin+allogeneic skin group of rats at 21 d after surgery and that in allogeneic skin group of rats at 14 and 21 d after surgery was significantly larger than that in combined treatment group ( P<0.05), and the wound healing area in allogeneic skin group of rats at 14 d after surgery was significantly larger than that in autologous skin+allogeneic skin group ( P<0.05). The wound healing area of rats in high exosome group and low exosome group at 14, 21, and 28 d after surgery and in supernatant group at 14 and 28 d after surgery was significantly larger than that in PBS group ( P<0.05); the wound healing area in high exosome group of rats at 14 and 21 d after surgery was significantly larger than that in supernatant group ( P<0.05), and the wound healing area at 14 d after surgery was significantly larger than that in low exosome group ( P<0.05); the wound healing area in low exosome group of rats at 14 d after surgery was significantly larger than that in supernatant group ( P<0.05). Compared with that in PBS group, 332 proteins were differentially expressed in the neo-epithelial tissue of the wounds in high exosome group of rats at 28 d after surgery ( P<0.05), among which the protein expressions of IGHG1 and CSTA were significantly up-regulated (with fold change of 12.60 and 2.27, respectively, P<0.05). Compared with those of normal skin tissue in normal group, 1 400 and 1 057 proteins were differentially expressed in the neo-epithelial tissue of the wounds in high exosome group and PBS group of rats at 28 d after surgery, respectively. The protein expressions of IGHG1 and CSTA in the wound neo-epithelial tissue in high exosome group of rats at 28 d after surgery were significantly larger than those in normal skin tissue of rats in normal group ( P<0.05) and those in PBS group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:hUCMSC-ex may accelerate the repair process of wounds with escharectomy and skin grafting and improve the quality of wound healing in scalded rats by regulating the protein expressions of IGHG1 and CSTA.
