ObjectiveTo elucidate the chemical composition of Danshenyin and its blood components in rats after oral administration. MethodsUltra performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometry（UPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS） coupled with PeakView 1.2 software was used to systematically characterize and identify the components of Danshenyin aqueous extract and its migratory components in rat blood after oral administration based on the retention time， quasi-molecular ion peaks， secondary fragmentation ions， and literature reports， and a preliminary compounds identification of Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma aqueous extract， the co-decoction of Santali Albi Lignum and Amomi Fructus was carried out to attribute the chemical constituents of the aqueous extract of Danshenyin. ResultsA total of 73 compounds， including 21 phenolic acids， 23 diterpenes， 6 flavonoids， 7 organic acids， 3 volatile oils and 13 others， were identified from the aqueous extract of Danshenyin. And 36 prototypes and 15 metabolites were identified in rat plasma， the major metabolic pathways included reduction， hydration， hydroxylation， demethylation， methylation， sulfation and others， these metabolites were mainly derived from tanshinones and salvianolic acids. ConclusionThe main blood components of the aqueous extract of Danshenyin are salvianolic acids and tanshinones， which may be the material basis of the efficacy. This study can provide reference for pharmacological research， quality control， and clinical application of Danshenyin.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical value of holographic imaging-based digital localization technology in robot-assisted partial nephrectomy（RAPN）for the treatment of completely endophytic renal tumors.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 23 patients with completely endophytic renal tumors who underwent RAPN at the First Affiliated Hospital of Xiamen University between December 2022 and December 2024. Patients were divided into two groups based on the use of holographic imaging：the holographic imaging group（16 cases）and the conventional group（7 cases）. There was no statistically significant difference between the holographic imaging group and the conventional group in terms of age［（41.9 ± 13.4）years vs.（46.9 ± 13.4）years］，body mass index［（25.6 ± 4.8）kg/m2 vs.（24.7 ± 3.1）kg/m2］，maximum tumor diameter［（3.1 ± 0.9）cm vs.（3.0 ± 9.0）cm］，tumor volume［（13.2 ± 9.0）cm3 vs.（34.9 ± 9.9）cm3］，R.E.N.A.L. score［（9.4 ± 1.2）points vs.（9.9 ± 0.7）points］，PADUA score［（10.4 ± 0.7）points vs.（9.4 ± 0.7）points］，proportion of T 1a stage patients［12 cases（75.0%）vs. 6 cases（85.7%）］and preoperative serum creatinine［（67.4 ± 9.5）μmol/L vs.（78.0 ± 16.0）μmol/L］. In the holographic group，holographic models were reconstructed based on preoperative enhanced CT or MRI images and used for preoperative planning and intraoperative localization. In the conventional group，surgeons relied on preoperative CT or MRI images for cognitive fusion during RAPN. Perioperative parameters such as warm ischemia time，operative time，tumor localization time，positive surgical margin rate，and renal function were compared between the two groups. Results:The operative time in the holographic group was significantly shorter than that in the conventional group［（152.8 ± 12.9）min vs.（218.4 ± 105.5）min， P = 0.001］. Warm ischemia time［（26.9 ± 3.4）min vs.（30.7 ± 3.8）min， P < 0.001］，localization time［（4.2 ± 0.9）min vs.（8.9 ± 1.7）min， P < 0.001］，and estimated blood loss［（47.0 ± 17.7）ml vs.（128.6 ± 87.8）ml， P < 0.001］were also significantly lower in the holographic group. In the conventional group，one patient underwent radical nephrectomy，while no patient in the holographic imaging group required conversion to radical nephrectomy. No cases of positive surgical margins were identified in either group. Serum creatinine levels measured one month after surgery showed no statistically significant differences between the two groups［（79.5 ± 15.7）μmol /L vs.（104.9 ± 22.5）μmol /L］. Conclusions:The application of holographic imaging-based digital localization technology in RAPN for completely endophytic renal tumors significantly reduces operative time，localization time，warm ischemia time，and intraoperative blood loss. This technology improves surgical efficiency and success rates，offering distinct clinical advantages.

Objective To investigate the behavioral changes and monoamine neurotransmitter levels in a rat model of chronic unpredictable mild stress(CUMS)-induced depression and explore the potential effects of Vitamin B12(VitB12)on CUMS model rats and the underlying mechanisms.Methods A total of 72 Sprague-Dawley(SD)rats were randomly assigned to 3 groups,a control group,a CUMS group(subjected to three weeks of CUMS),and a CUMS+VitB12 group(CUMS rats receiving microinjections of VitB12 in the neck).The body mass of the rats was measured,and behavioral assessments were conducted using the sucrose preference test,open field test,and forced swimming test.High-performance liquid chromatography(HPLC)was used to analyze the levels of monoamine neurotransmitters,including 5-hydroxytryptamine(5-HT),norepinephrine(NE),and dopamine(DA),in each group of rats.Hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining was performed to observe pathological changes in hippocampal neurons.Western blot was performed to detect the expression of signal pathway-related proteins,including brain-derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF),tropomyosin receptor kinase B(TrkB),and cyclic adenosine monophosphate(cAMP)response element-binding protein(CREB)in the hippocampal tissue.Results Starting from week 5,rats in the CUMS group exhibited lower average body mass compared to the control group,while the CUMS+VitB12 group showed a significant increase in body mass compared to the CUMS group(P＜0.05).At weeks 3 and 6,sucrose preference of rats in the CUMS group was significantly lower than that in the control group(P＜0.001).At week 3,sucrose consumption in the CUMS+VitB12 group was significantly higher than that in the CUMS group(P＜0.01),with a more pronounced increase observed in week 6(P＜0.001).Starting from week 4,the CUMS group showed reduced scores in grid crossing,grooming,and rearing activities in the open field test compared to the control group,indicating reduced locomotor activity and exploratory behavior(P＜0.001).The CUMS+VitB12 group showed improved behavioral performance compared to the CUMS group(P＜0.01,P＜0.001).In the forced swimming test at weeks 3 and 6,the immobility time of rats in the CUMS group was significantly longer than that in the control group(P＜0.01).At week 6,the immobility time of rats in the CUMS+VitB12 group was significantly shorter compared to that of the CUMS group(P＜0.01).HPLC results showed that the levels of 5-HT,NE,and DA in the cerebral cortex of rats in the CUMS group were significantly lower than those in the control group(P＜0.01,P＜0.001),while these neurotransmitter levels were significantly higher in the CUMS+VitB12 group compared to those in the CUMS group(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).HE staining results showed that the number of hippocampal cells in the CUMS group was significantly reduced,with shrunken nuclei,while the CUMS+VitB12 group showed an increased number of neurons with intact morphology compared to the CUMS group(P＜0.05).Western blot analysis showed that the expression levels of BDNF,TrkB,and CREB proteins in the hippocampus were significantly lower in rats in the CUMS group than those in the control group(P＜0.05),while the expression levels of BDNF,TrkB,and phosphorylated CREB(p-CREB)were significantly higher in the CUMS+VitB12 group compared to the CUMS group(P＜0.05).Conclusion In CUMS rats,the levels of monoamine neurotransmitters(5-HT,NE,and DA)in the cerebral cortex of the brain are decreased,accompanied by a decrease in neuronal cells,which results in anxiety-and depression-like behaviors.VitB12 can upregulate the levels of these neurotransmitters,ameliorate the cytopathological conditions,and regulate the BDNF/TrkB/p-CREB signaling pathway,thereby alleviating depressive symptoms.

This article provides an overview of the advances in the application of ultrasonography in the field of dermatology.

Objective To explore the effect of nicotinamide transmethylase on intracellular reactive oxygen species(ROS)in iron death of hepatocellular carcinoma cells and its mechanism.Methods Methyl nicotinamide(MNA)expression in cells was detected using a tandem liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry.The average fluorescence intensity of ROS and lipid peroxidation was measured using a flow cytometer.Western blot was used to detect changes in the expression of human liver cancer cells(SK-Hep-1,Hep3B).Forty patients with primary hepatocellular carcinoma who received treatment in our hospital from March 2019 to February 2020 were selected as the study subjects,and their adjacent tissue samples and liver cancer tissue samples were collected.Immunohistochemical methods were used to detect the levels of nicotinamide N-methyltransferase(NNMT)and ROS in adjacent and liver cancer tissues.CCK-8 method was used to detect the survival activity of cells with different iron concentrations.Results The MNA levels in the liver cancer tissue group were higher than those in the adjacent tissue group(P<0.05).Compared with the adjacent tissue group,the average fluorescence intensity expression of ROS in the liver cancer tissue group increased,while the average fluorescence intensity expression of lipid peroxidation decreased(P<0.05).Compared with the adjacent tissue group,the expression levels of SK Hep-1 and Hep3B cells in the liver cancer tissue group increased(P<0.05).Compared with the control group,NNMT groups 2,10,20,and 25 μmol/L The cell survival activity level increased(P<0.05);Compared with the NNMT group,the iron inhibition group had different iron concentrations(2μmol/L,10μmol/L,20μmol/L,25μmol/L.The expression of cell viability decreased(P<0.05).Conclusion ROS mediated by nicotinamide methyltransferase can be guided to produce ROS and energy disorders,leading to increased tumor cell death.

Background::Atopic dermatitis (AD) affects approximately 10% of adults worldwide. CM310 is a humanized monoclonal antibody targeting interleukin-4 receptor alpha that blocks interleukin-4 and interleukin-13 signaling. This trial aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of CM310 in Chinese adults with moderate-to-severe AD.Methods::This multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 2b trial was conducted in 21 medical institutions in China from February to November 2021. Totally 120 eligible patients were enrolled and randomized (1:1:1) to receive subcutaneous injections of 300 mg CM310, 150 mg CM310, or placebo every 2 weeks for 16 weeks, followed by an 8-week follow-up period. The primary endpoint was the proportion of patients achieving ≥75% improvement in the Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI-75) score from baseline at week 16. Safety and pharmacodynamics were also studied.Results::At week 16, the proportion of EASI-75 responders from baseline was significantly higher in the CM310 groups (70% [28/40] for high-dose and 65% [26/40] for low-dose) than that in the placebo group (20%[8/40]). The differences in EASI-75 response rate were 50% (high vs. placebo, 95% CI 31%–69%) and 45% (low vs. placebo, 95% CI 26%–64%), with both P values <0.0001. CM310 at both doses also significantly improved the EASI score, Investigator’s Global Assessment score, daily peak pruritus Numerical Rating Scale, AD-affected body surface area, and Dermatology Life Quality Index compared with placebo. CM310 treatment reduced levels of thymus and activation-regulated chemokine, total immunoglobulin E, lactate dehydrogenase, and blood eosinophils. The incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) was similar among all three groups, with the most common TEAEs reported being upper respiratory tract infection, atopic dermatitis, hyperlipidemia, and hyperuricemia. No severe adverse events were deemed to be attributed to CM310. Conclusion::CM310 at 150 mg and 300 mg every 2 weeks demonstrated significant efficacy and was well-tolerated in adults with moderate-to-severe AD.Trial Registration::ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT04805411.

Objective:To demonstrate the polymorphism of α chain of bovine major histocompatibility complex(BoLA)classⅠmolecule and domain binding constant chain(Ii).Methods:Total 75 BoLA Iα genes were obtained from three Huaibei cattle and analyzed by molecular biology software;the genes of typical BoLA Iα domains and Ii were cloned,and then inserted into prokaryotic expression plasmid.After induced protein expression;the domains of BoLA Ⅰα chain binding to Ii were detected by pull-down meth-od and Western blot.The recombinant eukaryotic expression plasmids were constructed and the co-localization of BoLA Iα segments with Ii was observed by laser confocal microscopy.Results:Firstly,it was found that there were at least 5 kinds of BoLA Iα in the cloned gene sequence,which were highly polymorphic and they were mainly distributed in the antigen peptide binding region(PBR)of BoLA Ⅰ(α1α2)and cytoplasmic region.Secondly,the prokaryotic recombinant plasmids containing BoLA Ⅰα1α2α3,BoLA Ⅰα1α2 or BoLA Ⅰα 3 were constructed,then they were respectively induced to express and purified,in which,the BoLA Ⅰα1α2α3 and BoLA Ⅰα1α2 had the activity of binding to Ii.Finally,in 293T cells BoLA Ⅰα1α 2α3 or BoLA Ⅰα1α2 was found that could co-localize with Ii,while a single BoLA Ⅰα3 could not.Conclusion:BoLA Ⅰα gene is highly polymorphic.BoLA Ⅰα1α2 is a func-tional fragment that binds to Ii and co-locates intracellular.

Background::Growth differentiation factor-15 (GDF-15) is a stress response protein and is related to cardiovascular diseases (CVD). This study aimed to investigate the association between GDF-15 and pre-eclampsia (PE).Method::The study involved 299 pregnant women, out of which 236 had normal pregnancies, while 63 participants had PE. Maternal serum levels of GDF-15 were measured by using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kits and then translated into multiple of median (MOM) to avoid the influence of gestational week at blood sampling. Logistic models were performed to estimate the association between GDF-15 MOM and PE, presenting as odd ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs).Results::MOM of GDF-15 in PE participants was higher compared with controls (1.588 vs. 1.000, p < 0.001). In the logistic model, pregnant women with higher MOM of GDF-15 (>1) had a 4.74-fold (95% CI= 2.23-10.08, p < 0.001) increased risk of PE, adjusted by age, preconceptional body mass index, gravidity, and parity. Conclusions::These results demonstrated that higher levels of serum GDF-15 were associated with PE. GDF-15 may serve as a biomarker for diagnosing PE.
