OBJECTIVE To analyze and identify the metabolites of pirtobrutinib （PTN） in rats， and clarify the possible metabolic pathways of PTN in rats. METHODS Six rats were intragastrically administered with 10 mg/kg PTN suspension. Blood samples were collected from the rats 30 minutes before administration and at 0.25， 0.5， 1， 2， 4， 6， 8， 12， 24 hours after administration. Urine and feces samples were collected 12 hours before administration and 24 hours after administration. UHPLC- Orbitrap Exploris 240 system combined with Compound Discoverer 3.0 and Xcalibur 2.0 software were adopted for structural identification and metabolic pathway analysis of PTN metabolites in rat plasma， urine， and feces. RESULTS A total of 29 PTN metabolites were identified， including 17， 19 and 22 metabolites in plasma， urine and feces， respectively. The metabolic pathways of PTN mainly included oxidation， sulfation， glucuronidation， etc.， and its metabolites were mostly combination products of two or more different metabolic forms. In detail， a total of 26 metabolites were associated with phase Ⅰ metabolic reactions （14 oxidation metabolites， 9 reduction/dehydrogenation metabolites， 8 demethylation metabolites， and 5 hydrolysis metabolites）. Meanwhile， a total of 20 products were involved in phase Ⅱ metabolites （14 sulfation metabolites and 8 glucuronic acid binding metabolites）. CONCLUSIONS PTN exhibits a diverse range of metabolites in rat fecal samples， with the primary metabolic pathways being oxidation， sulfation， glucuronidation， and others.

Background Although current evidence suggests a link between outdoor air pollution and depressive symptoms, the effect of solid fuel use (a significant indoor air pollutant) on depressive symptoms in China's rural middle-aged and elderly population remains poorly understood. Objective To explore the association between solid fuel use for cooking and depressive symptoms among middle-aged and elderly people in rural areas of China, and to provide a basis for the prevention and control of depressive symptoms among residents in rural areas. Methods Data were obtained from the 2020 China Family Panel Studies (CFPS), depressive symptoms were assessed using 8-item Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D), and cooking fuel type was self-reported. Subsequently, two-level binary unconditional logistic regression models were fitted to assess the impact of solid fuel use for cooking on depressive symptoms. Results A total of 7991 participants aged 45 years and older [mean age (58.52±9.18) years] were included in the study, with a mean CES-D score of 6.07±4.48 and a mean positive depressive symptoms rate of 34% (40.54% in the solid fuel group and 30.81% in the clean fuel group, χ²=74.40, P<0.001). After controlling for potential confounding covariates, rural middle-aged and elderly residents in the solid fuel group had a higher risk of reporting depressive symptoms than those in the clean fuel group (OR=1.36, 95%CI: 1.20-1.54), an association that was unaffected by participant characteristics and was positive across age and gender groups. Conclusion There is a positive association between solid fuel use for cooking and depressive symptoms in middle-aged and elderly people in rural areas of China. It is recommended that rural areas promote the upgrading of stoves through the installation of ventilation equipment or the switch from solid cooking fuel to clean fuel. This approach is directed toward reducing exposure to household air pollution, alleviating the prevalence of depression among middle-aged and elderly residents in vast rural areas, and enhancing their mental health.

OBJECTIVE To establish a mouse model of diabetes mellitus(DM)combined with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2(SARS-CoV-2)infection to investigate the important pathophysiological changes in the development of DM combined with SARS-CoV-2 infection.METHODS Wild-type(WT)mice and transgenic mice expressing the human angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 receptor driven by the cytokeratin-18 gene promoter(K18-hACE2)were randomly divided into the control group,DM group,SARS-CoV-2 spike protein(S)infection group and DM combined with S protein infection group,with 10 to 12 mice in each group.All the mice were induced by 10 weeks of high-fat diet combined with 40 mg·kg-1 streptozotocin(STZ)for 3 days by ip,except those in the control group or S protein infection group.The control group was given the same volume of 0.1 mol·L-1 sodium citrate buffer.Mice in the S protein infection group and DM+S protein infection group were additionally given 50 μL mixture of 15 μg SARS-CoV-2 spike protein and 1 g·L-1 polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid(poly[I:C])via intranasal drops,while the control group was given an equal volume of sterile water.The glucose tolerance level and pancreatic islet β cell function of mice were evaluated via oral glucose tolerance test at the 6th week of high-fat feeding and 1 week after the administration of STZ by ip.From the 6th week of high-fat feeding to 2 weeks after the administration of STZ,the random blood glucose and fasting blood glucose of mice were measured by a blood glucose meter.Blood samples were taken from subman-dibular veins of 3 mice in each group at 24,48 and 120 h after S protein infection,and lung tissues were taken after euthanization.The pathological changes of lungs of DM mice before and after S protein infection were observed by HE staining.Except for the DM group,blood samples were collected before S protein infection and at 6,24,48,72 and 120 h after infection.The levels of plasma interleukin 1β(IL-1β),IL-2,IL-6,IL-10,IL-17,interferon gamma-induced protein 10(IP-10),interferon γ(IFN-γ),tumor necrosis factor α(TNF-α),monocyte chemotactic protein-1(MCP-1)and granulocyte-colony stimulating factor(G-CSF)were detected by Luminex.The plasma levels of heparan sulfate(HS)were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.The levels of cytokines and HS were correlated with the degree of pathological damage by Spearman correlation analysis.RESULTS STZ and high-fat diet could induce DM-like expression in mice,and the random blood glucose(P<0.01)and fasting blood glucose(P<0.05)after 1 week in the hACE2-DM group were significantly higher than in the WT-DM group,and the degree of islet function damage in hACE2-DM mice was significantly higher than that of WT-DM mice(P<0.05).Compared with the DM group,the DM+S group showed more severe pulmonary pathological changes after S protein infection,accompanied by a large number of inflammatory infiltrations and thickening of lung interstitial.Compared with the control group,the levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines G-CSF,IL-6 and IP-10 in the plasma of the WT-S group were significantly increased at 6 h after S pro-tein infection(P<0.01),and those of pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-17 and anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10 were significantly increased at 24 h after S protein infection(P<0.05).Compared with the control group,the plasma levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1β,IL-6,TNF-α,MCP-1,G-CSF and IP-10 in the hACE2-S group were significantly increased at 6 h after S protein infection(P<0.05,P<0.01).IL-17 was significantly increased at 24 h and 6 h after S protein infection in the WT-DM+S group and hACE2-DM+S group,respectively(P<0.01,P<0.05).In the hACE2-DM+S group,IFN-γ and IL-1β were signifi-cantly increased in delay to 48 h(P<0.05,P<0.01),and MCP-1 was significantly increased in delay to 72h(P<0.05).Compared with the control group,the level of HS in the plasma of the WT-S group increased significantly(P<0.05,P<0.01)at 6 h and 24 h after S protein infection,but began to decrease at 48 h.At the same time,compared with the WT-S group,the HS level in the WT-DM+S group was slightly increased at 6 h after infection and decreased at 24 h.Compared with the control group,the HS level in the hACE2-S group was significantly increased at 24 h(P<0.01),as was the case with the WT-S group 24 h,48 h and 120 h after S protein infection.At 6 h,24 h and 48 h after S protein infection,the plasma HS level of the hACE2-DM+S group was significantly increased(P<0.01,P<0.05),and the duration of the increase was longer than in the hACE2-S group.Moreover,the levels of IL-1β,IL-10,MCP-1,IP-10,G-CSF and HS in plasma were positively correlated with the degree of lung dam-age in the DM+S group.CONCLUSION In this study,the mouse model of diabetes combined with SARS-CoV-2 spike protein infection has mimicked part of the pathophysiological features of clinical patients,mainly manifested as blunted immune response and elevated HS levels with longer duration to infection alone.IL-1β,IL-10,MCP-1,IP-10,G-CSF and HS may keep track of the course of disease in patients with diabetes combined with SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Objective To observe the value of right ventricle modified myocardial performance index(RV-Mod-MPI)for evaluating maternal obstetric antiphospholipid syndrome(OAPS)involving fetal right ventricular function.Methods Forty-five pregnant women with maternal OAPS(OAPS group)and 60 healthy pregnant women(control group)were prospectively enrolled.Fetal RV-Mod-MPI was obtained with tricuspid and pulmonary valve flow images by applying pulsed wave Doppler(PW).Late pregnancy conditions and data of newborns after delivery were recorded.The indexes were compared between groups.Receiver operating characteristic curve was drawn,and the area under the curve(AUC)was used to assess the efficacy of fetal RV-Mod-MPI for predicting adverse pregnancy outcomes in OAPS group.Results Compared with those in control group,OAPS group had higher fetal RV-Mod-MPI values,lower newborn birth weight and lower Apgar score at 1 min after birth,as well as higher probability of adverse pregnancy outcomes(all P＜0.05).The AUC of fetal RV-Mod-MPI for predicting adverse pregnancy outcome in OAPS group was 0.726.Conclusion RV-Mod-MPI could be used to evaluate maternal OAPS involving fetal right ventricular function and predict adverse pregnancy outcomes.

Objective:A SARS-CoV-2 pseudovirus(PsV)system was established for neutralizing antibody evaluation and virus entry inhibitor screening.Methods:Lentiviral vector plasmids psPAX2,pCDH-Luc and SARS-CoV-2 Spike(S)protein expres-sion plasmids were co-transfected,and harvested pseudoviral supernatant was used to infect ACE2-293T cells.Protein content of p24 was determined to reflect titer of PsV,and expression of S protein in PsV was detected by Western blot.Neutralization capacity of an S protein monoclonal antibody was evaluated using original strain,D614G,Gamma,Delta,Omicron PsV.Two reported virus entry inhibitors,chloroquine and carrageenin,were used to detect effect on entry of Omicron PsV.Results:Lentiviral vector successfully incorporated S protein.Western blot results showed that S protein mutated at 665Y showed a different cleavage form(90 kD)than wild-type full-length S protein(180 kD).Titer of PsV packaged by three plasmids system was higher.Ratio of S protein expression plasmid,transfer plasmid and packaging plasmid at 1∶3∶3 was optimum condition for viral packaging.Titer of PsV packaged under this condi-tion was over 20 ng/ml.PsV could effectively infect ACE2-293T cells,and double reporter gene GFP and firefly luciferase were expressed obviously,whose chemiluminescence values reached 106.Monoclonal antibodies of S protein effectively neutralized four types of PsVs,but neutralization of original strain was 10～30 times greater than that of variant PsV.Virus entry inhibitors,chloroquine and ι-carrageenan significantly inhibited entry of Omicron PsV.Conclusion:SARS-CoV-2 PsV infection system we conducted can simu-late entry of SARS-CoV-2 successfully.Effective pharmacodynamic evaluation of neutralizing antibodies and virus entry inhibitors can be performed efficiently by the system,which can provide a technical platform for evaluation of neutralizing antibody of SARS-CoV-2 and screening of virus entry inhibitors,and would benefit R&D of anti-SARS-CoV-2 drugs.

Objective:To study the life characteristics and related risk factors of patients with depression in Shandong Province.Methods:Based on the 2015 mental epidemiological survey database in Shandong Province,a total of 832 patients with depression,807 high-risk individuals with depression,and 819 low-risk individuals were diagnosed according to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders,Fourth Edition(DSM-Ⅳ)and the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-Ⅳ-TR Axis I Disorders,Research Version(SCID-I/P).In 2020,SCID-I/P was used for re diagnosis,and the General Health Questionnaire(GHQ-12),Simple Quality of Life question-naire,Pittsburgh sleep quality index(PSQI),Childhood Trauma Questionnaire(CTQ),Social Support Rating Scale(SSRS),Global Pain Scale(GPS),Montreal Cognitive Assessment(MoCA),Simplified Coping Style Question-naire(SCSQ)were used for evaluation.Compare changes in the quality of life of depression patients and construct a risk factor model.Results:Patients with depression had lower scores on the simple quality of life questionnaire at baseline and at retest after 5 years than those in the high-and low-risk groups,those in remission of depression had higher scores on the simple quality of life questionnaire at baseline and at retest after 5 years than those in non-re-mission,and those with new-onset disorder in the high-and low-risk groups had lower scores on the simple quality of life questionnaire at baseline and at retest after 5 years than those with no-onset disorder(Ps＜0.001).Depres-sion diagnosis and PSQI scale scores at baseline negatively predicted at retest after 5 years(β=-0.06,-0.15),while coping style tendencies at baseline positively predicted(β=0.06).The simple quality of life questionnaire at baseline negatively predicted depression diagnosis at retest after 5 years,GHQ-12 scores at retest after 5 years,and PSQI scale scores at retest after 5 years(β=-0.11,-0.17,-0.09),while the simple quality of life question-naire at baseline positively predicted coping style tendencies at retest after 5 years(β=0.13).Depression diagnosis at retest after 5 years,GHQ-12 scores at retest after 5 years,PSQI scale scores at retest after 5 years,coping style tendencies at retest after 5 years,SSRS scale scores,CTQ scale scores,GPS scale scores,and the simple quality of life questionnaire at baseline all influenced the simple quality of life questionnaire at retest after 5 years through ei-ther direct or indirect pathways.Conclusion:It suggest that the quality of life is lower in patients with depression than in the general population.Depression diagnosis,sleep,mental health,pain,social support,childhood trauma and coping are direct and indirect risk factors affecting life.

Recent progress in targeted metabolic therapy of cancer has been limited by the considerable toxicity associated with such drugs. To address this challenge, we developed a smart theranostic prodrug system that combines a fluorophore and an anticancer drug, specifically 6-diazo-5-oxo-l-norleucine (DON), using a thioketal linkage (TK). This system enables imaging, chemotherapy, photodynamic therapy, and on-demand drug release upon radiation exposure. The optimized prodrug, DON-TK-BM3, incorporating cyanine dyes as the fluorophore, displayed potent reactive oxygen species release and efficient tumor cell killing. Unlike the parent drug DON, DON-TK-BM3 exhibited no toxicity toward normal cells. Moreover, DON-TK-BM3 demonstrated high tumor accumulation and reduced side effects, including gastrointestinal toxicity, in mice. This study provides a practical strategy for designing prodrugs of metabolic inhibitors with significant toxicity stemming from their lack of tissue selectivity.

Objective The objective of this study is to investigate whether there is a correlation between a high TyG index(serum triglyceride glucose index)and higher mortality rates among patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis(PD).Methods This study utilized a single-center retrospective cohort as the basis for its methods..From January 1,2007 to December 31,2015,a total of 519 PD patients kept under observation until December 31,2018.There searchers employed the Kaplan-Meier method and Cox proportional hazards modelsto examine the cor-relation between TyG index levels and mortality.Results Over a period of 40.5 months,104(20.0%)individuals with Parkinson's disease passed away,with 55(52.9%)of these deaths attributed to cardiovascular disease(CVD).The serum median TyG index at baseline was 8.44(6.48,11.94).Through Cox regression analysis subject to the adjustments of such parameters as gender,age,body mass index(BMI),presence of cardiovascular disease,hypertension,diabetes mellitus,hemoglobin,serum albumin,serum Ferritin,total cholesterol,renal residual function(RRF),An increased risk of all-cause mortality(HR = 2.22,95%CI:1.43～3.44,P＜0.001)and CVD mortality(HR = 2.50,95%CI:1.34～4.65,P = 0.004)was observed with a higher baseline TyG index(8.44).A comparable impact was observed in the correlation between the average TyG index over time(TA-TyG index)and both all-cause mortality and CVD mortality.(HR = 1.90,95%CI:1.25～2.90,P = 0.003;HR = 2.05,95%CI:1.14～3.70,P = 0.017,respectively).Conclusion PD patients with a higher serum TyG index have a greater risk of all-cause mortality and mortality related to cardiovascular disease.
