Aim To investigate the therapeutic effect of luteolin(LUT)on myasthenia gravis(MG)rats and its mechanism.Methods Female Lewis rats were di-vided into five groups:C group,MG group,low dose luteolin group(L-LUT),medium dose luteolin group(M-LUT)and high dose luteolin group(H-LUT),with 12 rats in each group.Rats in C group were nor-mal control rats.Rats in other groups were MG model rats induced by subcutaneous injection of Rα97-116.Rats in C group and MG group were intragastrically fed with 1 mL corn oil.Rats in L-LUT group,M-LUT group and H-LUT group were intragastrically infused with 1 mL 10,20 and 40 mg·kg-1 luteolin solution,respectively.The administration period was four weeks.Lennon grading method was used to score clini-cal symptoms,and EMG evoked potential instrument was used to detect the attenuation rate of low frequency repetitive nerve stimulation(RNS).The morphology of skeletal muscle was observed by hematoxylin eosin(HE)staining.The levels of serum AChR antibody(AChR-Ab),interferon gamma(IFN-γ)and interleu-kin-4(IL-4)were detected by ELISA method.The activity of superoxide dismutase(SOD)in skeletal muscle was detected by visible spectrophotometry,and glutathione peroxidase(GSH-Px)and malondialde-hyde(MDA)were detected by micromethod.The mR-NA levels of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptorγ coactivator-1α(PGC-1α),nuclear respiratory factor 1(NRF1)and mitochondrial transcription factor A(TFAM)in skeletal muscle were measured by qRT-PCR.The protein expression levels of AMP-activated protein kinase α(AMPKα)and p-AMPKα in skeletal muscle were detected by Western blot.Results Com-pared with C group,Lennon score and RNS decay rate in MG group increased,AChR-Ab and IFN-γ levels increased,skeletal muscle showed obvious injury,SOD and GSH-Px levels decreased,MDA levels in-creased,p-AMPKα protein expression levels and PGC-1α,NRF1 and TFAM mRNA levels decreased(P＜0.05).Compared with MG group,Lennon score and RNS decay rate in L-LUT group and M-LUT group M and H-LUT group decreased,AChR-Ab and IFN-γlevels decreased,skeletal muscle damage was allevia-ted,SOD and GSH-Px levels increased,MDA levels decreased,p-AMPKα protein expression levels and PGC-1α,NRF1 and TFAM mRNA levels increased(P＜0.05).Conclusion The mechanism of luteolin in treating MG rats may be related to correcting the bal-ance of Th1/Th2 cells and activating AMPK.

Aim To investigate the effects of multi-gly-cosides of Tripterygium wilfordii(GTW)on mitochon-drial dynamics-related proteins and the mechanism of nephroprotective effects in IgA nephrophathy(IgAN)rats.Methods SPF grade male SD rats were random-ly divided into the Control group,modelling group,prednisone group(6.25 mg·kg·d-1)and GTW group(6.25 mg·kg·d-1).The IgAN rat model was established by the method of"bovine serum albumin(BSA)+carbon tetrachloride(CCl4)+lipopolysac-charide(LPS)".The total amount of urinary protein(24 h-UTP)and erythrocyte count in urine were meas-ured in 24 h urine.Blood biochemistry of serum albu-min(ALB),alanine aminotransferase(ALT),urea ni-trogen(BUN),and creatinine(Scr)were measured in abdominal aorta of the rats;immunofluorescence and HE staining were used to observe the histopathology of the kidneys;RT-PCR and Western blotting were used to detect the mRNA and protein expression levels of key proteins regulating mitochondrial division and fu-sion:dynamin-related protein 1(Drp1),mitochondrial fusion protein 1(Mfn1),and mitochondrial fusion pro-tein 2(Mfn2),and PTEN-induced putative kinase 1(Pink1),in the kidney tissue of rats.Results GTW significantly reduced urinary erythrocyte count and 24 h-UTP,decreased serum ALT,BUN and Scr levels,in-creased serum ALB levels,improved renal histopatho-logical status in IgAN rats,increased the protein and mRNA expression levels of Mfn1,Mfn2,and Pink1,and decreased the protein and mRNA expression levels of Drp1 in renal tissues.Conclusions GTW may regu-late mitochondrial structure and maintain the dynamic balance of mitochondrial dynamics by promoting the ex-pression of Mfn1,Mfn2,Pink1 and decreasing Drp1.This may result in a reduction in urinary erythrocyte counts and proteinuria,and an improvement in renal function.

Aim To explore the mechanism of action of Tripterygium glycosides tablets on kidney of rats with IgA nephropathy based on inflammation-related path-ways.Methods Forty-five male SD rats of SPF grade were randomly divided into control group and modeling group.In addition to the blank group,the modeling group used the combination of bovine serum albumin(BSA)+carbon tetrachloride(CC14)+lipopolysac-charide(LPS)to establish the IgA nephropathy rat model.Successfully modeled rats were randomly divid-ed into the model group,the prednisone group and Tripterygium glycosides tablets group,and the treat-ment group was given the drug by gavage from the 13 th week,and the 24 hours urine,blood and kidney tis-sues of the rats were collected and examined after 4 weeks of the administration of the drug.Urine erythro-cyte count,quantitative 24-h urine protein(24 h-UTP),urea nitrogen(BUN),and blood creatinine(Scr)were detected in each group;serum interleukin 1β(IL-1β)and tumor necrosis factor α(TNF-α)were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(Elisa);the pathological changes in the renal tissues of the rats in each group were observed by horizontal hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining;and the renal tis-sues in each group were observed by Western blotting.The expressions of LIGHT,HVEM,LTβR proteins and their mRNAs in rat kidney tissue were detected by Western blot and real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR).Results Tripterygium glycosides tablets significantly reduced the levels of urinary erythrocyte count,24 h-UTP,BUN,and Scr in IgA nephropathy rats(P＜0.01),improved renal histopathology,lowered the levels of se-rum inflammatory factors IL-1β and TNF-α(P＜0.01),and lowered the levels of LIGHT,HVEM,LTβR proteins and their mRNA expression in renal tis-sues(P＜0.01).Conclusions Tripterygium glyco-sides tablets may inhibit the immune response and re-duce the release of inflammatory factors by down-regu-lating the LIGHT-HVEM/LT(3R pathway,thus reduc-ing the inflammatory response,lowering the urinary e-rythrocytes and urinary proteins,improving the renal nephron pathologic injury,and protecting the renal function.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

OBJECTIVE To provide reference for Smilax glabra quality control. METHODS UPLC method was established to simultaneously determine the contents of 5-O-caffeoylshikimic acid， neoastilbin， astilbin， neoisoastilbin， isoastilbin， engelitin， resveratrol and isoengelitin in 20 batches of S. glabra from different areas （No. S1-S20）. The quality evaluation of 20 batches of samples was performed by chemometrics； the differential biomarkers that affected the quality of S. glabra were screened. RESULTS The measured 8 components had good linear relationship within the range of measured concentration （r≥0.999 6）. RSDs of precision， repeatability and stability tests （24 h） were all lower than 2.00% （n＝6）. The average recoveries varied between 97.60% and 106.40% （RSDs were all lower than 2.00%， n＝6）. Cluster analysis showed that the samples produced in Zhejiang （S1-S5） and Jiangxi （S6-S10） were clustered into one category； the samples produced in Hunan （S11-S15） were clustered into one category； the samples produced in Yunnan （S16-S20） were clustered into one category. Principal component analysis showed that the first two principal components could represent 85.60% information of 8 components in S. glabra. Partial least squares-discriminant analysis showed that variable importance projection values of 5-O-caffeoylshikimic acid， astilbin， isoastilbin and neoastilbin were all greater than 1. CONCLUSIONS There are differences in the contents of the above 8 components in S. glabra from different origins； 5-O-caffeoylshikimic acid， astilbin， isoastilbin and neoastilbin may be differential markers affecting the quality of S. glabra.

AIM: To assess the protective effect of adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells(ADSCs)exosomes on injured retinal ganglion cells(RGCs)by establishing an in vitro rat RGC pressure injury model.METHODS: ADSCs were cultured, and exosomes were extracted from the supernatant and identified. Rat RGCs were divided into a control group, pressure model groups(40, 80, 120 mmHg), and exosome-treated groups under different pressures. Cell proliferation activity was assessed using the CCK-8 assay. The mRNA expression levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF)and Caspase-3 in RGCs were detected by qPCR, and protein levels were measured by Western Blot.RESULTS: The CCK-8 assay showed that cell proliferation activity in the control group increased significantly at 48 h compared to 24 h(P<0.05). At 48 h, cell viability in the exosome-treated groups increased significantly compared to the 40, 80, and 120 mmHg pressure model groups(all P<0.05). qPCR results indicated that BDNF mRNA expression decreased in the 40 mmHg pressure model group without statistical significance(P>0.05), and significantly decreased in the 80 and 120 mmHg pressure model groups(all P<0.05). BDNF mRNA expression significantly increased in the 40 and 80 mmHg pressure model groups after exosome treatment(both P<0.05), and increased in the 120 mmHg pressure model group without statistical significance(P>0.05). Caspase-3 mRNA expression increased in the 40 mmHg pressure model group without statistical significance(P>0.05), and significantly increased in the 80 and 120 mmHg pressure model groups(all P<0.05). Caspase-3 mRNA expression significantly decreased in the 40 and 80 mmHg pressure model groups after exosome treatment(P<0.05), and decreased in the 120 mmHg pressure model group without statistical significance(P>0.05). Western Blot analysis showed that BDNF protein expression decreased in the 40 mmHg pressure model group without statistical significance(P>0.05), and significantly decreased in the 80 and 120 mmHg pressure model groups(all P<0.001). After exosome treatment, BDNF protein expression significantly increased compared to the pressure model groups(all P<0.05). Caspase-3 protein expression increased significantly in all pressure model groups compared to the control group(all P<0.05), and significantly decreased in all exosome-treated groups compared to the model groups(all P<0.05).CONCLUSION: ADSCs-derived exosomes enhance cell proliferation and viability in cultured rat RGCs in vitro under different pressure-induced injuries, enhance BDNF mRNA and protein expression levels, and reduce Caspase-3 mRNA and protein expression levels, suggesting that ADSCs-derived exosomes have a protective effect on pressure-injured in cultured rat RGCs in vitro.

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a malignant clonal disease of hematopoietic stem cells, characterized by the proliferation of abnormal primordial cells of myeloid origin in bone marrow, blood and other tissues. At present, the standard induction therapy for AML mainly includes “3+7” standard treatment(anthracycline combined with cytarabine), allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (Allo-HSCT) and targeted drug therapy. However, AML cells usually express high levels of P-glycoprotein, which mediates the efflux of chemotherapeutic drugs, which makes AML cells resistant to chemotherapy, resulting in many patients who are not sensitive to chemotherapy or relapse after complete remission. And some patients can not tolerate intensive therapy or lack of donors and can not use Allo-HSCT therapy. Therefore, it is of great clinical significance to find new drugs to improve the efficacy of AML patients. Epigenetic disorders play a key role in the pathogenesis of many diseases, especially cancer. Studies have shown that most AML patients have epigenetic regulatory gene mutations, such as DNMT3A, IDH and TET2, and these mutations are potentially reversible, which has become one of the therapeutic targets of AML. Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) can regulate the balance between histone acetylation and deacetylation, change the expression of proto-oncogenes or tumor suppressor genes that control cancer progression from epigenetics, and play an important role in many kinds of tumor therapy. At present, HDACi has shown the ability to induce differentiation, cell cycle arrest and apoptosis of AML cells. The mechanism may be mainly related to HDACi inducing chromatin conformation opening of tumor suppressor gene by inhibiting HDAC activity, promoting oncogene damage and preventing oncogene fusion protein from recruiting HDAC. Although the preclinical outcome of HDACi is promising, it is not as effective as the conventional therapy of AML. However, the combination strategy with various anticancer drugs is in clinical trials, showing significant anti-AML activity, improving efficacy through key targeting pathways in a typical synergistic or additive way, increasing AML sensitivity to chemotherapy, reducing tumor growth and metastasis potential, inhibiting cell mitotic activity, inducing cell apoptosis, regulating bone marrow microenvironment, which provides a good choice for the treatment of AML. Especially for those AML patients who are not suitable for intensive therapy and drug resistance to chemotherapy. This review introduces the relationship between HDAC and cancer; the classification of HDAC and its function in AML; the correlation between HDAC and AML; the clinical application of five types of HDACi; preclinical research results and clinical application progress of six kinds of HDACi in AML, such as Vrinota, Belinostat, Panobinostat, Valproic acid, Entinostat, and Chidamide, the mechanism of HDACi combined with other anticancer drugs in AML indicates that the current HDACi is mainly aimed at various subtypes of pan-HDAC inhibitors, with obvious side effects, such as fatigue, thrombocytopenia, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea. In recent years, the next generation of HDACi is mainly focused on the selectivity of analogues or isomers. Finding the best combination of HDACi and other drugs and the best timing of administration to balance the efficacy and adverse reactions is a major challenge in the treatment of AML, and the continued development of selective HDACi with less side effects and more accurate location is the key point for the development of this drug in the future. It is expected to provide reference for clinical treatment of AML.
