Under the current legal framework， living will， as an important legal tool for safeguarding patients’ autonomy and dignity， have been widely recognized and implemented in many countries and regions. In China， the promotion of living will also has a solid legal foundation， with their legitimacy reflected in several provisions of the Civil Code of the People’s Republic of China. One of the highlights of the Medical Regulations of the Shenzhen Special Economic Zone （revised in 2022） is the clarification of the legal effect of living will. To ensure that patients’ living will can be accurately implemented at critical moments， the rights and obligations of patients， family members， and healthcare professionals should be clearly defined within the legal framework， and clear guidance should be provided at every stage of implementation.

Aim To explore the effect and mechanism of annexin A1 mimic peptide Ac2-26 on ferroptosis in hu-man umbilical vein endothelial cells(HUVEC).Methods Induction of HUVEC ferroptosis was achieved by the clas-sical ferroptosis agonist RSL3,with subsequent intervention by the annexin A1 mimtic peptide Ac2-26.The cell number and viability were detected by CCK-8 kit,the levels of malondialdehyde(MDA)and glutathione(GSH)were detected by ELISA,the expression of ferroptosis-related molecules and adhesion molecules was detected by Western blot,the lipid re-active oxygen species(ROS)levels were detected by C11-BODIPY fluorescent probe,and the mitochondrial reactive oxy-gen species(mtROS)levels were detected by MitoSOX probe.FeRhoNOX-1 fluorescent probe was used to detect intra-cellular Fe2+content,perspective microscopy was used to observe mitochondrial morphology,JC-1 fluorescent probe was used to detect mitochondrial membrane potential,kit was used to detect ATP levels,the Scratch assay was used to detect cell migration ability,and nitrate reductase assay was used to detect nitric oxide(NO)level.Results Ac2-26 inhibi-ted RSL3-induced decrease in HUVEC viability,up-regulated the expression of suppressor of ferroptosis proteolytic carrier family 7 member 11(SLC7A11),GPX4,and ferritin heavy chain 1(FTH1),increased the GSH content,decreased the MDA content,reduced the generation of intracellular lipid ROS,and decreased the intracellular Fe2+aggregation(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01);Ac2-26 inhibited RSL3-induced damage to HUVEC mitochondrial morphology and function,up-regulated ATP content(P＜0.05)and mitochondrial membrane potential(P＜0.001);Ac2-26 inhibited RSL3-induced decrease in HUVEC migratory ability,up-regulated NO levels,inhibited intercellular adhesion molecule-1(ICAM-1)and interleukin-1β(IL-1β)protein expression(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).Conclusion Ac2-26 inhibits RSL3-induced ferroptosis in HUVEC and maintains mitochondrial morphology and function,as well as HUVEC function.

Genomic instability remains an enabling feature of cancer and promotes malignant transformation. Alterations of DNA damage response (DDR) pathways allow genomic instability, generate neoantigens, upregulate the expression of programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) and interact with signaling such as cyclic GMP-AMP synthase-stimulator of interferon genes (cGAS-STING) signaling. Here, we review the basic knowledge of DDR pathways, mechanisms of genomic instability induced by DDR alterations, impacts of DDR alterations on immune system, and the potential applications of DDR alterations as biomarkers and therapeutic targets in cancer immunotherapy.

Objective To investigate the value of serological screening combined with fetal aneuploidy prenatal noninvasive DNA test ( NIPT) in prenatal diagnosis ,and provide guidance for reducing the birth of children with genetic defects in the future .Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted in 15282 pregnant women with prenatal counseling who performed serological screening and NIPT test .The high risk and critical TANG recommended NIPT test and severe abnormal karyotype children recommend termination of pregnancy .Results Down syndrome screening results showed that 804 cases of 15,282 cases of serological screening samples were detected in high risk , the high risk rate was 5.26％.A total of 804 patients with high risk of Don screen were further tested with noninvasive DNA,which was positive in 10 cases.Among them,8 cases were confirmed by amniocentesis ,including 5 cases of trisomy 21,1 case of trisomy 18 and 2 cases of sex chromosome abnormality (45,XO in one case and 47,XYY in one case),the consistency was 100.00％.Conclusion Noninvasive gene detection of fetal aneuploidy has the advantages of noninvasive ,safe and accurate .It has a wide range of clinical value in the diagnosis of fetal chromosomal abnormalities .

Objective To establish a UPLC-QQQ-MS/MS (ultra-high performance liquid chromatography triple quadrupole tandem mass Spectrometry) method for simultaneous detemination of 8 terpenoids compounds in Tripterygium wilfordii suspension cells. Methods The separation and analysis were performed on Water HSS T3 C18, with 0. 1％ acetic acid solution-acetonitrile as the mobile phase for gradient elution. The column temperature was set at 30 ℃ with flow rate was 0.3 ml/min. The electrospray ionization (ESI) source was applied and operated in alternating positive and negative mode. Multi-reaction monitor (MRM) mode was used to quantify the 8 compounds. Results The limits of detection and limits of quantitation in 8 compounds (triptolide, triptonide, dehydroabietlc acid, triptophenolide, demethylzeylasteral, tripteridine, pristimerin, celastrol) were 0.0096-0.2480 ng and 0.0192-0.4960 ng, respectively. The correlation coefficents (r) of calibration curves were 0.9966-0.9993. The average recovery rates were 95.04％-105.20％, and the relative standard deviation was 2.14％-6.31％. Conclusions The established quantitative method is simple, rapid, sensitive and accuracy. It can be used for simultaneous analysis of 8 terpenoids compounds in Tripterygium wilfordii suspension cells by using UPLC-QQQ-MS/MS, which affords methodology evidence for research and quality control of Triptervgium wilfordii Hook. f. and its plant tissue cultures.
