Objective·To investigate the effects and molecular mechanisms of phosphatidylethanolamine(PE)on macrophage senescence and its senescence-associated secretory phenotype(SASP),as well as its pathophysiological role in liver injury.Methods·A macrophage senescence model was established using doxorubicin(DOX),followed by PE treatment.A mouse liver injury model was generated via intraperitoneal co-administration of PE and lipopolysaccharide(LPS)to investigate the effects of PE on liver injury.Senescence markers and SASP factors,including senescence-associated β-galactosidase(SA-β-gal),cell cycle inhibitor p21,tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),and interleukin-6(IL-6),were evaluated using SA-β-gal staining,quantitative real-time PCR,and Western blotting.RNA sequencing(RNA-seq)was performed,followed by Gene Ontology(GO)cellular component enrichment analysis,Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)enrichment analysis,Gene Set Variation Analysis(GSVA),and Gene Set Enrichment Analysis(GSEA),to explore the molecular mechanisms and signaling pathways by which PE promotes macrophage senescence.The expression of endoplasmic reticulum(ER)stress-related proteins,including inositol-requiring enzyme 1 α(IRE1α),spliced X-box binding protein 1(XBP1s),activating transcription factor 6(ATF6),ATF4,and C/EBP homologous protein(CHOP),was analyzed through in vivo and in vitro experiments.Results·PE significantly promoted the expression of senescence markers SA-β-gal,p21,p16 and SASP factors.RNA-seq analysis revealed that ER stress was involved in PE-induced promotion of SASP.Further experiments demonstrated that PE activated the ER stress signaling pathway,promoting macrophage senescence and the expression of SASP factors.In vivo experiments further confirmed that PE exacerbated LPS-induced liver injury in mice through ER stress.Conclusion·PE promotes macrophage senescence and the expression of SASP factors by activating ER stress signaling pathway,thereby aggravating LPS-induced liver injury.

Objective To analyze the serum 25-hydroxy vitamin D[25(OH)D]levels and vitamin D nutri-tional status of 0-14 years old children in Hangzhou,and to provide scientific basis for the prevention of vita-min D deficiency.Methods A total of 26 225 healthy children aged 0 to 14 who were tested in Hangzhou Dian Medical Diagnosis Center from January 1,2021 to December 31,2023 were selected as the study objects.The 25(OH)D levels were detected by direct chemiluminescence method,and the 25(OH)D levels and vitamin D nutritional status of children with different genders,ages and seasons were analyzed and compared.Results The level of 25(OH)D in girls was slightly higher than that in boys,and the difference was statisti-cally significant(P＜0.05).With the increase of age,the level of 25(OH)D continued to decline,and the pro-portion of vitamin D deficiency and vitamin D insufficiency gradually increased.The level of 25(OH)D was the highest in children＜3 years old and the lowest in children 10-14 years old.There was statistical significance in the proportion of vitamin D nutritional status between boys and girls aged 10 to 14(P＜0.05).In the four seasons,children's 25(OH)D level is the highest in spring and the lowest in summer.The difference of 25(OH)D level and vitamin D nutritional status in different seasons was statistically significant(P＜0.05).The proportion of vitamin D deficiency and vitamin D insufficiency in winter was higher than that in other seasons,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusion The nutritional status of vitamin D in 0-14 year old children in Hangzhou is good,but the importance of vitamin D supplementation for children should not be ignored,and active publicity and education should be carried out to prevent vitamin D deficiency.

Objective To investigate the relationship between serum forkhead box F1(FOXF1)and Ape-lin-13 levels and carotid atherosclerosis(CAS)in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM).Methods From January 2022 to March 2024,207 elderly T2DM patients admitted to the hospital(T2DM group)and 52 healthy elderly patients underwent physical examination(control group)were selected as the study objects.The elderly T2DM patients were divided into CAS group(128 cases)and non-CAS group(79 cases)according to the occurrence of CAS.Serum FOXF1 and Apelin-13 levels were detected by real-time flu-orescent quantitative PCR and enzyme-linked immunoadsorption assay.The influencing factors of CAS in eld-erly T2DM patients were determined by multivariate unconditional Logistic regression,and the predictive effi-cacy of serum FOXF1 and Apelin-13 levels was analyzed by receiver operating characteristic curve.Results The levels of FOXF1 and Apelin-13 in T2DM group were lower than those in control group(P＜0.05).The inci-dence of CAS in 207 elderly T2DM patients was 61.84％(128/207).The levels of serum FOXF1 and Apelin-13 in CAS group were lower than those in non-CAS group(P＜0.05).The independent risk factors of CAS in elderly T2DM patients were the duration of T2DM,glycosylated hemoglobin and low density lipoprotein cho-lesterol(P＜0.05),and the independent protective factors were FOXF1 and Apelin-13(P＜0.05).The com-bined prediction of serum FOXF1 and Apelin-13 levels for CAS in elderly T2DM patients was 0.882,which was larger than 0.782 and 0.791 predicted by serum FOXF1 and Apelin-13 levels alone(P＜0.05).Conclu-sion The decrease of serum FOXF1 and Apelin-13 levels in elderly T2DM patients is closely related to CAS,and the combined detection of serum FOXF1 and Apelin-13 levels has a high predictive effect on CAS in elder-ly T2DM patients.

Objective:To analyze the protective effect of a respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) vaccine based on bacterial outer membrane vesicle (OMV) in mice.Methods:The pre-fusion protein (preF) of RSV was linked to the surface of OMV through the transmembrane protein cytolysin A (ClyA) to form the nanovaccine OMV-preF. The morphological characteristics of OMV and OMV-preF were observed under a transmission electron microscope. OMV-preF was intramuscularly injected into BALB/c mice and the elicited humoral and cellular immune responses were evaluated. The protective effect of OMV-preF was assessed by challenging the immunized mice with RSV Long strain. One-way analysis of variance and Tukey test were used for statistical analysis.Results:The results showed that preF was stably expressed in OMV, and both OMV-preF and OMV exhibited a double-layer vesicle structures under the microscope. OMV-preF could significantly activate the cellular and humoral immune responses in mice, causing a significant increase in CD8 + T cells and CD19 + B cells as well as a significant increase in the serum level of specific IgG. The neutralizing antibodies produced in the immunized mice could significantly inhibit the replication of RSV Long strain in vivo. Conclusions:The nanovaccine OMV-preF can induce high-level humoral and cellular immune responses, and the antibodies produced following immunization can effectively inhibit viral replication. This study provides a new strategy for RSV subunit vaccines.

Pulpotomy, which belongs to vital pulp therapy, has become a strategy for managing pulpitis in recent decades. This minimally invasive treatment reflects the recognition of preserving healthy dental pulp and optimizing long-term patient-centered outcomes. Pulpotomy is categorized into partial pulpotomy (PP), the removal of a partial segment of the coronal pulp tissue, and full pulpotomy (FP), the removal of whole coronal pulp, which is followed by applying the biomaterials onto the remaining pulp tissue and ultimately restoring the tooth. Procedural decisions for the amount of pulp tissue removal or retention depend on the diagnostic of pulp vitality, the overall treatment plan, the patient's general health status, and pulp inflammation reassessment during operation. This statement represents the consensus of an expert committee convened by the Society of Cariology and Endodontics, Chinese Stomatological Association. It addresses the current evidence to support the application of pulpotomy as a potential alternative to root canal treatment (RCT) on mature permanent teeth with pulpitis from a biological basis, the development of capping biomaterial, and the diagnostic considerations to evidence-based medicine. This expert statement intends to provide a clinical protocol of pulpotomy, which facilitates practitioners in choosing the optimal procedure and increasing their confidence in this rapidly evolving field.

Objective To understand the surveillance situation of poliovirus in Guangzhou from 2011 to 2024, and to further strengthen polio surveillance and ensure the continued maintenance of a polio-free status. Methods An analysis was conducted on the discovery and investigation results of six cases of vaccine-derived poliovirus (VDPV) detected in Guangzhou. Results A total of 6 VDPV incidents were reported in Guangzhou from 2011 to June 2024, among which 5 incidents were from sewage sample testing in the Liede Sewage Treatment Plant in Guangzhou, all of which were confirmed as VDPV, with 1 for type I, 1 for type II, and 3 for type III. In addition, one confirmed HFMD case was identified as a type VDPV II carrier. No presence of any wild poliovirus (WPV), VDPV cases, or circulating VDPV (cVDPV) was reported. Conclusion Guangzhou City has maintained a high level of vigilance and effectiveness in the monitoring and prevention of polio. Continuously strengthening the construction of the polio monitoring network, optimizing vaccination strategies, and comprehensively improving public health awareness are still the focus of the prevention and control work in the future.

Objective To investigate the expression levels and clinical significance of Galectin-3,interleukin(IL)-1β and IL-9 in peripheral blood of children with refractory mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia(RMPP).Methods A total of 132 hospitalized children diagnosed with RMPP were selected as the RMPP group,and another 128 children with general MPP(GMPP)in the same period were selected as the GMPP group.The clinical data of C-reactive protein(CRP),tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)and procalcitonin(PCT)in pediatric patients were collected.The expression levels of Galectin-3,IL-1β and IL-9 were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).The correlation between Galectin-3,IL-1β and IL-9 levels in peripheral blood of RMPP children and clinical factors were analyzed by Pearson or Spearman methods.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze risk factors of GMPP progression to RMPP.The predictive value of peripheral blood Galectin-3,IL-1β and IL-9 levels to RMPP was analyzed by receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve.Results The heat course,CRP,TNF-α,PCT,Galectin-3,IL-1β,IL-9 and the proportion of extrapulmonary complications were higher in the RMPP group than those in the GMPP group(P＜0.01).The correlation analysis results showed that Galectin-3,IL-1β and IL-9 levels were positively correlated with heat course,extrapulmonary complications,CRP,TNF-α and PCT(P＜0.01).Logistic regression analysis showed that the increased levels of Galectin-3,IL-1β and IL-9 were independent risk factors for GMPP progression to RMPP(P＜0.05).The area under the curve(AUC)of peripheral blood Galectin-3,IL-1β,IL-9 and their combined prediction of GMPP progression to RMPP were 0.852,0.813,0.812 and 0.949,respectively,and the combined prediction showed the highest efficacy(P＜0.01).Conclusion The levels of Galectin-3,IL-1β and IL-9 in the peripheral blood of children with RMPP are abnormally elevated,and their combined detection can be used as an important indicator for evaluating the progression of GMPP to RMPP.
