Objective To elucidate the molecular mechanism of sirtuin-3 (SIRT3) in regulating mitochondrial biogenesis in human renal tubular epithelial cells. Methods Cells were stimulated with different concentrations of H2O2 and divided into four groups: control (NC), 50 μmol/L H2O2, 110 μmol/L H2O2 and 150 μmol/L H2O2. SIRT3 protein expression was then measured. SIRT3 was knocked down with siRNA, and cells were further assigned to five groups: control (NC), negative-control siRNA (NCsi), SIRT3-siRNA (siSIRT3), NCsi+H2O2, and siSIRT3+H2O2. After 24 h, cellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and mitochondrial superoxide anion (O2•−) levels were determined, together with mitochondrial expression of SIRT3, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ coactivator-1α (PGC-1α), nuclear respiratory factor 1 (NRF1), mitochondrial transcription factor A (TFAM), superoxide dismutase 2 (SOD2), acetylated-SOD2 and adenosine monophosphate activated protein kinase α1 (AMPKα1). Results The 110 and 150 μmol/L H2O2 decreased SIRT3 protein (both P<0.05). ATP and mitochondrial O2•− did not differ between NC and NCsi groups (both P>0.05). Compared to the NCsi group, the siSIRT3 group exhibited elevated O2•− level, decreased SIRT3 protein and increased expression levels of SOD2 and acetylated SOD2 protein (all P<0.05). Compared to the NCsi group, the NCsi+H2O2 group exhibited decreased cellular ATP levels, elevated mitochondrial O2•− levels, and reduced protein expression levels of SIRT3, SOD2, TFAM, AMPKα1, PGC-1α and NRF1 (all P<0.05). Compared with the siSIRT3 group, the siSIRT3+H2O2 group showed a decrease in cellular ATP levels, an increase in mitochondrial O2•− levels, a decrease in SIRT3, SOD2, TFAM, AMPKα1, PGC-1α and NRF1 protein expression levels and a decrease in acetylated SOD2 protein expression levels (all P<0.05). Compared with the NCsi+H2O2 group, the siSIRT3+H2O2 group showed a decrease in cellular ATP levels, an increase in mitochondrial O2•− levels, a decrease in SIRT3, AMPKα1, PGC-1α and NRF1, TFAM protein expression levels, and an increase in SOD2 and acetylated SOD2 protein expression levels (all P<0.05). Conclusions SIRT3 promotes mitochondrial biogenesis in tubular epithelial cells via the AMPK/PGC-1α/NRF1/TFAM axis, representing a key mechanism through which SIRT3 ameliorates oxidative stress-induced mitochondrial dysfunction.

Immunotherapy has become a pivotal modality in clinical cancer treatment. However, its effectiveness is limited to a small subset of patients due to the low antigenicity, impaired innate response, and various adaptive immune resistance mechanisms of the tumor microenvironment (TME). Accumulating evidence reveals the critical roles of metal elements in shaping immunity against tumor progression and metastasis. The marriage of metalloimmunotherapy and nanotechnology further presents new opportunities to optimize the physicochemical and pharmacokinetic properties of metal ions in a precise spatiotemporal control manner. Several metallodrugs have demonstrated encouraging immunotherapeutic potential in preliminary studies and are currently undergoing clinical trials at different stages, yet challenges persist in scaling up production and addressing long-term biosafety concerns. This review delineates how metal materials modulate biological activities across diverse cell types to orchestrate antitumor immunity. Moreover, it summarizes recent progress in smart drug delivery-release systems integrating metal elements, either as cargo or vehicles, to enhance antitumor immune responses. Finally, the review introduces current clinical applications of nanomedicines in metalloimmunotherapy and discusses potential challenges that impede its widespread translation into clinical practice.

Hilar cholangiocarcinoma is insidious in onset and often causes obstructive jaundice due to bile stasis,leading to impaired liver function.For tumors with malignant obstructive jaundice,biliary drainage is often performed before surgery in clinical practice.Currently,the commonly used drainage methods are percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage(PTBD)and endoscopic retrograde biliary drain-age(ERBD),but there are controversies over the advantages and disadvantages of the two drainage methods.PTBD drainage can often lead to tumor implantation metastasis,but the underlying mechanism remains unclear.We detected tumor cells in PTBD and ERBD bile samples from hilar cholangiocarcino-ma patients,subsequently explored their tumorigenicity and mechanisms through tumorsphere assay in vitro and xenograft tumor models in vivo.The experiments included benign gallstones group(30 cases)as a negative control,PTBD group(14 cases)and ERBD group(13 cases).Tumorsphere formation was i-dentified in 3 cases(23%)among the 13 cases of ERBD group,in 6 cases(42%)among the 14 cases of PTBD group,but there were no tumor cells or formed tumorspheres in the 30 cases of benign gallstone group.The tumor sphere formation ability of cells in the PTBD group was significantly higher than that in ERBD group.Subcutaneous xenograft tumor assays showed that tumor growth in the PTBD group was sig-nificantly higher than that in the ERBD group.Tumor cells in PTBD bile possessed stronger tumorigenici-ty compared with the ERBD group.Mechanically,stem cell transcription factor Nanog mRNA levels were significantly higher in the PTBD group compared to the ERBD group.Both tumorsphere formation and xenograft tumor growth were reduced by Nanog knockdown in three cases of the PTBD group,indicating the important roles of Nanog in tumorigenicity of PTBD group tumor cells.The half-life of Nanog mRNA was longer in PTBD group cells than in ERBD group cells,suggesting potential post-transcriptional regu-lation on Nanog mRNA.The Nanog m6A level was higher in PTBD group tumor cells compared to the ERBD group.Analysis of methyltransferases and demethylases,ALKBH5(α-ketoglutarate dependent dioxygenase alkb family homolog 5)mRNA levels were lower in the PTBD group than in the ERBD group and significantly correlated with the m6A level of Nanog.ALKBH5 knockdown led to an increase in the m6A level of Nanog,while ALKBH5 overexpression decreased the m6A level of Nanog.Dual-luciferase activity assays demonstrated that ALKBH5 knockdown significantly enhanced luciferase activity,whereas ALKBH5 overexpression reduced it.Further studies confirmed that ALKBH5 knockdown upregulated both the mRNA and protein levels of Nanog,whereas overexpressing ALKBH5 downregulated them.ALKBH5 mediated the demethylation modification of Nanog mRNA,and the lower levels of ALKBH5 expression in the PTBD group promoted Nanog's m6A modification.Overexpressing ALKBH5 decreased tumorsphere growth,while ALKBH5 knockdown increased it,which was subsequently reduced by the simultaneous Nanog knockdown again.In sum,tumor cells in PTBD and ERBD drainage bile from hilar cholangiocar-cinoma patients exhibited tumorigenicity.Compared to the ERBD group,tumor cells in PTBD bile with lower ALKBH5 expression levels enhanced Nanog's m6A modification to upregulate Nanog expression levels,resulting in stronger tumorigenicity.These findings are significant for elucidating propensity to tumor implantation metastasis from PTBD drainage.

Objective:To compare the safety and efficacy of 3D-printed porous bioceramic artificial bone and artificial bone substitutes in the treatment of limb bone defects.Methods:A total of 220 patients with post-traumatic limb bone defects admitted to Xijing Hospital Affiliated to Air Force Medical University of the Chinese People's Liberation Army (34 cases), the Third Hospital of Hebei Medical University (60 cases), Xi'an Honghui Hospital (28 cases), the Third Hospital of Southern Medical University (18 cases), Changsha Third Hospital (28 cases), Foshan Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital (16 cases), Foshan Fuxing Chancheng Hospital (12 cases), and Henan Provincial Orthopaedic Hospital (24 cases) from May 2022 to October 2023 were included as research subjects. According to the manufacturing method of the bone graft material, the subjects were randomly divided into the 3D printed porous bioceramic artificial bone group (3D printing group) and the artificial bone substitute group (non-3D printing group) at a ratio of 1:1 by the envelope method. Adverse events that might be related to the surgery were selected through correlation evaluation and classified as abnormal laboratory indicators, systemic or other site symptoms and abnormalities, and local symptoms and abnormalities of the affected limb. The safety of the two groups was compared. The bone graft fusion rate, bone defect repair and healing rate, and short form 12 (SF-12) score of the two groups were calculated to evaluate the postoperative recovery.Results:Thirty-two cases were excluded (4 cases refused to use their data after reconsideration, 7 cases were not used after preoperative assessment, and 21 cases exceeded the standard for body mass index and laboratory indicators upon re-examination). A total of 188 cases were randomly divided into the 3D printing group and the non-3D printing group according to the random method, with 94 cases in each group. Among them, 11 cases in the 3D printing group and 9 cases in the non-3D printing group dropped out due to loss to follow-up. Finally, 168 cases completed the follow-up, including 83 cases in the 3D printing group and 85 cases in the non-3D printing group. In the 3D printing group, there were 53 males and 30 females, with an average age of 47.9±12.7 years; in the non-3D printing group, there were 53 males and 32 females, with an average age of 48.6±12.9 years. A total of 51 cases in the two groups experienced adverse events related to the surgery, including 13 cases of abnormal laboratory indicators (5 cases in the 3D printing group and 8 cases in the non-3D printing group), 15 cases of systemic or other site symptoms and abnormalities (9 cases in the 3D printing group and 6 cases in the non-3D printing group), and 23 cases of local symptoms and abnormalities of the affected limb (13 cases in the 3D printing group and 10 cases in the non-3D printing group). There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of adverse events between the two groups ( P>0.05). The bone graft fusion rates of the 3D printing group and the non-3D printing group at 6 months after surgery were 99%(82/83) and 99%(84/85), respectively, and the bone defect repair and healing rates were 89%(74/83) and 89%(76/85), respectively. At the time of 12 months after surgery, the bone graft fusion rates were 99%(82/83) and 99%(84/85), respectively, and the bone defect repair and healing rates were 94%(78/83) and 92%(78/85), respectively. There was no statistically significant difference in the bone graft fusion rate and bone defect repair and healing rate between the two groups ( P>0.05). The SF-12 scores during the screening period were 27.82±2.96 points and 27.22±4.23 points in the 3D printing group and the non-3D printing group, respectively, and at 3 months after surgery were 28.08±3.13 points and 27.64±3.16 points, at 6 months after surgery were 29.42±3.10 points and 28.55±3.45 points, and at 12 months after surgery were 29.78±2.80 points and 29.58±2.94 points, respectively. There was no statistically significant difference between the groups ( P>0.05). Both groups of surgeries were successfully completed without any serious surgical or bone graft-related complications. Conclusion:The safety and efficacy of 3D-printed porous bioceramic artificial bone in the treatment of limb bone defects are not significantly different from those of currently clinically applied artificial bone substitutes.

Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.
