Asthma and cough variant asthma （CVA） are both chronic heterogeneous diseases characterized by airway microenvironment homeostasis disruption as their core pathological basis. In recent years， micro ribonucleic acid （miRNA）， as core post-transcriptional regulators， have been shown to finely modulate multiple critical signaling pathways， including Janus kinase/signal transducer and activator of transcription （JAK/STAT）， nuclear factor-κB （NF-κB）， transforming growth factor-β/Smad （TGF-β/Smad）， and phosphoinositide 3-kinase/protein kinase B （PI3K/Akt）， as well as various pathological processes such as airway epithelial barrier restoration， type 1 helper T cell（Th1）/Th2 immune balance， M1/M2 macrophage polarization， airway smooth muscle cell function， and airway hyperresponsiveness. miRNAs play a pivotal role in maintaining and disrupting airway microenvironment homeostasis. Based on recent Chinese and international literature， a logical framework centered on "airway microenvironment homeostasis disruption， miRNA regulation， and microenvironment restoration" was constructed. From the perspective of the airway microenvironment， the therapeutic roles of miRNA in asthma and CVA were systematically summarized， and the cascade regulatory mechanisms of miRNA throughout the entire disease course were elucidated. The hub miRNA was identified， and research progress on traditional Chinese medicine intervention strategies was explored. Furthermore， current clinical studies on RNA therapeutics and traditional Chinese medicine in achieving multi-target and multi-pathway integrated treatment by modulating miRNA were analyzed. The value of miRNA as biomarkers for diagnosis， phenotyping， and prognosis assessment， as well as the potential and application prospects of miRNA mimics and antagonists in precision therapy， were summarized， with the ultimate goal of advancing precision therapy for asthma and CVA.

Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a common mental disorder characterized by long-term low mood, anhedonia, and may even lead to suicidal behavior. The development and progression of MDD involves a range of pathological alterations in the central nervous system, including dysfunction of synaptic transmission, hyper-activation of neuroinflammation, and diminished neurogenesis. The transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) channel is highly expressed in brain regions associated with depression, and can regulate physiological activities such as neuroinflammation, neurogenesis, and synaptic transmission efficacy. Hence, the TRPV1 channel should be implicated in the pathogenesis of depression and be considered as a promising candidate for antidepressant treatment. This paper provides an overview of the structure and function of TRPV1 channel, with a focus on elucidating the potential mechanism of action of TRPV1 channel in depression, and explores its research trajectory and development prospects in the context of depression therapy.

Objective:To identify circulating proteins associated with cardiovascular, renal, and cardiorenal comorbidity events in individuals with metabolic syndrome, to construct a predictive model incorporating these proteins to improve prediction accuracy and to investigate their mediating effects on the interplay between cardiovascular and renal diseases.Methods:Data from the UK Biobank cohort were utilized. Cox proportional hazards models were applied to identify circulating proteins associated with various outcomes, followed by time-truncated sensitivity analyses. A predictive model incorporating protein scores was then developed using the LightGBM algorithm and compared with other models. Gene Ontology(GO) functional enrichment analysis was performed to explore the biological pathways of the identified proteins. Finally, mediation effect analysis was conducted to assess the role of circulating proteins in cardiorenal interactions. Results:The Cox analysis identified 180, 275, and 322 circulating proteins associated with cardiovascular events, renal events, and cardiorenal comorbidity events, respectively. Incorporating protein scores significantly improved model performance; the areas under the curve(AUC) for cardiovascular, renal, and cardiorenal events were 0.833, 0.907, and 0.890, respectively. GO functional enrichment analysis demonstrated significant enrichment in pathways such as cytokine activity(GO: 0005125), glycosaminoglycan binding(GO: 0005539), and humoral immune response(GO: 0006959) among all outcome-related proteins. Notably, EDA2R, GDF15, and WFDC2 exhibited significant mediating effects, each with mediation proportions exceeding 10%. Conclusions:A predictive model incorporating circulating protein scores can substantially improve prediction accuracy for cardiovascular and renal outcomes in individuls with metabolic syndrome.

Henoch-Sch?nlein purpura(HSP)is a common vascular inflammatory disease in children,which is easy to recur and seriously affects the physical and mental health of children.Based on the cold climate and the characteristics of children's constitutions,Professor Wang Youpeng proposes that the pathogenesis is based on the invasion of external pathogens,and spleen deficiency and loss of circulation,yin-yang imbalance,and defensive qi instability are the key points of the pathogenesis.Professor Wang establishes the characteristic therapy of"three clear and one tonic",which includes the elimination and discharge method to clear dampness and heat,the dual solution method of external and internal to clear excessive heat,the method of cooling blood and dissipating blood stasis to clear stasis spots,and the method of strengthening the body and consolidating the essence to tonify deficiency.This therapy is based on"combining prescriptions to increase efficacy"and takes into account both deficiency in root and excess in superficiality.It not only focuses on the excessive syndromes of heat,blood stasis and dampness in the acute stage,but also focuses on the deficiency of healthy qi in the remission stage,which can provide references for the syndrome differentiation and treatment for HSP in children in cold regions.

Depressive disorder is a kind of mental disorder characterized by persistent and significant depressed mood, with complex etiology and high recurrence rate. At present, more precise and effective diagnostic and therapeutic approaches are still required. Increasing evidence suggests that hypoxia inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) and related pathways are involved in regulating the development and recovery of depression. HIF-1 enhances neuroplasticity, mitigates neuroinflammatory responses, alleviates oxidative stress, and modulates brain energy metabolism by influencing specific molecules associated with depression. This paper reviews pertinent domestic and international studies, examine the potential mechanisms of HIF-1 in the pathogenesis and progression of depression, and explore antidepressant treatment strategies targeting the HIF-1 signaling pathway. This article provides novel insights into elucidating the pathogenesis of depression and developing innovative therapeutic approaches.
