ObjectiveTo investigate the role of Ras-GTPase-activating protein SH3 domain-binding protein 2 （G3BP2） in regulating the activation， proliferation， and migration of hepatic stellate cells （HSCs）. MethodsThe mouse HSCs （JS-1 cell line） were treated with 5 μg/L transforming growth factor-beta 1（TGF-β1） for 24 hours to establish an HSC activation and proliferation model. A G3BP2 knockdown system was constructed using siRNA interference technology. The experiment was divided into four groups： Control， TGF-β1 treatment， TGF-β1+si-NC， and TGF-β1+ G3BP2-siRNA. The expression levels of key fibrosis indicators， including type I collagen （Collagen I）， α-smooth muscle actin （α-SMA）， and G3BP2， were detected by Western blot and RT-qPCR. Cell proliferation activity was assessed using the CCK-8 proliferation assay kit and EdU fluorescence labeling technology. Cell migration ability was analyzed by scratch wound healing assay and Transwell migration assay. The formation level of stress granules was quantified by immunofluorescence microscopy to investigate the effects of G3BP2 on stress granule formation in activated HSCs. ResultsStimulation with TGF-β1 upregulated the expression of G3BP2 in JS-1 cells （RT-qPCR： P0.000 1； Western blot： P0.000 1）， while a downward trend in its expression was observed in the G3BP2‑silenced group （RT-qPCR： P0.01； Western blot： P0.000 1）. Compared with the control group， the TGF-β1 group exhibited increased protein expression levels of α-SMA and Collagen I （RT-qPCR： both P0.01； Western blot： P0.01 and P0.05， respectively）， concomitant with an increased number of stress granules and enhanced cell proliferation and migration capacity （all P0.001）. The experimental results demonstrated that G3BP2 knockout effectively reversed the aforementioned phenotypes， with the G3BP2-silenced group showing reduced expression of fibrotic markers （all P0.01）， decreased stress granule formation （P0.01）， and reduced cell proliferation and migration capacity （all P0.05）， compared to the negative control group. ConclusionG3BP2 enhances the activation， proliferation， and migration of HSCs by promoting the formation of stress granules， thereby accelerating the pathological progression of liver fibrosis. This suggests that stress granules may serve as important regulators in controlling the activation， proliferation， and migration of HSCs.

Objective To explore the callsal association between intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy(ICP)and offspring attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder(ADHD)and Tourette's syndrome(TS)and its potential mechanisms.Methods Genome wide association study(GWAS)in public datasets was used to extract data.Among them,exposure was ICP(n=123 579),which stems from FinnGen dataset.Outcome was defined as ADHD,TS and other tic disorders(n=23 918),which is extracted from GWAS Catalog.Among mediators,total cholesterol in high-density lipoprotein(TC in HDL)were from the genetic map of the human plasma proteinome(n=21 558),and Obg-like ATPase 1 was from whole-genome study of circulating metabolites(n=3 301).In this study,we chose instrumental variables(IVs)that meets the Mendelian randomization(MR)hypothesis.When using two-sample MR,inverse variance weighted(IVW)was adopted as the primary method,and MR-Egger regression,weighted median,weighted mode,and simple mode were also utilized to analyse the robustness.Cochran's Q test,MR-Egger intercept test and leave-one-out sensitivity analysis were performed to verify the reliability.Significant threshold was set up as P<0.05.When using two-step MR,the first step is two-sample MR from exposure to mediator,and the second step is multivariable MR(MVMR),which is from mediator to outcome.At this time,conditional F-statistic was adopted to test the strength of IVs.At last,product distribution test was applied to determine the significance of mediation effects.Results ICP was significantly related to ADHD and TS as well as other tic disorders in offspring(IVW:OR=1.003,95%CI:1.000～1.006,P=0.035),and sensitivity analysis verified the robustness of the results.The potential positive mediators included TC in HDL[total effect(TE)=2.855×10-3;mediated effect(ME)=8.628×10-4;mediated proportion(MP)=30.217%,95%CI:0.878%～73.954%],and Obg-like ATPase 1(TE=2.855×10-3;ME=1.216×10-3;MP=42.572%,95%CI:6.356%～90.195%).Conclusion ICP is possible to elevate the incidence rate of ADHD and TS and other tic disorders via reducing TC in HDL and Obg-like ATPase 1.

Objective To compare the changes in biological indicators of human corneal epithe-lial(HCET)cells and rabbit corneas after exposure to different doses of ultraviolet B(UVB)radia-tion,so as to evaluate the impact of UVB radiation on corneal injury effects.Methods In cell exper-iment,HCET cells were divided into groups with radiation doses of 0,6,12,18,and 24 mJ/cm2.The effect of UVB radiation on HCET cell viability was detected using the CCK-8 assay,and the level of intracellular DNA damage was assessed by immunofluorescence.In the animal experiment,15 healthy New Zealand white rabbits(30 eyes)were randomly divided into groups with radiation doses of 0,1.35,2.16,4.32,and 6.48 J/cm2.The UVB exposure time for the radiation groups was 30 minutes per day for 3 consecutive days.Corneal injury was evaluated using methods such as slit-lamp microscopy,sodium fluorescein staining,central corneal thickness measurement,optical coherence tomography(OCT)imaging,and hematoxylin and eosin(HE)staining.Results Compared with the control group,cell viability in the radiation groups gradually decreased,and the level of DNA damage gradually increased with increasing radiation dose.As the radiation dose increased in the radiation groups,the degree of corneal opacity in rabbits gradually worsened,the central corneal area gradu-ally thickened,and OCT revealed high-intensity scattered light signals with the formation of shadow areas.Results from HE staining,immunohistochemistry,Western blot(WB),and sodium fluores-cein staining showed that the 1.35 J/cm2 group caused mild corneal injury,with damage reaching the corneal epithelial layer.In the 2.16 J/cm2 group,the corneal injury presented as dense punctate distribution,with damage extending from the epithelial layer to the superficial stroma.The number of ephrin type-A receptor 2(EphA2)protein-stained cells was relatively small,and the staining was light,showing a weak positive result.In the 4.32 J/cm2 and 6.48 J/cm2 groups,the corneal injury was irreversible,with damage gradually progressing from the corneal epithelial layer and superficial stroma to the endothelial layer.The number of EphA2 protein-stained cells was relatively large,and the staining was dark,showing a strong positive result.Conclusion This study comprehensively e-valuates the dose-dependent injury effects of UVB on HCET cells and New Zealand white rabbit cor-neas through cell and animal experiments.It elucidates that UVB radiation could induce corneal cell DNA damage,promote inflammatory responses,and trigger apoptosis by upregulating γ-phosphoryla-ted histone H2AX(γH2AX)and EphA2.The self-repair ability and process of corneal injury are preliminarily explored,providing a basis for further research on mechanisms of corneal injury caused by ultraviolet radiation and the development of protective drugs.

High intensity ultraviolet radiation exists in special military operation environments such as oceans,plateaus,polar regions and deserts,which is a leading contributor to eye damage and can lead to luminous keratitis,dry eyes,pterygium,cataract and macular degeneration.Ultraviolet radiation can cause acute and chronic injury to eyes by inducing DNA damage,oxidative stress and inflammatory reaction.The commonly used clinical drugs have played a role in relieving symptoms and promoting the repair of ocular tissues,but there are still limitations.The research on targeted therapeutic drugs,proteins and their derived peptides,vitamins and their coenzymes,as well as natural active ingredients of animals and plants has provided new ideas for the development of more effective drugs that can protect eyes from ultraviolet and for medical support to China's army in special environments.Based on the literature currently available,this paper reviews the eye injury caused by ultraviolet radiation and therapeutic drugs in terms of types of eye diseases,injury mechanisms,treatment strategies and drug development.

At present,the main reason for the lagging development of emotional disease theory and the backward development of targeted drugs is the lack of suitable and effective animal models,and model evaluation is the key and difficult point in the preparation of emotional disease animal models.The theory of syndrome element differentiation in traditional Chinese medicine is closely matched with the theory of behavioral elements in animal behavior,which is expected to bring theoretical changes and methodological progress in related fields.Based on this background,this paper systematically sorted out and clarified the theoretical conception of animal model e-valuation of emotional diseases:guided by the thinking mode of syndrome differentiation theory of TCM,an attempt was made to estab-lish a complete model evaluation system.It also pointed out the realization path of animal model evaluation of emotional disease based on syndrome element differentiation theory:collection of behavioral elements in natural state and analysis of time sequence,phenotypic identification of abnormal behaviors under stress state,and equivalent transformation of model animal syndrome discrimination.

The microbial limit standards in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia 2020 edition primarily focus on total aerobic microbial count and specified objectionable microorganisms,which are insufficient for comprehensively assessing the potential risks posed by microbial contamination to drug efficacy and patient safety.With the increasing com-plexity of rising regulatory requirements,there is an urgent need to establish a scientific and systematic microbial risk assessment and control framework.In response,the Chinese Pharmacopoeia 2025 edition,introduces a new general guideline 9212 Risk Assessment and Control of Unacceptable Microorganisms for Non-sterile Products.This chapter systematically constructs a framework for the identification and control of risks associated with unacceptable microorganisms,filling a gap in the relevant field within international pharmacopoeias.This article systematically elaborates on its key elements based on its core framework and content.It covers the development background,core concepts,testing and identification strategies,evaluation of risk characterization factors,formulation of risk control measures,and implementation pathways.The aim is to provide pharmaceutical enterprises and regulatory agencies with systematic and clear practical guidance.

Whole Genome Sequencing(WGS)technology,leveraging its significant advantages in precise microbial identification and traceability analysis,has become a core tool in international pharmaceutical microbial quality control.The release and implementation of the Guideline 9110 for Microbial Whole Genome Sequencing Technology in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia 2025 Edition marks the official entry of China's pharmaceutical microbial quality con-trol into the genomic era.Guideline 9110 establishes universal technical specifications for the application of WGS technology in pharmaceutical microbial quality control,covering laboratory general requirements,key technical parameters,technical workflow,major factors affecting sequencing results,method validation,and application guidance.This article focuses on the background of the standard's development and its technical rationale,provi-ding a systematic interpretation of key technical indicators,the scope of application,and essential points for techni-cal implementation.It aims to offer theoretical guidance and practical references for the industry in applying WGS technology.

OBJECTIVES: Depression is a common negative emotion that can significantly impact physical and mental health. Due to their occupational characteristics, medical staff are more susceptible to depression compared to the general population. This study aims to explore the influence of future-oriented coping on depression among medical staff and the mediating roles of psychological resilience and perceived stress, providing theoretical guidance for depression intervention strategies in this group. METHODS: A cross-sectional survey was conducted among medical staff at a tertiary hospital using convenience sampling. Data were collected via the "Wenjuanxing" platform. A total of 754 questionnaires were distributed; after excluding invalid responses (e.g., duplicate IPs or insufficient completion time), 655 valid questionnaires were retained (valid response rate: 86.87%). Instruments included a demographic questionnaire, the Future-Oriented Coping Scale, the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale, the Perceived Stress Scale, and the Self-Rating Depression Scale. All scales demonstrated high internal consistency (Cronbach's α>0.88) and validity. SPSS 27.0 was used for descriptive analysis, and PROCESS macro (Model 6) was used to test the chain mediation model. Harman's one-factor test was applied to control for common method bias. RESULTS: Descriptive analyses showed that future-oriented coping was positively correlated with psychological resilience and negatively correlated with perceived stress and depression. Mediation analysis revealed that future-oriented coping significantly predicted lower depression levels among medical staff (β=-0.283, P<0.001). Psychological resilience partially mediated the relationship (effect size=-0.329, accounting for 34.13% of the total effect), as did perceived stress (effect size=-0.099, 10.27%). A significant chain mediation path was identified: "future-oriented coping → psychological resilience → perceived stress → depression" (effect size=-0.253, 26.24%). The total indirect effect accounted for 70.64% of the overall effect, highlighting the substantial role of the mediating pathways. CONCLUSIONS Future-oriented coping can reduce depressive symptoms in medical staff, with psychological resilience and perceived stress serving as key mediators in a chain structure. These findings suggest that enhancing future-oriented coping strategies and psychological resilience may improve stress adaptation and reduce depression levels in this population.
