Objective:
To fabricate a hydrogel loaded with inositol hexaphosphate-zinc and preliminarily evaluate its performance in self-mineralization and osteoinduction, thereby providing a theoretical basis for the development of bone regeneration materials.
Methods:
The hydrogel framework (designated DF0) was formed by copolymerizing methacryloyloxyethyltrimethylammonium chloride and four-armed poly(ethylene glycol) acrylate, followed by sequentially loading inositol hexaphosphate anions via electrostatic interaction and zinc ions via chelation. The hydrogel loaded only with inositol hexaphosphate anions was named DF1, while the co-loaded hydrogel was named DF2. The self-mineralization efficacy of the DF0 , DF1 and DF2 hydrogels was characterized using scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), and selected area electron diffraction (SAED). The biocompatibility was assessed via live/dead cell staining and a CCK-8 assay. The osteoinductive capacity of the DF0 , DF1 and DF2 hydrogels on MC3T3-E1 cells was assessed via alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and Alizarin Red S (ARS) staining. In the aforementioned cell experiments, cells cultured in standard medium served as the control group
Results:
The DF0, DF1, and DF2 hydrogels were successfully synthesized. Notably, DF1 and DF2 exhibited distinct self-mineralization within 6 days. Results from TEM, EDS, and SAED confirmed that the mineralization products were amorphous calcium phosphate in group DF1, and amorphous calciumzinc phosphate in group DF2. Biocompatibility tests revealed that none of the hydrogels (DF0, DF1, and DF2) adversely affected cell viability or proliferation. In osteogenic induction experiments, both ALP and ARS staining were intensified in the DF1 and DF2 groups, with the most profound staining observed in the DF2 group.
Conclusion
The developed inositol hexaphosphate-zinc hydrogel (DF2) demonstrates the dual capacity to generate calcium-phosphate compounds through self-mineralization while exhibiting excellent osteoinductive properties. This biocompatible, dual-promoting osteogenic hydrogel presents a novel strategy for bone regeneration.

Based on systematic review and consensus meetings of international multidisciplinary experts, the Transfusion and Anemia Expert Initiative—Control/Avoidance of Bleeding (TAXI-CAB) project team developed management strategies for platelet and plasma transfusion in critically ill children. This consensus presents five expert consensus statements and two recommendations addressing two key questions: 1) What Laboratory Tests and Physiologic Triggers Should Guide the Decision to Administer a Platelet or Plasma Transfusion in Critically ill Children? 2) What Product Attributes Are Optimal to Guide Specific Product Selection? This consensus provides guidance for decision-making regarding plasma and platelet transfusion in critically ill children in two aspects: relevant laboratory testing indicators and additional special properties of blood components. This article explains the rationale behind the recommendations in this part of the guideline, aiming to emphasize the need for clinicians to develop transfusion strategies based on multidimensional assessment, while calling for enhanced interdisciplinary collaboration and evidence-based research to optimize blood management in critically ill children, reducing the risk of over-transfusion and improving treatment outcomes. Furthermore, there remains an urgent need for further research to explore laboratory indicators associated with bleeding risk to guide transfusion therapy.

Resistance to poly adenosine diphosphate(ADP)-ribose polymerase inhibitor(PARPi)presents a considerable obstacle in the treatment of ovarian cancer.F-box and tryptophan-aspartic(WD)repeat domain containing 11(FBXW11)modulates the ubiquitination of growth-and invasion-related factors in lung cancer,colorectal cancer,and osteosarcoma.The function of FBXW11 in PARPi therapy is still ambiguous.In this study,RNA sequencing(RNA-seq)showed that FBXW11 expression was raised in ovarian cancer cells that had been treated with PARPi.FBXW11 was abnormally expressed at low levels in high-grade serous ovarian cancer(HGSOC)tissues,and low levels of FBXW11 were associated with shorter overall survival(OS)and progression-free survival(PFS)in HGSOC patients.Overexpressing FBXW11 made ovarian cancer more sensitive to PARPi,while knocking down FBXW11 made it less sensitive.The four-dimensional(4D)label-free quantitative proteomic analysis revealed that FBXW11 targeted S100 calcium binding protein A11(S100A11)and promoted its degradation through ubiquiti-nation.The increased degradation of S100A11 led to less efficient DNA damage repair,which in turn contributed to increased PARPi-induced DNA damage.The role of FBXW11 in promoting PARPi sensitivity was also confirmed in xenograft mouse models.In summary,our study confirms that FBXW11 promotes the susceptibility of ovarian cancer cells to PARPi via affecting S10OA11-mediated DNA damage repair.

ObjectiveTo investigate the heterogeneity and transcriptomic characteristics of T-cell subsets in the liver of mice with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) at the single-cell level using single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq), and to provide a reference for studying the mechanism of action of T cells in NASH. MethodsSix male C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into control group fed with regular diet and NASH group fed with methionine-choline-deficient (MCD) diet, with three mice in each group, and liver tissue was collected for scRNA-seq after 6 weeks of modeling. Specific differentially expressed genes were analyzed between T-cell subsets, and related analyses were performed, including dimension clustering, cell type annotation, t-distributed stochastic neighbor embedding (t-SNE), violin plot, gene ontology (GO) functional enrichment analysis, and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analysis. Immunofluorescent staining was used to observe the expression of the T cell marker Tcrα and the specific marker genes Tcf7 and Cxcr6 in the liver of mice in the two groups. The independent-samples t test was used for comparison of continuous data between two groups. ResultsTwo T cell subsets were identified in the liver of mice, and the percentage of cluster 6 decreased from 58.5% in the control group to 48.7% in the NASH group. The top four specific genes were Nsg2, Cd8b1, Cd8a, and Tcf7. Tcf7, a characteristic marker gene for cluster 6, was expressed in 65% of cells in cluster 6, and therefore, cluster 6 was defined as Tcf7+ T cells. The GO and KEGG enrichment analyses showed that the differentially expressed genes of cluster 6 were involved in T cell activation, leukocyte adhesion, binding ubiquitin-like protein ligase, and the signaling pathways for Th17, Th1, and Th2 cell differentiation. The percentage of cluster 7 increased from 41.5% in the control group to 51.3% in the NASH group. The top four specific genes of cluster 7 were Cd40lg, Tcrg-C1, Il2rα, and Cxcr6. Cxcr6 was expressed in 90% of cells in cluster 7, and therefore, cluster 7 was defined as Cxcr6+ T cells. The GO and KEGG enrichment analyses showed that cluster 7 was involved in T cell activation, cytokine production, the T cell receptor signaling pathway, and the Th17 cell differentiation and MAPK signaling pathway. Immunofluorescence assay showed that compared with the control group, the NASH group showed a significant reduction in the area with positive co-expression of Tcf7 protein and Tcrα protein (1.80%±0.67% vs 0.33%±0.13%, P<0.05) and a significant increase in the area with positive co-expression of Cxcr6 protein and Tcrα protein (0.50%±0.09% vs 2.66%± 0.33%, P<0.001). ConclusionThere is a reduction in the percentage of Tcf7+ T cells and an increase in the percentage of Cxcr6+ T cells in NASH mice, revealing the characteristics and differences of T cells in the liver of NASH mice.
