With the increasing incidence of lung cancer in the elderly, how to improve the quality and speed of postoperative recovery on the basis of ensuring the therapeutic effect has become an important issue in surgical management. The postoperative recovery process of elderly patients with lung cancer shows higher complexity and challenge due to their unique frailty, comorbidity burden and treatment response. This article will focus on the postoperative rehabilitation strategy, systematically sort out the physiological, pathological and treatment response characteristics of postoperative recovery in elderly patients with lung cancer, propose five postoperative rehabilitation intervention modules based on the enhanced recovery after surgery concept, and further integrate the three challenges of insufficient compliance, research heterogeneity and health economic barriers, and propose a breakthrough method with precise rehabilitation and digital management as the core, providing theoretical support and practical guidance for the optimization and implementation of postoperative rehabilitation programs for elderly patients with lung cancer.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of ginsenosides as P-glycoprotein(P-gp)substrates in combination with paclitaxel on the proliferation and migration of colon cancer Caco-2 cells.METHODS Bio-layer interferometry(BLI)technology was used to detect the constants of ginsenosides and P-gp.Network molecular docking was adopted to predict the binding affinity energy of ginsenosides and P-gp.Caco-2 cells were divided into paclitaxel 0,6.25,12.5,25,50,100 and 200 mg·L-1 groups,ginsenoside Rg3 0,6.25,12.5,25,50,100 and 200 mg·L-1 groups,and paclitaxel 5 mg·L-1+ginsenoside Rg3 0,25,50,100 and 200 mg·L-1 groups.After 48 h of incubation,the growth inhibition rate of Caco-2 cells was detected by MTT assay,and the interaction between the two drugs was quantitatively evaluated using the"one-belt,one-line"modle.Caco-2 cells were divided into the cell control group,paclitaxel 5 mg·L-1 group,ginsenoside Rg3 50 and 100 mg·L-1 groups,and paclitaxel 5 mg·L-1+ginsenoside Rg3 50 and 100 mg·L-1 groups.After 24 h of incubation,the proliferation and migration ability of the cells were detected by colony assay and Transwell migration assay.Caco-2 cells were then divided into the cell control group,quinidine 12.5 mg·L-1 group,and ginsenoside Rg3 6.25 and 12.5 mg·L-1 groups.After 4 h of incubation,the expression levels of P-gp and total protein were detected by ELISA.RESULTS The affinity constants of ginsenoside Rb1,Rg3,Rg5 with P-gp were all less than 10-3 mol·L-1,while that of ginsenoside CK with P-gp was 10-2 mol·L-1.There was no typical binding dissociation curve between ginsenoside Re and P-gp.The absolute binding affinities of ginsenosides Rg3 and Rg5 to P-gp were determined to be 8.5 kcal·mol-1 and 7.6 kcal·mol-1,respectively.Ginsenosides mixed with PTX 5 mg·L-1 inhibited the growth of colon cancer cells through synergy and addition,and the dose range of the syner-gistic effect was[0+5,43.15+5]mg·L-1;[164.51+5,200+5]mg·L-1,the additive effect dose ranged from[43.15+5,164.51+5]mg·L-1.The combination of the two drugs could significantly reduce the proliferation and migration ability of Caco-2 cells(P<0.01).The ELISA results showed a decrease in total protein and P-gp content in both the ginsenoside and quinidine groups(P<0.05).CONCLUSION Ginsenoside bind to and inhibit the activity of P-gp,synergizing with paclitaxel to reduce the proliferative and migratory abili-ties of Caco-2 cells.The combination of ginsenosides and paclitaxel enhances the sensitivity of Caco-2 cells to paclitaxel induced inhibition.The combined use of these two substances is expected to achieve better anticancer effects compared to paclitaxel alone.

OBJECTIVE Epileptic networks are char-acterized as two states,seizures or more prolonged inter-ictal periods.However,cellular mechanisms underlying the contribution of interictal periods to ictal events remain unclear.METHODS Here,we present the procedure for labeling seizure-activated and interictal-activated neuro-nal ensembles in mouse hippocampal kindling model using an enhanced-synaptic-activity-responsive element.This technique is combined with genetically encoded effectors to characterize and manipulate neuronal ensembles recruited by focal seizures(FS-Ens)and interictal periods(IP-Ens)in piriform cortex,a region that plays a key role in seizure generation.RESULTS Ca2+ activities and histo-logical evidence reveal a disjointed correlation between the two ensembles during FS dynamics.Optogenetic acti-vation of FS-Ens promotes further seizure development,while IP-Ens protects against it.Interestingly,both ensem-bles are functionally involved in generalized seizures(GS)due to circuit rearrangement.IP-Ens bidirectionally modulates FS but not GS by controlling coherence with hippocampus.CONCLUSION This study indicates that the interictal state may represent a seizure-preventing environment,and the interictal-activated ensemble may serve as a potential therapeutic target for epilepsy.

OBJECTIVE Cognitive deficit is a com-mon comorbidity in temporal lobe epilepsy(TLE)and that is not well controlled by current therapeutics.Currently,how epileptic seizure affects cognitive performance remains largely unclear.The subiculum is the major out-put of the hippocampus,which projects to entorhinal cor-tex and other more distinct brain regions.Physiologically,the subiculum codes spatial working memory and naviga-tion information including place,speed,and trajectory.Importantly,prior studies have noted the importance of the subiculum in the beginning,spreading,and generaliz-ing process of hippocampal seizure.How seizure-activated neurons in subiculum participate in cognitive impairment remains largely elusive.METHODS In this study,we sought to label the subicular seizure-activated c-fos+ neu-rons with a special promoter with enhanced synaptic activity-responsive element E-SARE in the subiculum,combined with chemogenetics and designer receptors exclusively activated by designer drugs(DREADDs),Ca2+ fiber photometry approaches,and behavioral tasks,to reveal the role of these neurons in cognitive impairment in epilepsy.RESULTS We found that chemogenetic inhibi-tion of subicular seizure-tagged c-fos+ neurons(mainly CaMK Ⅱ α+ glutamatergic neurons)alleviates seizure generalization and improves cognitive performance in the hippocampal CA3 kindling TLE model.While inhibition of seizure-labeled c-fos+ GABAergic interneuron shows no effect on seizure and cognition.As a comparison,che-mogenetic inhibition of the whole subicular CaMK Ⅱ α+ neuron impairs cognitive function in na?ve mice in basal condition.Notably,inhibition of subicular seizure-tagged c-fos+ neurons enhances the recruitment of cognition-responsive c-fos+ neurons via increasing neural excitability during cognition tasks.CONCLUSION Our results dem-onstrate that subicular seizure-activated c-fos+ neurons contribute to cognitive impairment in TLE,suggesting sei-zure-tagged c-fos+ neurons as the potential therapeutic target to alleviate cognitive impairment in TLE.

Although several artificial nanotherapeutics have been approved for practical treatment of metastatic breast cancer, their inefficient therapeutic outcomes, serious adverse effects, and high cost of mass production remain crucial challenges. Herein, we developed an alternative strategy to specifically trigger apoptosis of breast tumors and inhibit their lung metastasis by using natural nanovehicles from tea flowers (TFENs). These nanovehicles had desirable particle sizes (131 nm), exosome-like morphology, and negative zeta potentials. Furthermore, TFENs were found to contain large amounts of polyphenols, flavonoids, functional proteins, and lipids. Cell experiments revealed that TFENs showed strong cytotoxicities against cancer cells due to the stimulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) amplification. The increased intracellular ROS amounts could not only trigger mitochondrial damage, but also arrest cell cycle, resulting in the in vitro anti-proliferation, anti-migration, and anti-invasion activities against breast cancer cells. Further mice investigations demonstrated that TFENs after intravenous (i.v.) injection or oral administration could accumulate in breast tumors and lung metastatic sites, inhibit the growth and metastasis of breast cancer, and modulate gut microbiota. This study brings new insights to the green production of natural exosome-like nanoplatform for the inhibition of breast cancer and its lung metastasis via i.v. and oral routes.
