OBJECTIVE To prepare the β -cyclodextrin （ β -CD） inclusion complex with volatile oil from Qianghuo qushi qingwen granules， and to characterize and quantitatively analyze the inclusion complex. METHODS The comprehensive scores calculated by inclusion rate and inclusion compound yield were used as indicators for screening the inclusion method. The single-factor experiments and Box-Behnken response surface experiments were used to op timize the inclusion conditions， with the above comprehensive score as response value， and taking the ratio of β -CD to volatile oil， inclusion temperature and inclusion time as indexes. The volatile oil inclusion complex of Qianghuo qushi qingwen granules was prepared according to the determined optimal process， followed by validation. Ultraviolet （UV）-visible spectroscopy， thin-layer chromatography （TLC）， and microscopic imaging were also performed. Ultra-high performance liquid chromatography was used to determine the contents of perillaldehyde， pogostone and atractylodin. RESULTS The saturation aqueous solution method was adopted. The optimal inclusion process conditions were as follows： the ratio of β -CD to volatile oil was 7.5∶1， the inclusion temperature was 40 ℃， and the inclusion time was 2.2 h. In three verification experiments， the average inclusion rate was 72.32%， the average yield of inclusion compound was 74.45%， the average comprehensive score was 72.96 points， and the relative error with the predicted value （74.15 points） of the model was 1.61%. UV-visible spectroscopy， TLC and microscopic imaging showed that β -CD and volatile oil successfully formed a new inclusion complex. The average contents of perillaldehyde， pogostone and atractylodin were 4.498 2， 0.814 9， 0.905 7 mg/g， respectively， with RSDs of 0.31%， 0.56% and 0.63% （ n ＝3）. CONCLUSIONS A stable and feasible preparation process of the volatile oil inclusion complex of Qianghuo qushi qingwen granules is successfully established.

ObjectiveTo investigate the ameliorative effects and related mechanisms of the Zuogui Jiangtang Shuxin prescription （ZJSP） on glucose and lipid metabolism disorders in MKR mice with diabetic cardiomyopathy （DCM）， with a focus on elucidating its regulatory role on the adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase （AMPK）/forkhead box protein O1 （FoxO1）/cluster of differentiation 36 （CD36） signaling pathway and lipid deposition. MethodsFifty 8-week-old male MKR mice were fed a high-fat diet for four weeks and then intraperitoneally injected with streptozotocin （STZ） while maintaining a high-fat diet to establish a DCM model. The mice were randomly divided into the model group， the low-dose（14.43 g·kg^-1）and high-dose（28.86 g·kg^-1） ZJSP groups， and the metformin group （0.25 g·kg^-1）， with age-matched FVB mice as a normal control group. Each group received intragastric administration of normal saline or corresponding concentrations of ZJSP at equal volumes. After four weeks， fasting blood glucose （FBG） and cardiac function were measured. Blood was collected from the eyeballs under anesthesia to detect fasting insulin （FINS） and blood lipid levels. Myocardial tissue morphology was observed by hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining， and lipid deposition in the heart was assessed using oil red O staining. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） was used to measure the mRNA expression levels of AMPK， FoxO1， and CD36 in myocardial tissues. Western blot was employed to detect the protein expression levels of AMPK， p-AMPK， FoxO1， p-FoxO1， and CD36. ResultsCompared with the control group， the model group showed significantly increased levels of FBG and FINS （P<0.01）， elevated levels of triglycerides （TG）， total cholesterol （TC）， and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol （LDL-C） （P<0.01）， and significantly decreased left ventricular ejection fraction （EF） and fractional shortening （FS） values （P<0.01）. HE staining revealed marked cardiomyocyte hypertrophy， disarray， and widened intercellular spaces in myocardial tissues. Oil Red O staining showed extensive red deposition areas and fine lipid droplet accumulation in the myocardial tissue. AMPK mRNA expression was decreased， while FoxO1 and CD36 mRNA expressions were significantly increased （P<0.01）. The p-AMPK/AMPK protein expression ratio in myocardial tissues was significantly reduced， while the p-FoxO1/FoxO1 protein expression ratio and CD36 protein expression levels were significantly increased （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， all treatment groups exhibited significantly reduced FBG （P<0.01）， decreased FINS and blood lipid levels （TG， TC， LDL-C） （P<0.05， P<0.01）， improved cardiac function （P<0.05）， noticeable amelioration of myocardial histopathological morphology and lipid deposition， increased AMPK mRNA expression （P<0.01）， with significantly downregulated FoxO1 and CD36 mRNA expressions （P<0.01）， elevated p-AMPK/AMPK protein expression levels in myocardial tissue （P<0.05）， significantly decreased p-FoxO1/FoxO1 ratios （P<0.01）， and downregulated CD36 protein expression levels （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionZJSP exerts a protective effect on the heart in type 2 DCM of MKR mice， and its mechanism may be associated with the regulation of the AMPK/FoxO1/CD36 signaling pathway.

Cancer remains a leading cause of global mortality, necessitating the development of advanced therapeutic strategies with enhanced efficacy and reduced systemic toxicity. Among promising bioactive agents, lactoferrin (LF)—a multifunctional iron-binding glycoprotein abundantly found in mammalian milk and exocrine secretions—has garnered significant interest for its potent and multifaceted anti-cancer properties. This review provides a comprehensive analysis of the current understanding of LF’s role in oncology, encompassing its structural biology, diverse mechanisms of action, and groundbreaking advancements in its application through nano-engineering. LF exerts anti-tumor effects through multiple pathways, including extracellular action, intracellular action, and immune regulation. It demonstrates a remarkable affinity for cancer cell membranes, binding to overexpressed anionic components such as glycosaminoglycans and sialic acids, as well as to specific receptors including the low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein-1 (LRP-1). This selective binding facilitates targeted uptake. Upon internalization, LF orchestrates a direct assault by inducing cell-cycle arrest in phases such as G0/G1 or S phase through the modulation of key regulators including cyclins, CDKs, and p53. Furthermore, it promotes programmed cell death via apoptotic pathways, involving caspase activation and downregulation of anti-apoptotic proteins such as survivin. A more recently elucidated mechanism is the induction of ferroptosis, an iron-dependent form of cell death characterized by overwhelming lipid peroxidation. Beyond direct cytotoxicity, LF acts as a potent immunomodulator. It enhances natural killer (NK) cell activity, modulates T-lymphocyte populations, and crucially reprograms tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) from a pro-tumor M2 state to an anti-tumor M1 state, thereby reversing the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME). The translation of LF’s potential has been significantly accelerated by nanotechnology. The inherent biocompatibility and natural tumor-targeting capabilities of LF make it an ideal platform for sophisticated drug-delivery systems. This review details various fabrication strategies for LF-based nanoparticles (NPs), including self-assembly, sol-in-oil emulsion, and electrostatic nanocomplexes, among others. Research demonstrates that nano-formulations not only protect LF from degradation but also enhance its bioactivity and anti-cancer potency. More importantly, LF NPs serve as versatile carriers for a wide array of therapeutic agents, including conventional chemotherapeutics, natural compounds, and imaging agents. These engineered systems enable synergistic therapy and facilitate site-specific delivery. Notably, the ability of LF to bind to receptors on the blood-brain barrier (BBB) has been leveraged to develop nano-systems for glioblastoma treatment. Other innovative designs utilize LF to modulate the TME—for instance, by alleviating tumor hypoxia to sensitize cells to radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Despite compelling pre-clinical evidence, the clinical translation of LF and its nano-formulations remains nascent. While early-phase trials have established a favorable safety profile for recombinant human LF, larger Phase III studies have yielded mixed results, underscoring the complexity of its action in humans. Key challenges include enhancing drug targeting, optimizing loading efficiency, ensuring batch-to-batch reproducibility, and achieving deep tumor penetration. Future research must focus on the rational design of next-generation LF-NPs. This entails developing standardized manufacturing protocols, engineering “smart” stimuli-responsive systems for targeted drug release in the TME, and constructing multi-targeting platforms. A concerted interdisciplinary effort is paramount to bridge the gap between bench and bedside. In conclusion, LF, particularly in its nano-engineered forms, represents a highly promising and versatile agent in the oncological arsenal, holding immense potential for precise and effective cancer therapy.

OBJECTIVE To explore the influencing factors of Shenfukang capsule in the treatment of chronic kidney disease （CKD） and construct a nomogram prediction model for evaluating its therapeutic efficacy. METHODS CKD patients who were hospitalized from July 2019 to August 2022 in the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University and treated with Shenfukang capsule were selected as study subjects. Clinical data of the patients were collected from the hospital’s electronic medical record system， and they were divided into an effective group and an ineffective group based on treatment outcomes. Lasso-Logistic multivariate regression analysis was used to screen the influencing factors of the efficacy of Shenfukang capsule. Using the effectiveness of Shenfukang capsule treatment as the prediction outcome and the screened influencing factors as predictor variables， a nomogram prediction model was constructed using R software. All patients were randomly divided into a training cohort and a validation cohort. The discriminative ability， calibration， and clinical net benefit of the model were evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic （ROC） curve， calibration curve， and decision curve analysis， respectively. RESULTS Lasso-Logistic regression analysis revealed that concurrent diabetes mellitus， decreased levels of blood urea nitrogen， triglycerides， and serum phosphorus， as well as prolonged prothrombin time and elevated apolipoprotein AⅠ levels， were influencing factors for reduced efficacy of Shenfukang capsule in CKD treatment. The evaluation results of the nomogram prediction model showed that the area under curve values were 0.745 and 0.797 in the training and validation cohorts， respectively， which were close and both exceeded 0.70， indicating stable predictive performance. The calibration curves demonstrated good agreement in both datasets， suggesting satisfactory calibration performance. The clinical decision curves were positioned above the two extreme reference lines， indicating high clinical benefit of the model. CONCLUSIONS Diabetes mellitus， blood urea nitrogen， triglycerides， apolipoprotein AⅠ， serum phosphorus， and prothrombin time were factors associated with the efficacy of Shenfukang capsule in CKD patients. The nomogram prediction model established in this study may provide a basis for rational clinical application of Shenfukang capsule and for improving its therapeutic efficacy in CKD.

OBJECTIVE To study the extraction process of Hongqijin granules with the standard decoction of Hongqijin formula as the reference. METHODS Fifteen batches of Hongqijin formula standard decoction were prepared. The reference characteristic chromatogram was established， and the chromatographic similarity was calculated. The average extraction yield and average transfer rates of calycosin-7-glucoside， salidroside， curcumin， and emodin of the 15 batches of standard decoction were determined. Taking soaking time， water addition amount， and decoction time as influencing factors， and extraction yield， transfer rates of marker components， as well as chromatographic similarity with the reference characteristic chromatogram as evaluation indexes， orthogonal test combined with principal component analysis was adopted to optimize the extraction process of Hongqijin granules， followed by process verification. RESULTS The average extraction yield of 15 batches of Hongqijin formula standard decoction was 32.55%. The average transfer rates of calycosin-7-glucoside， salidroside， curcumin， and emodin were 70.68%， 74.35%， 2.16%， and 4.62%， respectively. The optimal extraction process of Hongqijin granules was confirmed as follows： extraction was carried out twice； the first extraction used 8-fold water for 60 min， and the second extraction adopted 6.5-fold water for 45 min. In three validation tests， the average extraction yield was 33.01%. The average transfer rates of the four marker components were 79.51%， 75.54%， 1.84%， and 4.30%， with all RSD values less than 2%. The chromatographic similarities between the extracting solution and reference characteristic chromatogram were all higher than 0.990. CONCLUSIONS The optimized extraction process of Hongqijin granules exhibits good stability， and the material basis of the extracting solution is consistent with that of Hongqijin formula standard decoction.

The innate immune system can be boosted in response to subsequent triggers by pre-exposure to microbes or microbial products, known as “trained immunity”. Compared to classical immune memory, innate trained immunity has several different features. Firstly, the molecules involved in trained immunity differ from those involved in classical immune memory. Innate trained immunity mainly involves innate immune cells (e.g., myeloid immune cells, natural killer cells, innate lymphoid cells) and their effector molecules (e.g., pattern recognition receptor (PRR), various cytokines), as well as some kinds of non-immune cells (e.g., microglial cells). Secondly, the increased responsiveness to secondary stimuli during innate trained immunity is not specific to a particular pathogen, but influences epigenetic reprogramming in the cell through signaling pathways, leading to the sustained changes in genes transcriptional process, which ultimately affects cellular physiology without permanent genetic changes (e.g., mutations or recombination). Finally, innate trained immunity relies on an altered functional state of innate immune cells that could persist for weeks to months after initial stimulus removal. An appropriate inducer could induce trained immunity in innate lymphocytes, such as exogenous stimulants (including vaccines) and endogenous stimulants, which was firstly discovered in bone marrow derived immune cells. However, mature bone marrow derived immune cells are short-lived cells, that may not be able to transmit memory phenotypes to their offspring and provide long-term protection. Therefore, trained immunity is more likely to be relied on long-lived cells, such as epithelial stem cells, mesenchymal stromal cells and non-immune cells such as fibroblasts. Epigenetic reprogramming is one of the key molecular mechanisms that induces trained immunity, including DNA modifications, non-coding RNAs, histone modifications and chromatin remodeling. In addition to epigenetic reprogramming, different cellular metabolic pathways are involved in the regulation of innate trained immunity, including aerobic glycolysis, glutamine catabolism, cholesterol metabolism and fatty acid synthesis, through a series of intracellular cascade responses triggered by the recognition of PRR specific ligands. In the view of evolutionary, trained immunity is beneficial in enhancing protection against secondary infections with an induction in the evolutionary protective process against infections. Therefore, innate trained immunity plays an important role in therapy against diseases such as tumors and infections, which has signature therapeutic effects in these diseases. In organ transplantation, trained immunity has been associated with acute rejection, which prolongs the survival of allografts. However, trained immunity is not always protective but pathological in some cases, and dysregulated trained immunity contributes to the development of inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. Trained immunity provides a novel form of immune memory, but when inappropriately activated, may lead to an attack on tissues, causing autoinflammation. In autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and atherosclerosis, trained immunity may lead to enhance inflammation and tissue lesion in diseased regions. In Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease, trained immunity may lead to over-activation of microglial cells, triggering neuroinflammation even nerve injury. This paper summarizes the basis and mechanisms of innate trained immunity, including the different cell types involved, the impacts on diseases and the effects as a therapeutic strategy to provide novel ideas for different diseases.
