OBJECTIVE To investigate the apoptosis-inducing effect of esculetin （Esc） on acute myeloid leukemia （AML） HL-60 cells by regulating the protein kinase B （AKT）/S-phase kinase-associated protein 2 （SKP2）/MutT homolog 1 （MTH1） pathway. METHODS AML HL-60 cells were randomly divided into control group （routine culture）， Esc low-concentration group （L-Esc group， 25 μmol/L Esc）， Esc medium-concentration group （M-Esc group， 50 μmol/L Esc）， Esc high-concentration group （H-Esc group， 100 μmol/L Esc）， and high-concentration of Esc+ SC79 （AKT agonist） group （100 μmol/L Esc+5 μmol/L SC79）. Cell proliferation in each group was detected by MTT assay and colony formation assay. The level of reactive oxygen species （ROS） in cells was measured by using the CM-H2DCFDA fluorescent probe. Cell apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry. Western blot assay was performed to detect the expression levels of apoptosis-related proteins [B-cell lymphoma 2 （Bcl-2）， Bcl-2-associated X protein （Bax）， cleaved caspase-3]， AKT/SKP2/MTH1 pathway-related proteins （p-AKT， AKT， SKP2， MTH1）， along with the upstream and downstream proteins of AKT phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase （PI3K）， cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 1 （P21） and cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 1B （P27）. RESULTS Compared with control group， the cell viability， colony number， and the phosphorylation levels of AKT and PI3K proteins as well as protein expressions of SKP2， MTH1 and Bcl-2 were significantly decreased （P＜0.05）， while ROS level， apoptosis rate， and the expression levels of Bax， cleaved caspase-3， P21 and P27 proteins were significantly increased （P＜0.05）. Moreover， the effects of Esc exhibited concentration-dependence （P＜0.05）. Compared with H-Esc group， above indexes of high-concentration of Esc+ SC79 group were reversed significantly （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Esc may promote massive ROS production and induce activation of apoptosis in HL-60 cells by inhibiting the AKT/SKP2/MTH1 pathway， thus inhibiting the proliferation of HL-60 cells.

ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanism by which the Zishen Huoxue prescription （ZSHXP） ameliorates cognitive dysfunction in rats with vascular dementia （VD） induced by the bilateral common carotid artery ligation （2-VO model rats） through regulating the glucose-regulated protein 78 （GRP78）/protein kinase R-like endoplasmic reticulum kinase （PERK）/activating transcription factor 4 （ATF4） signaling pathway. MethodsA VD rat model was established via the 2-VO method. A total of 72 male Sprague-Dawley （SD） rats were randomly divided into six groups： Sham group， Model group， donepezil hydrochloride group （0.45 mg·kg^-1）， and ZSHXP groups at low （8.90 g·kg^-1）， medium （17.80 g·kg^-1）， and high （35.60 g·kg^-1） doses，with 12 rats in each group. The Morris Water Maze test was utilized to assess spatial learning and memory abilities of rats， and the Novel Object Recognition test was used to evaluate cognitive performance. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） and Nissl staining were applied to observe the histological and morphological changes in hippocampal tissues. Transmission electron microscopy （TEM） was used to observe the morphological changes of endoplasmic reticulum in rat hippocampal neurons. Immunofluorescence staining was adopted to detect the colocalization of neuronal nuclei antigen （NeuN） with GRP78 and βⅢ Tubulin with gasdermin D （GSDMD） in hippocampal neurons. Western blot was used to detect the expression levels of endoplasmic reticulum stress （ERS）-related proteins including GRP78， PERK， ATF4， phosphorylated protein kinase R-like endoplasmic reticulum kinase （p-PERK）， C/EBP homologous protein （CHOP）， NOD-like receptor protein 3 （NLRP3）， Caspase-1 and GSDMD. ResultsCompared with the sham operation group， the model group showed a significantly prolonged escape latency （P<0.01）， a significant decrease in the number of platform crossings and the residence time in the target quadrant （P<0.01）， and a markedly reduced recognition index （P<0.01）. Histological observations revealed that the hippocampal neurons in the model group were disorderly arranged with reduced quantity， deformed and shrunken cell bodies， and pyknotic and hyperchromatic nuclei. The number of Nissl bodies decreased significantly. The number of endoplasmic reticula reduced obviously， accompanied by abnormal dilation and swelling， and the loss of normal folding structure. The fluorescence colocalization of NeuN with GRP78 and βⅢ Tubulin with GSDMD in the hippocampus was significantly increased in the model group. The protein expression levels of GRP78， p-PERK/PERK， ATF4， CHOP， NLRP3， GSDMD and Caspase-1 in the model group were significantly elevated （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the donepezil hydrochloride group and the ZSHXP medium- and high-dose groups had a significantly shortened escape latency （P<0.01） and an increased number of platform crossings （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The residence time in the target quadrant was increased in the donepezil hydrochloride group and all ZSHXP groups （P<0.05， P<0.01）， with a significantly improved recognition index （P<0.01）. In the donepezil hydrochloride group and all ZSHXP groups， the number of hippocampal neurons increased with a more compact arrangement and reduced nuclear hyperchromasia. The number of Nissl bodies increased with morphological structures tending to be normal. In the ZSHXP high-dose group， the number of endoplasmic reticula increased and the folding structure was restored. The fluorescence colocalization of NeuN with GRP78 and βⅢ Tubulin with GSDMD in the hippocampus was significantly weakened in the treatment groups. In the donepezil hydrochloride group， the protein expressions of GRP78， ATF4 and CHOP were increased （P<0.01）， while the expression of p-PERK/PERK was decreased （P<0.05）. In the ZSHXP low-dose group， the expressions of GRP78， p-PERK/PERK and CHOP were elevated （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The ZSHXP medium- and high-dose groups showed a significant decrease in the protein expressions of p-PERK/PERK， ATF4 and CHOP （P<0.01）， and the high-dose group had a markedly reduced GRP78 protein expression （P<0.01）. In the donepezil hydrochloride group， the Caspase-1 protein expression was increased （P<0.01） and the NLRP3 protein expression was decreased （P<0.01）. In the ZSHXP low-dose group， the GSDMD expression was elevated （P<0.01） while the NLRP3 protein expression was reduced （P<0.01）. After treatment with medium and high doses of ZSHXP， the protein expression levels of NLRP3， GSDMD and Caspase-1 were significantly decreased （P<0.01）. ConclusionThe ameliorative effect of ZSHXP on cognitive function in 2-VO model rats may be associated with its regulation of the GRP78/PERK/ATF4 signaling pathway， which ameliorates ERS and inhibits neuronal pyroptosis.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of Gardeniae Fructus-Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma on ferroptosis in the rat model of myocardial infarction and further elucidate its role in myocardial remodeling. MethodsThe rat model of myocardial infarction was established by ligation of the left anterior descending coronary artery. The 50 successfully modeled rats were randomly divided into model group， ferroptosis inhibitor group （2 mg·kg^-1）， enalapril group （2.1 mg·kg^-1）， and low- and high-dose （4 g·kg^-1 and 8 g·kg^-1， respectively） Gardeniae Fructus-Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma， with 10 rats in each group. The rat model of myocardial infarction was established by ligation of the left anterior descending coronary artery. After 4 weeks of treatment， echocardiography was used to assess the cardiac structure and function. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining and Masson staining were employed to observe pathological morphology and fibrosis of the myocardial tissue. Serum levels of N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide （NT-proBNP）， transforming growth factor-β （TGF-β）， and myosin heavy chain-β （MHC-β） were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. Prussian blue staining was performed to detect myocardial iron deposition. The myocardial mitochondrial structure was observed by transmission electron microscopy. Levels of malondialdehyde （MDA） and glutathione （GSH） in the myocardial tissue were determined by lipid peroxidation assay kits. Immunofluorescence assay was conducted to observe the fluorescence intensity of nuclear factor E₂-related factor 2 （Nrf2） in the myocardial tissue. Western blot analysis was performed to evaluate the expression levels of proteins in the Nrf2/solute carrier family 7 member 11 （SLC7A11）/glutathione peroxidase 4 （GPX4） pathway. ResultsCompared with the sham group， the model group showed increased left ventricular end-diastolic diameter （LVEDD）， left ventricular end-systolic diameter （LVESD）， and serum levels of NT-proBNP， TGF-β， and MHC-β （P<0.01）， decreased left ventricular ejection fraction （LVEF） and left ventricular fractional shortening （LVFS） （P<0.01）， disarrangement of myocardial cells， inflammatory cell infiltration， severe myocardial fibrosis， increased myocardial iron deposition， and irregular mitochondrial morphology with vacuolation. Furthermore， the modeling led to increased MDA （P<0.01）， decreased GSH （P<0.01）， diminished Nrf2 fluorescence intensity in the myocardial tissue， and downregulated expression levels of Nrf2， SLC7A11， and GPX4 （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， Gardeniae Fructus-Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma reduced the LVEDD， LVESD， and serum levels of NT-proBNP， TGF-β， and MHC-β （P<0.05， P<0.01）， increased the LVEF and LVFS （P<0.05， P<0.01）， alleviated pathological changes such as myocardial cell disarrangement， inflammatory cell infiltration， myocardial fibrosis， and iron deposition， lowered the level of MDA （P<0.05， P<0.01）， raised the level of GSH （P<0.05， P<0.01）， improved the mitochondrial morphology and reduced vacuolation in the myocardial tissue， enhanced Nrf2 fluorescence intensity， and upregulated the expression levels of Nrf2， SLC7A11， and GPX4 （P<0.05， P<0.01） in the rat model of myocardial infarction. ConclusionGardeniae Fructus-Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma alleviates pathological damage and myocardial remodeling in the rat model of myocardial infarction by inhibiting ferroptosis， the mechanism of which is related to the activation of Nrf2/SLC7A11/GPX4 signaling pathway.

Colchicine, a classic anti-inflammatory agent, has been long used for the prevention and treatment of gouty arthritis and familial Mediterranean fever. Given the pivotal role of inflammation in the development and progression of cardiovascular diseases, the clinical value of colchicine in the secondary prevention of cardiovascular diseases has attracted significant attention. Diabetes mellitus （DM） leads to severe and irreversible vascular complications, and cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death in patients with DM. However, existing research indicated heterogeneity in the therapeutic efficacy of colchicine among patients with cardiovascular diseases and those with diabetes complicated by cardiovascular conditions. The heterogeneity manifests as differences in efficacy across various disease stages, patient baseline characteristics, specific cardiovascular event types, endpoint definitions, and treatment regimens. The current domestic and international research findings on colchicine in relation to cardiovascular events—both in patients with CVD and in those with diabetes—were reviewed, with the aim of elucidating the underlying causes of this efficacy heterogeneity and providing evidence-based guidance for identifying patients likely to benefit and optimizing individualized treatment strategies in clinical practice.

Objective To compare the benefits and drawbacks of primary patch expansion versus pericardial tube right ventricular-pulmonary artery connection in patients diagnosed with pulmonary atresia with ventricular septal defect (PA/VSD). Methods A retrospective study was conducted on patients diagnosed with PA/VSD who underwent primary right ventricular-pulmonary artery connection surgery at our center between 2010 and 2020. Patients were categorized into two groups based on the type of right ventricular-pulmonary artery connection: a pericardial tube group and a patch expansion group. Clinical data and imaging findings were compared between the two groups. Results A total of 51 patients were included in the study, comprising 31 males and 20 females, with a median age of 12.57 (4.57, 49.67) months. The pericardial tube group included 19 patients with a median age of 17.17 (7.33, 49.67) months, while the patch expansion group consisted of 32 patients with a median age of 8.58 (3.57, 52.72) months. In both groups, the diameter of pulmonary artery, McGoon index, and Nakata index significantly increased after treatment (P<0.001). However, the pericardial tube group exhibited a longer extracorporeal circulation time (P<0.001). The reoperation rate was notably high, with 74.51% of patients requiring further surgical intervention, including 26 (81.25%) patients in the patch expansion group and 12 (63.16%) patients in the pericardial tube group. No statistical differences were observed in long-term cure rates or mortality between the two groups (P＞0.005). Conclusion In patients with PA/VSD, both patch expansion and pericardial tube right ventricular-pulmonary artery connection serve as effective initial palliative treatment strategies that promote pulmonary vessel development and provide a favorable foundation for subsequent radical operations. However, compared to the pericardial tube approach, the patch expansion technique is simpler to perform and preserves some intrinsic potential for pulmonary artery development, making it the preferred procedure.

Objective To explore and evaluate the association between mitotic spindle organizing protein 2A(MZT2A)and survival prognosis and immunotherapy response of skin cutaneous melanoma(SKCM),based on multiomics data mining.Methods The expression difference and survival prognosis of MZT2A in SKCM were analyzed by the Cancer Genome Atlas database,Genotype-tissue Expression Data,Human Protein Atlas,SUMMER database.The biological function of MZT2A and related enriched pathways were analyzed by David2.The differences of immune infiltrating cells,immune therapy response and immune escape ability between high-and low-MZT2A groups were analyzed and compared by using Tumor Immune Estimation Resource,Tumor Immune Single-cell Hub,Tumor-immune System Interactions database,the Cancer Imaging Archive and Tumor Immune Dysfunction and Exclusion databases.Results The expression of MZT2A gene elevated in a variety of cancers,especially in SKCM.SKCM samples with high expression of MZT2A had a poor overall survival.The expression of MZT2A was negatively correlated with the infiltration of CD8+T cells,CD4+T cells,macrophages,neutrophils and dendritic cells in SKCM tissues.In addition,the higher the expression of MZT2A,the therapeutic response of SKCM were worse to immune checkpoint inhibitors(ICI).Conclusion MZT2A is a novel survival prediction target of SKCM.SKCM patients with high expression of MZT2A have poor response to ICI treatment,which provides a theoretical basis for predicting the survival prognosis and guiding immune targeted therapy of SKCM.

Objective:An integrated automatic quality control system(automatic quality control instrument)for high dose rate(HDR)afterloader was independently developed.This system was used to measure the placement accuracy,residence time and activity of the radioactive source,so as to assess the accuracy and stability of this system in quality assurance.Methods:The automatic quality control system was connected to the Flexitron type of HDR afterloader through a connecting tube.Quality assurance(QA)plans with different resident positions,clearances,and times were designed for measurement and verification.The measurement length was 1079-1119 mm,and the measurement time was 2-10 s,and the measurement activity was 14,326-28,653 μGy·m2·h-1.The measurements were repeated once per one week in three months,so as to determine the consistency of the measurement parameters in a longer period of time.The measurement results of the placement accuracy,resident time and activity of radioactive source of the HDR 192Ir radioactive source were analyzed.Results:The plate ionization chamber was used to measure the activity of radioactive source.In three months,the measurement deviation of the activity of radioactive source was 1.17%,and the fitted activity decay curve was consistent with the expected decay curve of radioactive source.The measurement accuracies of the positioning of radioactive source were respectively 0.46,0.18,0.23,0.25,and 0.15 mm when the interval step sizes of resident times were respectively 2,3,5,8,and 10 mm,all of them were<1 mm.The measurement accuracy of time was(4.90±0.04)s when the resident time was 5 s.In the measurement accuracy of different resident times(1,2,3,5 and 10s)of same step size,the deviation of them was less than 0.5s.When the resident time was the shortest,the deviation between the read-out value of the automatic system software of quality control and the actually resident time was(0.09±0.04)s.The measurement accuracy gradually stabilized with the increasing of resident times.Conclusion:The automatic quality control instrument can complete the measurements for the positioning accuracy,the accuracy of resident time and the activity of radioactive source,and achieve rapidly and accurately periodic quality assurance.

Objective To analyze the risk factors and prognosis of patients with advanced lung cancer complicated with immune checkpoint inhibitor-related pneumonitis(CIP).Methods A total of 220 patients with advanced lung cancer who were treated at Ganzhou Cancer Hospital from January 2022 to October 2024 were selected as the research subjects.The patients were divided into non-CIP group(n=179)and CIP group(n=41)based on whether they had concurrent CIP.Compare the clinical characteristics of two groups of patients and analyze the related influencing factors of patients with advanced lung cancer complicated with CIP.Results There were statistically significant differences in age,gender,underlying pulmonary diseases,smoking history,history of thoracic radiotherapy,treatment plans,serum albumin(Alb),platelet to lymphocyte ratio(PLR),neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio(NLR),and absolute lymphocyte count(ALC)between two groups of patients(P＜0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that age,underlying pulmonary diseases,treatment plan,Alb,PLR,NLR,and ALC were all influencing factors for patients with advanced lung cancer complicated with CIP(P＜0.05).The 90-day cumulative survival rate of patients in CIP group was significantly lower than that in non-CIP group(58.54％ vs.77.09％,x2=5.918,P=0.015).With the increase of CIP classification,the 90-day cumulative survival rate of patients showed a downward trend(P＜0.05).Conclusion The incidence of CIP in patients with advanced lung cancer is relatively high.Age,underlying pulmonary diseases,treatment plan,and levels of Alb,PLR,NLR,and ALC are all influencing factors.CIP can have adverse effects on the prognosis of patients.
