The therapeutic effects of Yueju Pills on depression and cardiovascular diseases have been widely recognized. Previous studies have shown that the drug can significantly improve depressive-like behaviors induced by chronic unpredictable mild stress(CUMS) combined with atherosclerosis(AS). Given the complex pathogenesis of psychocardiac diseases, this study integrated metabolomics and network pharmacology to systematically elucidate the mechanism of Yueju Pills in alleviating depressive symptoms in psychocardiac diseases. The results demonstrate that, after Yueju Pill intervention, the levels of 9 abnormal metabolites in the hippocampus restore to normal ranges, primarily involving key pathways or signaling pathways, including the cyclic adenosine monophosphate(cAMP), mammalian target of rapamycin(mTOR), glycine/serine/threonine metabolism, and aminoacyl-tRNA biosynthesis. In a high-fat diet-induced CUMS ApoE~(-/-) mouse model, Yueju Pills significantly increases adenosine monophosphate(AMP) levels and decreases L-alanine and D-glyceric acid levels in the hippocampus. In conclusion, Yueju Pills exert antidepressant effects by regulating multiple metabolic axes, including glycine/serine/threonine metabolism and the cAMP, mTOR signaling pathways. Network pharmacology predictions reveal that the treatment of CUMS combined with AS by its core active components may be realized through modulating pathways concerning neuroinflammation and synaptic plasticity, including serine/threonine-protein kinase 1(AKT1), mitogen-activated protein kinase 1(MAPK1), and prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 2(PTGS2). This study provides a theoretical reference for the clinical application of Yueju Pills in alleviating the depressive symptoms of psychocardiac diseases.

With the rapid development of competitive sports, the incidence of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury is on the rise. Such injuries may shorten athletes′ career and lead to other long-term adverse consequences. Although athletes generally recover well after ACL reconstruction, many still struggle to return to their pre-injury performance levels. Advances in the understanding of ACL anatomy and injury mechanisms, along with the evolution of surgical techniques and rehabilitation methods, have provided more individualized and tailored options for athletes following ACL injuries. However, there is currently no consensus in China regarding surgical and rehabilitation strategies for competitive athletes aiming to return to sports after ACL injuries. To this end, the Sports Medicine Committee of the Chinese Research Hospital Association and the Editorial Board of the Chinese Journal of Trauma jointly formulated the Expert consensus on surgical treatment and rehabilitation for competitive sports athletes returning to sports after anterior cruciate ligament injury ( version 2025), and presented 14 recommendations covering surgical indications, preoperative rehabilitation, surgical timing, surgical strategies and postoperative rehabilitation strategies, aiming to improve the surgical treatment and rehabilitation system for ACL injuries in competitive athletes and facilitate their return to high-level sports performance after injury.

Objective To investigate the safety and efficacy of novel bioabsorbable vascular scaffold(BVS)in the treatment of patients with complex coronary artery disease.Methods This was a retrospective,matched,single-center observational study.45 patients with coronary atherosclerotic cardiopathy received BVS treatment in the cardiovascular medicine department Department of the Affiliated Hospital of Guangdong Medical University from June 2020 to June 2021(BVS),and 45 patients treated with drug-eluting stents(DES)group were selected according to matching study requirements during the same period.Baseline,surgical,and follow-up data were compared between the two groups to evaluate safety and efficacy.The main measures of safety were:surgical time,intraoperative adverse events,etc.,and the end point of efficacy was target lesion failure(TLF),including cardiac death,target vessel myocardial infarction,and ischa-driven target lesion revascularization.Results A total of 90 patients were enrolled in this study,all of whom were followed up for at least 3 years.There were 20 cases of bifurcation lesions and 25 cases of diffuse long lesions in the two groups,and 50 cases of imaging were reviewed among the 90 patients.The proportion of stable coronary heart disease,history of diabetes,history of hypertension,history of smoking,pre-dilated balloon pressure and postoperative diastolic blood pressure in BVS group was higher than that in DES group,and the proportion of family history was lower than that in DES group(all P＜0.05).There were no statistically significant differences in the rates of cardiac death,target vessel myocardial infarction,and ischemia-driven revascularization of target lesions between the two groups(all P＞0.05).Binary Logistic regression model analysis showed that the diameter stenosis ratio of target lesions was an independent risk factor for intrastent restenosis(OR 2.786,95％CI 1.096-7.081,P=0.031).Conclusions Compared with traditional DES,BVS implantation has consistent safety and efficacy in the treatment of complex coronary artery disease within 3 years.The diameter stenosis ratio of target lesions was an independent risk factor for intrastent restenosis.

Cystic echinococcosis(CE)is a severe parasitic zoonosis that poses a significant threat to human health.As one of the pathogens of CE,Echinococcus canadensis genotype G7 is an increasingly important cause of CE patients and endemic re-gions have been gradually expanding in recent years.Therefore,it is particularly important to clarify its influence in both hu-mans and livestock.This review is the first to summarize the epidemiology,biological characteristics,mitochondrial and ge-nomic molecular features,molecular genetic markers,and prevention and control strategies as a valuable reference for molecu-lar epidemiological investigations and preventative measures for control of E.canadensis G7 in China.

Objective To explore the effects of the long non-coding RNA(lncRNA)NK2 homeobox 1-antisense RNA 1(NK2-1-AS1),which mediates the microRNA(miR)-96-5p/PR domain-containing protein 16(PRDM16)axis,on anaplastic thyroid cancer(ATC)cell proliferation,migration,and invasion in vitro and transplanted tumor growth in vivo.Methods The differentially expressed lncRNA NKX2-1-AS1 in ATC tissues and cells,its target miRNA miR-96-5p,and its downstream target gene PRDM16 were screened using a bioinformatics analysis.The dual-luciferase reporter assay validated the relationship between NKX2-1-AS1 and miR-96-5p as well as the connection between miR-96-5p and PRDM16.Western blotting was performed to detect the effect of miR-96-5p overexpression on PRDM16 in CAL-62 cells overexpressed with NKX2-1-AS1.Plate clone formation,scratch,and Transwell assays were used to detect the effects of PRDM16knockdown on the proliferation,migration,and invasion of CAL-62 cells overexpressing NKX2-1-AS1.CAL-62 cells were injected subcutaneously into nude mice and the effect was observed of PRDM16knockdown on the growth of transplanted tumors of CAL-62 cells overexpressing NKX2-1-AS1.Results The bioinformatics analysis revealed that the NK2-1-AS1/miR-96-5p/PRDM16 axis was involved in regulating ATC development.The dual-luciferase reporter assay demonstrated that NKX2-1-AS1 bound to miR-96-5p and miR-96-5p bound to PRDM16.NKX2-1-AS1 overexpression upregulated PRDM16 protein expression in CAL-62 cells,while miR-96-5p overexpression reversed this phenomenon.NKX2-1-AS1 overexpression inhibited CAL-62 cellular proliferation,migration,and invasion in vitro and transplanted tumor growth in vivo,while knocking down PRDM16 reversed these phenomena.Conclusion NK2-1-AS1 may compete with miR-96-5p as an endogenous RNA to bind to its downstream target gene,PRDM16,and upregulate its expression,thus inhibiting ATC cell proliferation,migration,and invasion in vitro and transplanted tumor growth in vivo.

Objective To explore the role and mechanism of RNA demethylase fat mass and obesity-associated protein(FTO)in the ferroptosis in testicular interstitial cells induced by di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate(DEHP).Methods Forty 3-week-old C57BL/6 male mice were randomly divided into a control group(corn oil)and 3 dosed DEHP treatment groups(5,250 and 500 mg/kg),and received an intragastric infusion of corresponding agents for 35 d,respectively.After mouse testicular interstitial TM3 cells was treated with 0,100,200 and 400 μmol/L mono-2-ethylhexyl phthalate(MEHP)for 24 h,corresponding plasmids were transfected to construct Fto overexpressing TM3 cells.Serum testosterone level was detected by ELISA,expression of testicular proteins was detected with immunohistochemical assay,and contents of Fe2+,malondialdehyde(MDA)and lipid peroxides in the testicle were detected by colorimetry.Methylated RNA immunoprecipitation,RT-PCR,and Western blotting were used to detect the level of N6-methyladenosine(m6A)modification.Results In the mice exposed to 250 and 500 mg/kg DEHP,the serum testosterone level was significantly reduced(P＜0.01),contents of Fe2+,MAD and lipid peroxides in testicular tissue were obviously increased(P＜0.01),and protein levels of RNA demethylase FTO,and ferroptosis related molecules ferritin heavy chain 1(FTH1)and glutathione peroxidase 4(GPX4)were significantly down-regulated(P＜0.05),while those of transferrin receptor(TFRC),ferroportin(FPN),cyclooxygenase-2(COX-2),and acyl-CoA synthetase long-chain family member 4(ACSL4)were notably up-regulated(P＜0.05).MEHP treatment for 24 h resulted in remarkably decreased cell viability in the TM3 cells,increased production of intracellular reactive oxygen species(ROS),reduced mitochondrial membrane potential(MMP)(P＜0.01),down-regulated mRNA and protein levels of Fto(P＜0.01),and the changes in other ferroptosis related proteins were consistent with the trend in testicular tissue,indicating ferroptosis in testicular interstitial cells.Intervention with ferroptosis inhibitor Fer-1 or overexpression of Fto significantly inhibited MEHP-induced toxicity and ferroptosis in TM3 cells(P＜0.05),and overexpression of Fto reduced the m6A modification of Gpx4 and Fth1 mRNA(P＜0.05).Conclusion Abnormal m6A modification of Gpx4 and Fth1 caused by inhibiting FTO expression may be the mechanism of ferroptosis in testicular interstitial cells induced by DEHP.
