The Guidelines for Construction of Traditional Chinese Medicine Pharmacovigilance Systems in Medical Institutions (T/CACM 1563.2-2024) were the first special guideline in China to systematically assist medical institutions in establishing a pharmacovigilance system tailored to the characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). This guideline was jointly developed with 23 authoritative medical and research institutions in China, under the lead of the Institute of Basic Clinical Medicine, China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences. The purpose of this guideline was to standardize pharmacovigilance work throughout the entire lifecycle of TCM (including research and development, marketing, and application) and to establish a four-dimensional framework of "organizational structure, institutional system, information platform, and vigilance activities". Key components included the establishment of a TCM Safety Committee, the construction of nine core systems, the development of an information platform that complies with International Council for Harmonization of Technical Requirements for Pharmaceuticals for Human Use (ICH) E2B standards, alongside the risk monitoring, identification, assessment, and control during clinical trials and post-marketing phases. Therefore, this guideline filled a significant gap in the systemic standards for TCM safety management within medical institutions. Strictly adhering to domestic and international laws and regulations, the guideline compilation involved multiple rounds of expert interviews, systematic evidence integration, and broad consensus. This guideline was specified to be applicable to medical institutions at all levels, primarily addressing core issues, including the difficulty in adverse reaction identification, low reporting rates, and incomplete risk management chains due to the complex composition and diverse application of TCM. The compilation process was scientific and rigorous, ensuring alignment with current national laws and regulations, and was registered internationally. In the future, implementation will be promoted through standardized training, tiered dissemination, as well as a post-effect evaluation and dynamic revision mechanism starting two years after publication. All these aimed to enhance medical institutions' proactive capabilities in preventing and controlling TCM safety risks, ensure patient medication safety, and promote the high-quality development of TCM.

To standardize the clinical application of oral Chinese patent medicines (CPMs), and address the safety issues arising from their dosage form characteristics, irrational clinical use, and the lack of targeted pharmacovigilance systems, the China Association of Chinese Medicine organized the formulation and release of Pharmacovigilance Guidelines for Clinical Application of Oral Chinese Patent Medicines, aiming to inform the safe clinical use of oral CPMs and related pharmacovigilance work. According to the principles of GB/T1.1—2020 and the Drug Administration Law of the People's Republic of China (2019 revision), the Institute of Basic Research in Clinical Medicine, China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences, led a drafting group comprising 18 institutions. After multiple rounds of expert interviews, literature retrieval, evidence screening, and extensive solicitation of opinions, the Guidelines were registered internationally. Systematic standardization focused on safety monitoring, risk identification, assessment, control, and other aspects. The Guidelines clarified the characteristics of oral CPMs in terms of safety monitoring, known risks, and potential risks, compared to non-oral CPMs. Then, risk control measures were proposed, including medication in special populations and irrational medication. As a special guideline for pharmacovigilance in the clinical application of oral CPMs, the Guidelines systematically construct a technical system in line with the characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), which is essential for improving the clinical safety management of oral CPMs and provides an important reference for medical institutions, pharmaceutical manufacturers, and regulatory authorities.

Objective:To investigate the protective effect of PSD95 on neurobehavioral abnormalities and synaptic damage in cortex induced by hypoxia exposure in mice.Methods:The 3-week-old C57BL/6 male mice were injected with neuron-specific adeno-associated virus through stereotaxic brain after 7 days of normal environment adaptation.The mice were divided into normoxia group(AAV-NC-Nor),control hypoxia group(AAV-NC-Hyp),normal oxygen group with over-expression of postsynaptic density-95(PSD95)(AAV-PSD95-Nor),and hypoxia group with over-expression of PSD95(AAV-PSD95-Hyp).Using a hypobaric hypoxia chamber,PSD95-overexpressing mice were continuously ex-posed to hypoxic conditions for 14 days to establish a hypoxia exposure model.The open field,elevated cross maze and conditioned fear tests were used to detect the neurobehavioral activities of mice,and Golgi staining was used to observe the density of neuronal dendritic spines in cortex.The expression of PSD95,SYN1 and N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor subtype 2A(NMDAR2A)were detected by Western blot.Result:Compared with the normal oxygen group,the total distance and average speed of exercise in the open field experiment of mice in hypoxia group increased(P<0.01),the rigidity time of mice in the conditioned fear box decreased(P<0.01),and the density of dendritic spines in cortical region decreased(P<0.05).The expressions of PSD95,SYN1 and NMDAR2A were decreased(P<0.05).After the over-expression of PSD95,the autonomic activity of mice was reduced,the fear memory was relieved(P<0.05),the dendrite density was reversed(P<0.05),and the expression of synaptic related protein was increased(P<0.05).Conclusion:Over-expression of PSD95 can alleviate neurobehavioral abnormalities and decline of fear memory induced under hypoxia exposure,protect neuronal dendritic spine injury in cortical region,and up-regulate the expression of syn-aptic protein.

AIM:To explore the efficacy of lenvatinib(Len)in enhancing the therapeutic effects of immune checkpoint inhibitor for hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)and to delve into its immunomodulatory mechanisms within the tumor microenvironment.METHODS:The effects of various concentrations of Len on the migration of human umbilical vein endothelial cells(HUVECs)and the secretion of CXC chemokine ligand 10(CXCL10)were investigated,and the mechanism by which Len modulates CXCL10 secretion was validated.An orthotopic HCC model was established,and the mice bearing tumors were randomly allocated into 4 groups:PBS group,BMS-202(PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor)group,Len group,and Len/BMS-202 group.The progression of the orthotopic liver tumors was monitored with small animal in vivo im-aging techniques.On the 13th day after the treatment,mice were sacrificed and tumor tissues were harvested for analysis.Immunofluorescence was employed to identify apoptosis,vascular architecture,and hypoxic status within the tumor tis-sue.The expression levels of proliferation marker Ki67,transforming growth factor-β(TGF-β),and the infiltration de-grees of CD4+T cells and CD8+T cells in the tumor tissue were monitored with immunohistochemistry.The secretion of im-mune factors interferon-γ(IFN-γ),CXCL10 and TGF-α in the mouse serum was quantified with ELISA.Above all data were followed by statistical analysis.RESULTS:(1)Len could facilitate endothelial cell migration within a specific range and potentiated the response of tumor cells to IFN-γ by blocking fibroblast growth factor receptor(FGFR),thereby increasing the secretion of CXCL10 from the tumor cells.(2)Compared with PBS group,tumor growth was slower in all treatment groups,with Len/BMS-202 group showing the most significant inhibition of tumor growth in tumor-bearing mice(P<0.05).(3)Compared with PBS group and monotherapy groups,Len/BMS-202 significantly promoted tumor tissue apoptosis and inhibited tumor cell proliferation(P<0.05).(4)Compared with PBS group and BMS-202 group,both Len group and Len/BMS-202 group manifested a substantial enhancement in pericytes coverage rate(P<0.01),concomitantly showing a marked improvement in hypoxic conditions(P<0.01).(5)Compared with PBS group and monotherapy groups,Len/BMS-202 group showed a significant increase in the infiltration of CD4+T cells and CD8+T cells within the tumor(P<0.01),along with a marked decrease in the expression of TGF-β(P<0.01).(6)Compared with PBS group,all treatment groups collectively induced varying degrees of secretion of IFN-γ,CXCL10 and TGF-α in mouse serum(P<0.05),with Len/BMS-202 group demonstrating the most pronounced effects(P<0.01).CONCLUSION:Lenvatinib may augment the therapeutic efficacy of BMS-202 in HCC by facilitating tumor vascular normalization,alleviating hypoxic conditions,and enhancing the secretion of CXCL10,thereby synergistically activating the tumor immune microenvironment.
