Objective: To analyze the change trends in the body shape indicators and proportions of students in Harbin from 2010 to 2024, and to investigate ergonomic compatibility of functional dimensions of school desks and chairs with current student shape indicators, so as to provide a reference for revising furniture standards of desks and chairs. Methods: Between September and November of both 2010 and 2024, a combination of convenience sampling and stratified cluster random sampling was conducted across three districts in Harbin, yielding samples of 6 590 and 6 252 students, respectively. Anthropometric shape indicators cluding height, sitting height, crus length, and thigh length-and their proportional changes were compared over the 15-year period. The 2024 data were compared with current standard functional dimensions of school furniture. The statistical analysis incorporated t-test and Mann-Whitney U- test. Results: From 2010 to 2024, average height increased by 1.8 cm for boys and 1.5 cm for girls; sitting height increased by 1.5 cm for both genders; crus length increased by 0.3 cm for boys and 0.4 cm for girls; and thigh length increased by 0.5 cm for both genders. The ratios of sitting height to height, and sitting height to leg length increased by less than 0.1 . The difference between desk chair height and 1/3 sitting height ranged from 0.4-0.8 cm. Among students matched with size 0 desks and chairs, 22.0% had a desk to chair height difference less than 0, indicating that the desk to chair height difference might be insufficient for taller students. The differences between seat height and fibular height ranged from -1.4 to 1.1 cm; and the differences between seat depth and buttock popliteal length ranged from -9.8 to 3.4 cm. Among obese students, the differences between seat width and 1/2 hip circumference ranged from -20.5 to -8.7 cm, while it ranged from -12.2 to -3.8 cm among non obese students. Conclusion Current furniture standards basically satisfy hygienic requirements; however, in the case of exceptionally tall and obese students, ergonomic accommodations such as adaptive seating allocation or personalized adjustments are recommended to meet hygienic requirements.

Bronchial asthma （asthma） is a heterogeneous disease characterized by airflow limitation， airway remodeling， and recurrent symptoms such as wheezing， shortness of breath， chest tightness， and cough. Its prevalence is gradually increasing， and a portion of patients are still poorly controlled， leading to a serious social and medical burden. Modern studies have proposed the concept of the "lung-gut axis"， which is based on the crosstalk between microorganisms and their metabolites in the lungs and large intestine， and have indicated that microbial dysbiosis in these organs may affect the onset and progression of asthma. Traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） has found the phenomenon of lung-intestinal comorbidity and put forward the importance of "lung-intestinal coordination therapy" in the treatment of lung-related diseases. It has been found that intestinal flora and their metabolites can modulate immune responses through the lung-gut axis， demonstrating great potential for predicting asthma susceptibility， anticipating phenotypes， assessing asthma severity， and guiding treatment. TCM comopunds that embody lung-intestinal coordination therapy， including herbal formulas， single herbs， acupuncture， moxibustion， acupoint application， and spinal pinching therapy， has been shown to regulate intestinal flora， improve metabolism， regulate immunity， alleviate lung inflammation， reduce mucus secretion， inhibit airway remodeling， effectively alleviate symptoms， and delay lung function decline. Based on "lung-intestinal coordination therapy"， this paper used intestinal flora as the entry point to summarize the underlying mechanisms of TCM in asthma treatment and highlighted the pivotal role of intestinal flora in asthma， providing a new idea for its clinical treatment through the intestinal flora .

Aim To explore the effect and mechanism of the artesunate(ART)on hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).Methods The cell lines MHCC-97H and HCC-LM3 were used to be detected.MTT and clone formation were used to determine the cell proliferation;Wound healing was used to detect the cell migration;Transwell was used to test the cell invasion.Flow-cy-tometry was used to detect cell apoptosis and cell cy-cle.RNA-seq and qRT-PCR was used to detect the genes expression.Results The proliferation,migra-tion and invasion of treated cells were obviously inhibi-ted(P＜0.01).Moreover,the apoptosis rate in-creased significantly,so did the proportion of G2/M cells.Transcriptomic analysis identified GADD45A as a potential target of ART through RNA-sequencing da-ta,and suggested that ART might induce apoptosis and cell cycle arrest through regulating the expression of GADD45A.In addition,the results of mechanism studies and signaling analysis suggested that GADD45A had interaction with its upstream gene NACC1(nucle-us accumbens associated 1).Moreover,after ART treatment,the expressions of GADD45A and NACC1 were changed significantly.Conclusion ART may be a potential drug to resist HCC by affecting the expres-sion of GADD45A and its upstream gene NACC1,which provides a new drug,a new direction and a new method for the clinical treatment of HCC.

In the process of seeking new strategies to improve the efficacy of antidepressants,traditional Chinese medicine inter-vention has gradually revealed its unique prevention and treat-ment advantages.The dopamine reward system is closely in-volved in the pathological occurrence and development of depres-sion.Currently,research has mostly focused on the functional mechanism of a specific nucleus in the dopamine reward system,and there is less research focused on the functional mechanism of the neural circuit.In the current micro research on reward cir-cuits,the association between abnormal reward circuits and neg-ative emotions such as anxiety and depression has been widely recognized.Traditional Chinese medicine intervention can exert antidepressant effects by influencing reward circuits.This article provides a review on the loop mechanism of dopamine reward system involvement in depression and research on traditional Chinese medicine intervention.

Aim To investigate the intracellular up-take and target protein binding characteristics of two Bruton's tyrosine kinase inhibitors(BTKi)with differ-ent selectivities to provide further insights into the mechanisms of drug off-target-related bleeding risk.Methods Ibrutinib(non-selective BTKi)and za-nubrutinib(selective BTKi)were used as study drugs.After incubation of MEC-1 cells and human platelets with drugs,the cellular thermal shift assay(CETSA)was combined with Western blot to obtain the melting curve and isothermal curve to analyze the binding char-acteristics of the two drugs with the target protein BTK.After incubation of MEC-1 cells and human platelets with drugs,the concentrations of the two drugs were detected by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry(LC-MS/MS)to analyze the intracellular uptake of the two drugs.Results CETSA analysis confirmed that zanubrutinib was more selective for the target protein BTK compared to ibrutinib.LC-MS/MS analysis showed that both drugs were uptaken intracel-lularly by MEC-1 cells and platelets in a concentration-dependent manner.Conclusions While BTKi targe-ting BTK to B lymphocytes exerts therapeutic effects,off-target effects on platelets due to differences in their intracellular uptake,and target-binding characteristics may be one of the reasons for the differences in bleed-ing risk across selective BTKi.

The current treatment of glioma is facing drug resistance,which limits the efficacy of traditional chemotherapy drugs.This study aims to explore the potential mechanisms of the trifluoromethylquinazoline compound(KZL204)against glioma.Through the Cell Counting Kit-8(CCK-8)assay,we found that KZL204 significantly inhibits the growth of drug-resistant cancer cells,with a 48-hour half-maximal inhibitory concentration(IC50)of 3.63±0.38 μmol/L,which is significantly better than the positive control drug temozolomide(TMZ)(IC50 value of 81.67±5.49 μmol/L).Additionally,flow cytometry analysis showed that KZL204 treatment significantly increased the apoptosis rate of drug-resistant tumor cells and arrested the cell cycle at the G2/M phase.At the same time,the Transwell assay confirmed the inhibitory effect of KZL204 on the migration and invasion of drug-resistant cancer cells.Transcriptome analysis revealed 2 435 differentially expressed genes in drug-resistant cancer cells treated with KZL204,of which 1 320 were upregulated,and 1 115 were downregulated.KEGG and GO enrichment analysis showed that these differential genes were significantly enriched in apoptosis-related signaling pathways.Further bioinformatics prediction and Venn diagram analysis identified 35 potential core targets,with the PI3K-AKT signaling pathway being the most significant among the differentially expressed genes.Quantitative real-time PCR(RT-qPCR)experiments confirmed the downregulating effects of KZL204 on genes such as CREB3L1,CSF1,CXCL5,BCL3,and the upregulating effects on genes like FOS,LT A,PTGS2,MAP2K3.Immunoblotting experiments at the protein level also confirmed the impact of KZL204 on the expression of apoptotic proteins,including the upregulation of Bax,cleaved Caspase-3 protein,and the downregulation ofAKT,Bcl-2,Caspase-3,and Caspase-8 protein expression.In summary,KZL204 significantly inhibits the growth and metastasis of drug-resistant glioblastoma and induces apoptosis and cell cycle arrest by regulating the PI3K-AKT and apoptosis-related signaling pathways,demonstrating its potential as a candidate drug against drug-resistant glioma.

Objective:To observe the effect of resveratrol(Res)on T-acute lymphoblastic leukemia(T-ALL)mice,and further explore its mechanism on Notch1 signaling pathway.Methods:Twenty-five 6-8 weeks old female C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into control group,T-ALL group and Res group.Res group was further divided into low-Res.middle-Res and high-Res group.The percentage of leukemia cells in peripheral blood and spleen cell suspension were detected by flow cytometry and Wright-Giemsa staining,pathological morphology of spleen and bone marrow tissues were observed by HE staining,the expression levels of Notch1,Hes-1,c-Myc,miR-19b and PTEN mRNA in spleen tissue were detected by RT-qPCR,and the protein levels of Notch1,Hes-1,c-Myc,p-PTEN and PTEN were detected by Western blot.Results:Compared with control group,the leukemia cells in peripheral blood of mice in T-ALL group were markedly increased,accompanied by diffuse infiltration of leukemia cells in spleen and bone marrow tissues,the mRNA levels of Notch1,Hes-1,c-Myc,miR-19b and the protein levels of Notch1.Hes-1,c-Myc were increased(P＜0.01),while the expression of PTEN mRNA and protein were significantly decreased in the spleen tissue of T-ALL mice(P＜0.01).The above indicators in the H-Res group were reversed compared with T-ALL group after administration of resveratrol.Conclusion:Resveratrol may play a role in anti T-ALL by inhibiting Notch1 signaling pathway in mice.

Objective:To investigate the effect of genetic polymorphism of MTHFR C677T (rs1801133) on methotrexate (MTX) related toxicity in pediatric mature B-cell lymphoma patients. Methods:Fifty-eight intermediate and high risk patients under 18 years of age with mature B-cell lymphoma who received 5 g/m2 MTX (24 h intravenous infusion) in Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center from August 2014 to December 2021 were included,and their toxicity of high-dose MTX (HD-MTX) were monitored and analyzed. Results:Among the 58 pediatric patients,the number of CC,CT,and TT genotypes for MTHFR C677T was 33,19 and 6,respectively. A total of 101 courses of HD-MTX therapy were counted,of which plasma MTX level>0.2 μmol/L at 48 h post-MTX infusion were observed in 35 courses,≤0.2 μmol/L in 66 courses. Inter-group comparison showed that plasma MTX level>0.2 μmol/L at 48 h post-MTX infusion increased the risk of developing oral mucositis (P<0.05). Compared with wild-type (CC genotype),patients in the mutant group (CT+TT genotype) were more likely to develop myelosuppression,manifested as anemia,leucopenia,neutropenia and thrombocytopenia. However,plasma MTX level at 48 h was not associated with MTHFR C677T gene polymorphism. Conclusion:The risk of developing oral mucositis in children with mature B-cell lymphoma is associated with plasma MTX concentration. Polymorphism of MTHFR C677T gene is not related to plasma MTX concentration in children with mature B-cell lymphoma,but is related to grade Ⅲ to Ⅳ hematological toxicity.

Objective:To evaluate the relationship between glutathione S-transferase μ1 (GSTM1) and the apoptosis signal-regulating kinase 1 (ASK1)-c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK)/p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway during therapeutic hypothermia-induced reduction of cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury (CIRI) in rats.Methods:One hundred clean-grade healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats, aged 8 weeks, weighing 260-280 g, were divided into 5 groups ( n=20 each) using a random number table method: sham operation group (S group), cerebral ischemia-reperfusion group (I/R group), therapeutic hypothermia group (H group), GSTM1 inhibitor+ therapeutic hypothermia group (IH group), and GSTM1 inhibitor + ASK1 inhibitor + therapeutic hypothermia group (IAH group). CIRI model was developed by occlusion of the left middle cerebral artery for 2 h, followed by restoration of the blood flow. A nylon thread was inserted into the internal carotid artery and advanced cephalad until resistance was met. The brain temperature was maintained at 36-37 ℃ during surgery. In H group, the head and neck were wiped with 75% alcohol immediately after reperfusion, and the brain temperature was maintained at 32-33℃ for 3 h, and the rest procedures were the same as those previously described in I/R group. In IH group, GSTM1 inhibitor itaconic acid 8.6 mg/kg was intraperitoneally injected at 24 and 1 h before developing the model, and the rest procedures were the same as those previously described in H group. In IAH group, ASK1 inhibitor selonsertib 10 mg/kg was given orally once a day for 4 consecutive days starting from 4 days before developing the model, and the rest procedures were the same as those previously described in IH group. Modified Neurological Severity Score (mNSS) was assessed at 24 h of reperfusion, then the rats were sacrificed and brains were harvested for microscopic examination of brain infarction, neuronal morphology (using HE staining) and for determination of the expression of GSTM1, ASK1, phosphorylated ASK1 (p-ASK1), JNK, phosphorylated JNK (p-JNK), p-38 MAPK and phosphorylated p-38 MAPK (p-p38 MAPK) (by Western blot) and neuronal apoptosis (by TUNEL assay). The percentage of the infarct size was calculated using TTC staining. The apoptosis rate was calculated. Results:Compared with S group, the mNSS, apoptosis rate of neurons, percentage of the cerebral infarct size, p-ASK1/ASK1 ratio, p-JNK/JNK ratio and p-p38 MAPK/p38 MAPK ratio were significantly increased, and the expression of GSTM1 was down-regulated in I/R group ( P<0.05). Compared with I/R group and IH group, the mNSS, apoptosis rate of neurons, percentage of the cerebral infarct size, p-ASK1/ASK1 ratio, p-JNK/JNK ratio and p-p38 MAPK/p38 MAPK ratio were significantly decreased, the expression of GSTM1 was up-regulated ( P<0.05), and the neuronal injury was significantly attenuated in H group. Compared with IH group, the mNSS, apoptosis rate of neurons, percentage of the cerebral infarct size, p-ASK1/ASK1 ratio, p-JNK/JNK ratio and p-p38 MAPK/p38 MAPK ratio were significantly decreased ( P<0.05), no significant change was found in GSTM1 expression ( P>0.05), and the neuronal damage was significantly attenuated in IAH group. Conclusions:The mechanism by which therapeutic hypothermia alleviates CIRI is related to up-regulating the expression of GSTM1 and inhibiting the activation of the ASK1-JNK-p38 MAPK signaling pathway in rats.
