Uric acid is the end product of purine metabolism in the human body. In recent years, the role of uric acid in female fertility and assisted reproductive technology (ART) has gained increasing attention. Dysregulation of uric acid metabolism can lead to hyperuricemia (HUA). HUA is not only closely related to metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular diseases but may also adversely affect female fertility by influencing ovarian function and embryos development. In this review, we explored the role of uric acid in female fertility, including its association with female subfertility, infertility, adverse pregnancy outcomes and metabolic syndrome, as well as its potential impact on ART like in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer and intracytoplasmic sperm injection. Further studies are needed to clarify the threshold and clinical intervention value of uric acid levels in women of childbearing age, providing a basis for reproductive health counseling and personalized pregnancy assistance for HUA patients of childbearing age.

Objective To investigate the effect of epifriedelanol(Epi)on gene expression of P-glycoprotein(P-gp)in human colorectal adenocarcinoma cell line LS174T and its mechanism.Methods LS174T cells were divided into control group and experimental-L,-M,-H groups.Experimental-L,-M,-H groups were treated with 5,10,20 μmol·L-1 Epi,respectively.Control group was treated with 0.1％dimethyl sulfoxide.Polymerase chain reaction was used to detect the mRNA expression level of P-gp.Theeffect of Epi on multidrug resistance protein 1(MDR1/P-gp)luciferase activity was investigated by pregnane X receptor(PXR)-MDR1/P-gp dual luciferase reporter gene assay.In addition,Western Blot was used to detect the protein expression level of P-gp and the nuclear factor-κB(NF-κB)pathway related proteins.Results The relative expression levels of P-gp mRNA in experimental-M,-H groups and control group were 52.24±5.19,23.00±3.52 and 100.00±9.00;the relative expression levels of P-gp protein were 86.37±9.96,74.85±15.92 and 100.00±12.91;the relative activities P-gp luciferase were 230.19±41.32,203.10±52.84 and 279.67±19.20;the relative expression levels of p65(RelA/p65)in nucleus were 132.36±23.93,145.96±25.15 and 100.00±10.88;the relative expression levels of phosphorylation NF-κB inhibits protein kinase α/β(p-IKKα/β)in cytoplasm were 184.00±54.82,290.10±49.59 and 100.00±15.34;the relative expression levels of phosphorylated NF-κB inhibitory protein α(p-IκBα)in cytoplasm were 125.73±18.77,133.69±20.25 and 100.00±8.12;the relative expression levels of IκBα in cytoplasm were 78.36±14.83,70.44±14.57 and 100.00±22.82,respectively.The above indexes of experimental-M and experimental-H groups were compared with control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05,P＜0.01,P＜0.001).Conclusion Epi can down-regulate the gene expression of P-gp in human colorectal adenocarcinoma cell line LS174T,and the mechanism may be related to activation of NF-κB and suppression of PXR.

Objective The pathogenesis of EAP in rats based on the TLR4/NF-κB-NLRP3 inflammasome signaling pathway was explored.Methods Randomly divide 12 male SD rats into 4 groups using the number table,namely normal group(N),model group(M),Caspase-1 inhibitor group(Caspase-1),and NLRP3 inhibitor MCC950 group(NLRP3),with 3 rats in each group.After drug intervention,relevant indicators were observed by using HE staining,ELISA,WB methods.Results Compared with the N group,the M group rats had showed significant damage in prostate gland structure and infiltration of inflammatory cells.Compared with group N,the expression of TLR4,P-NF-κB P65,NLRP3,ASC,Cleaced-Caspase-1,Cleaced-IL-1β,and IL-18 proteins in the prostate tissue of group M rats had increased(P<0.01).Compared with group M,the expression of TLR4,P-NF-κB P65,NLRP3,ASC,Cleaced-Caspase-1,Cleaced-IL-1β,and IL-18 proteins in the NLRP3 and Caspase-1 groups had significantly reduced(P<0.01).The serum levels of IL-1 β,IL-6,IL-8,IL-17A,IL-18,IFN-γ,and TNF-α in group M rats had been significantly higher than those in group N(P<0.01).But the serum levels of IL-10 had been slightly lower and no statistical significance.The serum levels of IL-1β,IL-6,IL-8,IL-17A,IL-18,IFN-γ,and TNF-α in group M rats had been lower than those in group N(P<0.01 or P<0.05),the serum IL-10 level had increased(P<0.01).Conclusion The activation of TLR4/NF-κB-NLRP3 inflammasome signaling path-way promotes the occurrence and development of prostatitis in EAP rats.

Central nervous system(CNS)degenerative disorders refer to a spectrum of pathological alterations triggered by struc-tural damage to cerebral neural tissues,clinically manifested as diverse neurological dysfunction syndromes,including multiple sclerosis(MS),neurodegenerative diseases(NDs),and ische-mic stroke.The hallmark pathological features of these disorders involve irreversible neuronal damage and decompensation of functional neural networks,ultimately leading to progressive neurological deficits.Notably,with the accelerating global popu-lation aging,the incidence of these diseases has surged signifi-cantly.According to WHO statistics,they now rank among the top three global causes of disability and mortality.Current re-search has confirmed that the pathogenesis of CNS degenerative disorders exhibits high heterogeneity,encompassing multifaceted pathophysiological processes such as genetic predisposition,oxi-dative stress,protein misfolding,and metabolic dysregulation.This intricate pathogenic network not only complicates clinical differential diagnosis but also poses substantial challenges to the development of precision therapeutic strategies.Importantly,re-cent studies have revealed that mitochondrial homeostasis disrup-tion-induced inflammatory cascades(termed mitochondrial in-flammation)play a pivotal regulatory role in neurodegenerative progression.Key molecular mechanisms include impaired mito-phagy,aberrant mitochondrial DNA(mtDNA)release and NL-RP3 inflammasome activation.This review systematically deci-phers the molecular regulatory network of mitochondrial inflam-mation,with a focus on its biological effects in critical pathologi-cal events such as blood-brain barrier disruption,microglial hy-peractivation and neuronal apoptosis.The overarching aim is to provide a theoretical foundation for developing innovative thera-peutic strategies targeting mitochondrial homeostasis restoration.

To summarize the research progress and to discuss current drug supplement status of radiation preventive and curative drugs,which would provide fresh thoughts for nuclear emergency rescue and therapy.Classification of clinically available and under-development radiation prevention and treatment drugs has been presented in terms of symptomatic and causative prevention and treatment drugs.We analyzed the necessity and challenges of establishing a supply system for radiation prevention and treatment and put forward counter measures and thinking prospects.Clinical stockpile of symptomatic drugs is relatively sufficient.Allopathic drugs are widely developed,however,the barriers between research and clinical translation and the inadequate market supply system pose greater demands and challenges to the provision of hospital radiation allopathic drugs.

Objective:To investigate the effects of Feilike mixture combined with Montelukast sodium on pulmonary function and inflammatory immune response in patients with Acute exacerbation of Chronic obstructive Pulmonary Disease(AECOPD).Methods:82 patients with AECOPD were divided into control group and observation group,with 41 cases in each group by random number table method.The control group was treated with conventional treatment+Montelukast sodium,and the observation group was treated with Feilike mixture+conventional treatment+montelukast sodium.After two weeks,the clinical efficacy,pulmonary function,immune function,inflammatory factors,and treatment safety of the two groups were evaluated.Results:The total effective rate in observation group was higher than that in control group(P＜0.05).Ratio of Forced expiratory volume in the first second(FEV1)to forced vital capacity(FVC)(FEV1/FVC),FEV1,FEV1 percentage of estimated value(FEV1％pred)in observa tion group after treatment were higher than those in control group(P＜0.05).CD3+,CD4+,CD4+/CD8+in observation group after treatment were higher than those in control group,and CD8+was lower than that in control group(P＜0.05).The levels of pulmonary surfactant protein-A(SP-A),interleukin-17(IL-17)and Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor(G-CSF)in observation group after treatment were lower than those in control group(P＜0.05).There was no difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion:Feilike Mixture combined with Montelukast sodium can effectively improve pulmonary function and regulate inflammatory immune response in patients with AECOPD,with no obvious adverse reactions during the treatment.

Isoflavones which mainly distributed in leguminous plants have plenty of health benefits.Isoflavone synthase(IFS)is a membrane-associated cytochrome P450 enzyme(CYP450)which carries out the unique aryl-ring migration and hydroxylation.So far,few crystal structures of plant P450s have been obtained.We determined the crystal structure of IFS from Medicago truncatula at 1.9 ? by MAD method using a selenomethionine substituted crystal and conducted molecular docking and mutagenesis study.The structure of IFS complexed with imidazole exhibits the helix Ⅰa-loop-helix Ⅰβ motif which cor-responds to helix Ⅰ of other P450s.Compared with structures of common P450s,IFS/imidazole structure contains an extra domain,i.e.,the γ-domain.The structure reveals a homodimer in which the γ-domain of one molecule interacts with the β-domain of another.The plane of heme group makes an angle of ap-proximately 40° with the helix Ⅰa-loop-helix Ⅰβ motif.Molecular docking combined with mutagenesis study suggested that Trp-128 and Asp-300 might play important roles in substrate binding and recogni-tion.Phe-301,Ser-303 and Gly-305 from the helix Ⅰa-loop-helix Ⅰβ motif may play important roles in the aryl-ring migration.These novel structural features reveal insights into the unique reaction mechanism of IFS and provide a basis for engineering IFS in leguminous crops for health purpose.

The prevalence of Class III malocclusion varies among different countries and regions. The populations from Southeast Asian countries (Chinese and Malaysian) showed the highest prevalence rate of 15.8%, which can seriously affect oral function, facial appearance, and mental health. As anterior crossbite tends to worsen with growth, early orthodontic treatment can harness growth potential to normalize maxillofacial development or reduce skeletal malformation severity, thereby reducing the difficulty and shortening the treatment cycle of later-stage treatment. This is beneficial for the physical and mental growth of children. Therefore, early orthodontic treatment for Class III malocclusion is particularly important. Determining the optimal timing for early orthodontic treatment requires a comprehensive assessment of clinical manifestations, dental age, and skeletal age, and can lead to better results with less effort. Currently, standardized treatment guidelines for early orthodontic treatment of Class III malocclusion are lacking. This review provides a comprehensive summary of the etiology, clinical manifestations, classification, and early orthodontic techniques for Class III malocclusion, along with systematic discussions on selecting early treatment plans. The purpose of this expert consensus is to standardize clinical practices and improve the treatment outcomes of Class III malocclusion through early orthodontic treatment.
