Atherosclerosis(AS)is the important pathological foundation of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.There is a high degree of consistency between AS and yin-nature carbuncles in terms of etiology,disease-location,severity of illness,pathogenesis,therapies and progression of disease.Based on the theory of yin-nature carbuncles and after the analysis of the characteristics of zang-fu organs mainly involved in AS and the intricate pathogenesis of AS,this paper put forward the use of warming-eliminating,warming-expulsing and warming-tonifying therapies together for treating AS,and established Chiqilin Powder,the experienced prescription including triplet medicinals,i.e.,Notoginseng Radix et Rhizoma,Draconis Sanguis,and Fermentum Rubrum.In the prescription,Notoginseng Radix et Rhizoma mainly has the warming-tonifying and warming-expulsing actions,and also exerts the warming-eliminating actions;Draconis Sanguis exerts eliminating,expulsing and tonifying actions simultaneously;Fermentum Rubrum mainly has the warming-tonifying and warming-eliminating actions,and also exerts the warming-expulsing actions.In clinical practice,the application of Chiqilin Powder in the treatment of AS patients with yang deficiency and phlegm blended with blood stasis syndrome has achieved remarkable therapeutic effects,which will provide reference for the clinical use of Chinese herbal medicine in the treatment of AS.

Objective To investigate the comparative neuroprotective effects of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells(hUC-MSCs-Exos)administered via different routes on hypoxic ischemic brain damage(HIBD)in neonatal mice.Methods Healthy one-week-old SPF-grade BALB/c mice were randomly divided into 4 groups:sham operation group(n=6),model group(n=6),exosome group 1(n=8),exosome group 2(n=8).HIBD was induced using the Rice-Vannucci method.Exosome group 1 and Exosome group 2 were intraperitoneal injection/intranasal drip of phosphate buffer(PBS)100 μl containing 10 μl exosomes within 24 h after successful modeling,respectively.Sham operation and model groups were intraperitoneal injection of PBS 100 μl.On the 7th day after the intervention,neuromotor function was assessed using the horizontal grid test and pole climbing test.On the 2nd day after the evaluation,all mice were killed and their brains were removed by decapitation.HE staining was used to observe the pathological injury of brain tissue,toluidine blue staining was used to observe the survival of neurons in cerebral cortex,and TUNEL staining was used to observe the apoptosis of cerebral cortex cells.Results Compared with sham operation group,model group,exosome group 1 and exosome group 2 exhibited increased hind limb drops in horizontal grid test and climbing scores(P<0.05).No significant difference was found in model group,exosome group 1 and exosome group 2 in these measures(P<0.05).Significant pathology was observed in model group,exosome group 1 and exosome group 2 compared to sham operation group(P<0.05),with significantly reduced damage in exosome group 1 and exosome group 2 compared to model group(P<0.05).Compared with sham operation group,Nissl body count was lower in model group and exosome group 1 and exosome group 2,with a higher count in exosome group 2 compared to exosome group 1(P<0.05).Compared with sham operation group,apoptotic cells were higher in model group and exosome group 1 and exosome group 2,with a significant reduction in exosome group 1 and exosome group 2 compared to model group,and the lowest in exosome group 2(P<0.05).Conclusions hUC-MSCs-Exos can improve the neuronal motor function,promote neuron repair and inhibit apoptosis in HIBD mice.Intranasal administration of hUC-MSCs-Exos is more effective than intraperitoneal administration for reducing neuronal apoptosis in HIBP neonatal mice,offering a convenient and rapid method suitable for clinical application.

Objective To investigate the effect of total paeony glycoside(TPG)on airway remodeling in bronchial asthma mice and its underlying mechanisms.Methods Forty-eight BALB/c mice were randomly divided into control group,model group,ovalbumin+budesonide group(OVA+BUD group),and OVA+TPG group,with 12 mice in each group.Except the control group,mice in other groups were sensitized by intraperitoneal injection of 10%OVA aluminum hydroxide suspension,and then stimulated by atomized inhalation of 1%OVA to establish mouse asthma model.One hour before each inhalation of OVA,mice in OVA+BUD group were atomized with 2 ml BUD suspension,and mice in OVA+TPG group were given 5 g/kg TPG by intragastric administration.Lung tissues and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF)of mice from each group were collected,and the pathological morphology of the lung tissues was detected by hematoxylin-eosin(HE)and periodic acid schiff(PAS)staining.Inflammatory cell counts[white blood cell(WBC),neutrophil(NEU),eosinophils(EOS),and leukomonocyte(LYM)]in BALF were detected by Wright-giemsa staining.The contents of inflammatory factors including tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),interleukin-1β(IL-1β)and IL-6 in BALF were determined by ELISA.Airway remodeling proteins[fibronectin,α-smooth muscle actin(α-SMA),collagen Ⅰ]and NOD-like receptor protein 3(NLRP3)inflammasome-related proteins[NLRP3,cleaved caspase-1,apoptosis-associated speck-like protein(ASC)]levels were detected by Western blotting.Human bronchial smooth muscle cells(HBSMCs)were divided into control group(normal culture),transforming growth factor(TGF)-β1 group(culture medium containing 10 ng/ml TGF-β1),and TGF-β1+TPG group(culture medium containing 10 ng/ml TGF-β1 and 50 μg/ml TPG).Cell proliferation was detected by CCK-8 method,and Western blotting was used to detect the expression of airway remodeling proteins and NLRP3 inflammasome-related proteins.Results Compared with control group,model group exhibited increased infiltration of inflammatory cell in lung tissues,mucosal epithelium hyperplasia,narrowed bronchial lumen narrowed,tube wall thickened,increased cup cells and mucus secretion,and an elevated pathological score of lung injury(P<0.05);the number of inflammatory cells(WBC,NEU,EOS,and LYM)and the levels of inflammatory factors(TNF-α,IL-1β,and IL-6)in BALF were increased(P<0.05),and the expressions of fibronectin,α-SMA,collagen Ⅰ,NLRP3,cleaved caspase-1 and ASC were elevated(P<0.05).Compared with model group,BUD or TPG treatment effectively reduced asthma symptoms,improved lung histopathology injury,inhibited bronchial wall thickening,significantly reduced the number of inflammatory cells(WBC,NEU,EOS,and LYM)and the content of inflammatory factors(TNF-α,IL-1β,and IL-6)in BALF,and inhibited expression of fibronectin,α-SMA,collagen Ⅰ,NLRP3,cleaved caspase-1 and ASC(P<0.05).Compared with control group,the proliferation rate of HBSMCs was increased,and the protein expression levels of fibronectin,α-SMA,collagen Ⅰ,NLRP3,cleaved caspase-1 and ASC were increased in TGF-β1 group(P<0.05).Compared with TGF-β1 group,TPG treatment decreased cell proliferation and inhibited the protein expression of fibronectin,α-SMA,collagen Ⅰ,NLRP3,cleaved caspase-1 and ASC(P<0.05).Conclusion TPG may alleviate airway remodeling and asthma symptoms by decreasing the expression of airway remodeling-related proteins,inhibiting NLRP3 inflammasome activation,and reducing the inflammatory response.

This consensus was developed by the Orthodontic Society of the Chinese Stomatological Association to provide a systematic, scientific, and practical guideline for informed consent in orthodontic care. Orthodontic treatment is typically lengthy, highly individualized, and involves multiple factors such as growth and development, occlusal function, and facial esthetics. Rapid technological advances and diverse risk profiles make the traditional reliance on orthodontist experience or institutional templates insufficient to ensure patients′ full understanding and autonomous decision-making. To address this, the expert panel conducted extensive reviews of domestic and international guidelines, analyzed representative dispute cases, and performed multicenter patient-clinician surveys. Using a multi-round Delphi method, the group established a standardized informed consent framework covering the initial consultation, treatment, and retention phases. The consensus emphasizes that informed consent is not only a fundamental legal and ethical requirement but also a key step in building trust, improving patient compliance, and enhancing treatment satisfaction. Orthodontists should clearly and comprehensively explain treatment plans, potential risks, uncertainties, and associated costs, while respecting the autonomy of patients or guardians, and maintain continuous communication and dynamic evaluation throughout the treatment process. The release of this consensus provides unified and authoritative guidance for clinical orthodontics, helping to standardize informed consent, enhance its transparency, safeguard patient rights, reduce medical risks, and promote high-quality, sustainable development of orthodontic practice.

The aim of this study is to explore the mechanism of apigenin against transmissible gas-troenteritis virus(TGEV)infection based on network pharmacology and molecular docking.The potential targets of apigenin were obtained from Pharmmapper,Pubchem and other databases.The PubMed database was searched to obtain the relevant targets of TGEV infection.The intersection targets of apigenin and TGEV infection were identified by Draw Venn Diagram online program.A"drug-disease-target"network was constructed using STRING database and Cytoscape 3.8.2 soft-ware.Protein-protein interaction relationships were obtained from the STRING database,and core targets were analyzed.The intersection targets were subjected to GO function and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis using the DAVID database.Finally,the analysis results were validated through molecular docking and in vitro cell experiments.The study identified 431 targets for apigenin,1 177 targets for TGEV infection,and 50 intersection targets for apigenin and TGEV infection.GO enrichment analysis indicated that apigenin was mainly involved in regulating cell differentiation,cell membrane raft formation,apoptosis,and inflammatory responses.The top 15 statistically sig-nificant KEGG enrichment results mainly involve the PI3K-Akt signaling pathway and TNF signa-ling pathway.Docking analysis showed that apigenin had the strongest interaction with matrix metalloproteinase 3(MMP3)with an affinity of-9.5 kJ/mol and the binding activity of MMP3 was the best.The results of in vitro experiments demonstrated that treatment of different concen-trations of apigenin significantly reduced virus titers,virus genome copies,and the expression lev-els of MMP3 and its upstream and downstream proteins compared to the virus-infected group.Api-genin may exert its anti-TGEV effects through multiple targets and pathways,possibly by regula-ting the NF-κB-MMP3-IL-1β signaling pathway.
