OBJECTIVE To explore the pharmacokinetic characteristics of 3 blood-absorbed components of Xiangshao sanjie oral liquid in rats with hyperplasia of mammary gland （HMG）. METHODS Female SD rats were divided into control group and HMG group according to body weight， with 6 rats in each group. The HMG group was given estrogen+progesterone to construct HMG model. After modeling， two groups were given 1.485 g/kg of Xiangshao sanjie oral liquid （calculated by crude drug） intragastrically， once a day， for 7 consecutive days. Blood samples were collected before the first administration （0 h）， and at 5， 15， 30 minutes and 1， 2， 4， 8， 12， 24 hours after the last administration， respectively. Using chlorzoxazone as the internal standard， the plasma concentrations of ferulic acid， paeoniflorin and rosmarinic acid in rats were detected by UPLC-Q/TOF-MS. The pharmacokinetic parameters [area under the drug time curve （AUC0－24 h， AUC0－∞）， mean residence time （MRT0－∞）， half-life （t1/2）， peak time （tmax）， peak concentration （cmax）] were calculated by the non-atrioventricular model using Phoenix WinNonlin 8.1 software. RESULTS Compared with the control group， the AUC0－24 h， AUC0－∞ and cmax of ferulic acid in the HMG group were significantly increased （P＜0.05）； the AUC0－24 h， AUC0－∞ ， MRT0－∞ ， t1/2 and cmax of paeoniflorin increased， but there was no significant difference between 2 groups （P＞0.05）； the AUC0－24 h and MRT0-∞ of rosmarinic acid were significantly increased or prolonged （P＜0.05）. C ONCLUSIONS In HMG model rats， the exposure of ferulic acid， paeoniflorin and rosmarinic acid in Xiangshao sanjie oral liquid all increase， and the retention time of rosmarinic acid is significantly prolonged.

ObjectiveThis study aims to observe the effect of sinomenine （SIN） on fatty acid binding protein 4 （FABP4） in synovial tissue of rats with osteoarthritis （OA） and investigate the therapeutic mechanism of SIN on OA， further providing new ideas for the management of osteoarthritis by traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）. MethodsAn OA rat model was constructed and randomly divided into a control group， an OA group， an OA + SIN-L group （50 mg·kg^-1）， an OA + SIN-M （100 mg·kg^-1）， an OA + SIN-H （200 mg·kg^-1）， and an OA + prednisone （PDN） group （5 mg·kg^-1）. Following surgical modeling for three weeks， an appropriate medication was administered for four weeks. During modeling and administration， a hot plate test was performed to detect the pain and swelling of the knee joints of the rats. The periarticular tissue was collected for arthropathological observation at the end of drug administration. The expression of cleaved Caspase-3， B-cell lymphoma-2 （Bcl-2）， Bcl-2 associated X protein （Bax）， and FABP4 in the synovial tissue of rats was detected by Western blot and real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR）， and the expression and distribution of FABP4 protein in the synovial membrane were detected by immunofluorescence. ResultsCompared with those in the control group， the levels of inflammatory factors and FABP4 in the serum of rats in the OA group were significantly increased （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and joint swelling was significantly elevated （P<0.01）. The thermal pain threshold was significantly reduced （P<0.01）， and the expression of FABP4 protein and the fluorescence intensity were significantly increased （P<0.01）. The synovial tissue exhibited significantly increased inflammatory infiltration， proliferated fibroblasts， and an elevated apoptotic index （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Compared with those in the OA group， the serum lipid metabolism indexes of rats in the SIN administration group gradually returned to normal （P<0.05， P<0.01）， while the levels of inflammatory factors and FABP4 in the serum of rats in the SIN-administered group were significantly reduced （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and joint swelling was significantly decreased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The thermal pain threshold was significantly elevated （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and the expression of FABP4 protein and fluorescence intensity in the synovial tissue were significantly decreased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The synovial tissue displayed significantly reduced inflammatory infiltration and a decreased apoptotic index （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionThe therapeutic effect of SIN on OA may be related to the down-regulation of FABP4 expression， reduction of apoptosis， and inhibition of inflammatory factor expression.

Collagen-based materials, renowned for their biocompatibility and minimal immunogenicity, serve as exemplary substrates in a myriad of biomedical applications. Collagen-based micro/nanogels, in particular, are valued for their increased surface area, tunable degradation rates, and ability to facilitate targeted drug delivery, making them instrumental in advanced therapeutics and tissue engineering endeavors. Although extensive reviews on micro/nanogels exist, they tend to cover a wide range of biomaterials and lack a specific focus on collagen-based materials. The current review offers an in-depth look into the manufacturing technologies, drug release mechanisms, and biomedical applications of collagen-based micro/nanogels to address this gap. First, we provide an overview of the synthetic strategies that allow the precise control of the size, shape, and mechanical strength of these collagen-based micro/nanogels by controlling the degree of cross-linking of the materials. These properties are crucial for their performance in biomedical applications. We then highlight the environmental responsiveness of these collagen-based micro/nanogels, particularly their sensitivity to enzymes and pH, which enables controlled drug release under various pathological conditions. The discussion then expands to include their applications in cancer therapy, antimicrobial treatments, bone tissue repair, and imaging diagnosis, emphasizing their versatility and potential in these critical areas. The challenges and future perspectives of collagen-based micro/nanogels in the field are discussed at the end of the review, with an emphasis on the translation to clinical practice. This comprehensive review serves as a valuable resource for researchers, clinicians, and scientists alike, providing insights into the current state and future directions of collagen-based micro/nanogel research and development.

Objective:The clinical significance of aural fullness in patients with vestibular migraine（VM） remains unclear, and it is yet to be determined whether VM with aural fullness represents a distinct subtype of VM; this study aimed to compare differences in demographic characteristics, clinical manifestations, audiological findings, and vestibular function tests between VM patients with and without aural fullness, and explore whether the former is a subtype of VM and whether it requires differentiated treatment. Methods:A total of 174 VM patients were enrolled, including 75 with aural fullness（aural fullness group） and 99 without aural fullness（non-aural fullness group）; demographic data, vertigo characteristics, medical history, family history, pure-tone audiometry, and vestibular function tests were thoroughly recorded, and independent samples t-test and chi-square test were used for inter-group comparisons. Results:①Regarding demographic characteristics, the age of the aural fullness group was significantly lower than that of the non-aural fullness group[（44.08±13.97） years vs. （49.45±16.05） years, P=0.020）, while the two groups showed consistent gender distribution（more females than males） with no statistically significant difference. ②For aural fullness characteristics, unilateral aural fullness accounted for 65.0% in the aural fullness group, significantly higher than bilateral aural fullness（35.0%, P<0.001）. ③In terms of vertigo characteristics, there were no statistically significant inter-group differences in the nature of attacks（rotational vertigo: 36.0% vs. 41.4%, P=0.463; dizziness: 21.3% vs. 11.1%, P=0.064; rotational vertigo or dizziness: 29.3% vs. 25.3%, P=0.548; dizziness with unsteady gait: 9.3% vs. 11.1%, Fisher P=0.806; visual oscillation with unsteady gait: 4.0% vs. 11.1%, Fisher P=0.086）, duration（several hours: 34.7% vs. 33.3%, P=0.841; several minutes: 22.7% vs. 21.2%, P=0.808; several seconds: 5.3% vs. 8.1%, Fisher P=0.557; several days: 9.3% vs. 9.1%, Fisher P=1.000; multiple combined patterns: 17.3% vs. 15.2%, P=0.686）, or incidence of nausea and vomiting（84.0% vs. 72.7%, P=0.071, no statistical significance）. ④No statistically significant inter-group differences were found in medical history and family history, including motion sickness history（8.0% vs. 4.0%, Fisher P=0.337）, headache history（22.7% vs. 34.3%, P=0.084）, and family history of dizziness（12.0% vs. 14.1%, P=0.666）. ⑤For audiological characteristics, 21.3%（16/75） of patients in the aural fullness group had low-frequency hearing loss, significantly higher than 5.1% in the non-aural fullness group（χ²=10.66, P=0.001）; among patients with unilateral aural fullness, 28.6%（14/49） had ipsilateral low-frequency hearing loss, significantly higher than 7.7%（2/26） of those with bilateral aural fullness（χ²=4.41, P=0.036）; however, there was no statistically significant difference in the rate of bilateral high-frequency hearing loss between the two groups（54.7%[41/75]vs. 50.5%[50/99], χ²=0.30, P=0.586）. ⑥In vestibular function tests, no statistically significant inter-group differences were observed in smooth pursuit type Ⅲ/Ⅳ（12.5% vs. 13.1%, P=0.913）, caloric test with CP>25%（31.2% vs. 37.4%, P=0.411）, abnormal video head impulse test（vHIT） rate（30.8% vs. 32.6%, P=0.865）, or abnormal vestibular evoked myogenic potential（VEMP） rate（53.8% vs. 38.9%, Fisher P=0.484）. Conclusion:VM patients with aural fullness have an earlier age of onset, with nearly 1/4 accompanied by low-frequency hearing loss; VM patients with and without aural fullness are highly consistent in gender distribution, nature/duration of vertigo, vestibular function impairment, and presence of bilateral high-frequency hearing loss, suggesting that the core clinical phenotypes of the two groups are consistent, while the former has an earlier age of onset and a higher proportion of unilateral hearing loss, which may be related to the pathological mechanism of VM and inner ear microcirculation disorders.

Objective To reveal the molecular mechanism by which nuclear epidermal growth factor receptor(nEGFR)synergistically regulates the expression of cell migration-inducing protein(CEMIP)by forming a complex with the transcription factor Yin Yang 1(YY1),and to investigate the biological functions of the nEGFR-YY1-CEMIP signaling axis in invasion of hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).Methods After HCC cells were serum-starved for 24 h,the cells were treated with 100 ng/mL EGF.Thus,the cells were divided into a control group and EGF-treated groups at different time points.Nuclear expression and localization changes of EGFR were detected by Western blotting and immunofluorescence(IF).To investigate the interaction between nEGFR and YY1,their nuclear colocalization and interaction were examined by IF and co-immunoprecipitation(Co-IP),respectively.Transcriptional profiling was performed using RNA sequencing(RNA-seq)to identify differentially expressed genes at the genome-wide level.Combined with Gene Ontology(GO)functional enrichment analysis and transcription factor binding profiles via using the JASPAR database,CEMIP was identified as a candidate target gene.To validate the regulatory mechanism,the following experimental groups were established,Control,EGF,siYY1,and siYY1+EGF.The expression of CEMIP at protein and mRNA levels was detected by Western blotting and RT-qPCR.To elucidate the molecular mechanism of nEGFR/YY1 binding to the CEMIP promoter,the control and EGF-treated groups were established.Chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by quantitative PCR(ChIP-qPCR)was performed to assess the enrichment of nEGFR/YY1 at the CEMIP promoter region.Luciferase reporter assay was conducted following transfection with either wild-type EGFR(EGFR-WT),nuclear localization-deficient mutant(EGFR-dNLS),YY1 overexpression plasmid(YY1-OE),or dominant-negative YY1 mutant(YY1-DN)to evaluate changes in promoter activity.Subsequently,cell migration and invasion capabilities were evaluated using scratch wound healing assay and Transwell assay,while hyaluronic acid(HA)level was quantified by ELISA.The expression of matrix metalloproteinases(MMP2/9)was analyzed via Western blotting to assess the regulatory role of the nEGFR/YY1-CEMIP axis in the migration and invasion of HCC cells.By analyzing the CEMIP expression profiles in HCC patients from National Center for Biotechnology Information(NCBI)public databases,its potential association with tumor metastasis risk was validated.Results Western blotting and IF demonstrated that EGF treatment significantly induced nuclear translocation of EGFR,peaking at 30 min(P<0.001).Co-IP and IF assays indicated both physical interaction and nuclear co-localization between nEGFR and YY1.RNA-seq analysis identified CEMIP as a significantly differentially expressed gene.GO enrichment analysis revealed that CEMIP was significantly enriched in biological processes related to cell invasion promotion.JASPAR prediction identified conserved YY1 potential binding region within the CEMIP promoter region.Western blot and RT-qPCR analyses confirmed that EGF treatment up-regulated CEMIP at both protein and mRNA levels(P<0.05).Notably,YY1 knockdown significantly suppressed CEMIP expression,while exogenous EGF supplementation restored CEMIP level in YY1-deficient cells(P<0.05).ChIP-qPCR analysis demonstrated specific enrichment of the nEGFR/YY1 complex at the CEMIP promoter region,with EGF stimulation significantly enhancing its binding affinity(P<0.001).Luciferase reporter assay confirmed that nEGFR/YY1 robustly enhanced CEMIP promoter activity(P<0.01),while either the EGFR-dNLS or the YY1-DN substantially attenuated this transcriptional activation.Functional phenotyping showed that the nEGFR/YY1-CEMIP axis significantly enhanced the migration and invasion of HCC cells by promoting HA catabolism and up-regulating MMP2/9 expression(P<0.05).Analysis of NCBI datasets revealed that CEMIP expression was significantly up-regulated in HCC tumor tissues than adjacent normal tissues(P<0.001).Moreover,HCC patients with elevated CEMIP expression exhibited higher risk of metastasis(P<0.001).Conclusion nEGFR promotes HCC invasion by forming a transcriptional complex with YY1 to cooperatively activate CEMIP expression.

Objective To reveal the mechanism by which the programmed death-ligand 1(PD-L1)-protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B(PTP1B)-focal adhesion kinase(FAK)signaling axis promotes the progression of hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)and elucidate its effector functions in HCC.Methods GEPIA database was used to plot a 10-year survival curve for PD-L1 and FAK expression levels in HCC patients.Immunohistochemical(IHC)staining was utilized to analyze the relative expression levels of PD-L1 and FAK phosphorylated at the Y397 site[p-FAK(Y397)]in HCC tissues,and the results were compared to those in the adjacent non-tumor tissues.Subsequently,endogenous PD-L1 expression was detected with Western blotting in HCC cell lines with low(SNU-387)and high(Hep3B)PD-L1 expression levels.After lentivirus-transduced SNU-387PDL1+and Hep3BPDL1-cells were constructed,the effect of high and low expression of PD-L1 on the expression of p-FAK(Y397)with Western blotting.To elucidate the functional mechanism of FAK in HCC,functional rescue experiments were performed by administering a FAK inhibitor to SNU-387PDL1+cells and a FAK activator to Hep3BPDL1-cells,combined with wound healing scratch assay,Transwell invasion assay,EdU proliferation assay,and colony formation assay to evaluate tumor malignant effects.The GENEMANIA database predicted functional interactions between protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B(PTP1B),PD-L1,and FAK.IHC staining was performed to analyze the correlation among PD-L1,PTP1B,and p-FAK(Y397)expression.Co-immunoprecipitation(Co-IP)and indirect immunofluorescence(IF)were applied to validate the interaction between PD-L1 and PTP1B.Western blotting was utilized to confirm the regulatory relationship between PD-L1 and PTP1B.In vitro PTP1B phosphatase activity assay measured the changes in PTP1B activity.Subsequently,Western blotting was used to screen cell lines with high endogenous PTP1B expression(SNU-387)and low endogenous PTP1B expression(Hep3B).Furthermore,Hep3BPTP1B+and SNU-387PTP1B-cell lines were generated,and then p-FAK(Y397)levels were then detected in these modified cell lines,and the aforementioned functional effect assays(migration,invasion,proliferation and colony formation)and rescue experiments were repeated.Furthermore,Western blotting was employed to detect changes in downstream signaling pathways following enhancement or attenuation of p-FAK(Y397)in SNU-387 and Hep3B cells.Results IHC staining revealed a positive correlation between PD-L1 and p-FAK(Y397)expression in HCC tissues(95%CI:1.065～3.801,P<0.01).In SNU-387PDL1+cells,PD-L1 overexpression significantly enhanced phosphorylation at the FAK Y397 site(P<0.01)and increased cell migration,invasion,proliferation,and colony formation capabilities(P<0.01),and these effects could be reversed by FAK inhibitor treatment(P<0.05).Conversely,in Hep3BPDL1-cells,PD-L1 knockdown significantly reduced FAK Y397 phosphorylation(P<0.01)and decreased cell migration,invasion,proliferation,and colony formation abilities(P<0.01),and these effects were restored by FAK activator treatment(P<0.05).IHC staining further showed a negative correlation between PTP1B expression and both PD-L1 and p-FAK(Y397)in HCC tissues(95%CI:1.886～3.514,P<0.05).Co-IP and IF assays confirmed a direct interaction between PD-L1 and PTP1B,with PD-L1 suppressing PTP1B expression level and reducing its activity(P<0.01).In SNU-387PTP1B-cells,PTP1B knockdown significantly increased FAK Y397 phosphorylation(P<0.01)and enhanced cell migration,invasion,proliferation,and colony formation(P<0.01),and these effects were reversed by FAK inhibitor(P<0.05).While in Hep3BPTP1B+cells,PTP1B overexpression significantly decreased FAK Y397 phosphorylation(P<0.01)and reduced cell migration,invasion,proliferation,and colony formation(P<0.01),and those effects were restored by FAK activator treatment(P<0.05).Furthermore,enhanced phosphorylation at the FAK Y397 site in SNU-387 cells activated downstream PI3K/AKT and MEK/ERK signaling pathways(P<0.01),whereas inhibition of FAK(Y397)phosphorylation in Hep3B cells attenuated the activation of these signaling pathways(P<0.01).Conclusion PD-L1 activates FAK by suppressing PTP1B,thereby promoting migration,invasion,and proliferation in HCC.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics of sepsis-induced myocardial injury and microbial distribution.Methods:It was a retrospective observational study conducted from Jan 2023 to Dec 2023 in the Department of Emergency Intensive Care Medicine, Changshu Hospital Affiliated to Soochow University. Patients meeting the sepsis 3.0 criteria were included, excluding those with underlying cardiovascular diseases or incomplete data. Patients were categorized into myocardial injury (SIMI) and non-myocardial injury (Non-SIMI) groups based on troponin levels. General patient information, laboratory results, microbial findings, and prognostic indicators were collected. Differences in clinical parameters between the two groups were compared. Factors showing statistical differences in univariate analysis were further analyzed using multivariable logistic regression to identify risk factors for SIMI. Conduct propensity score matching among Pulmonary infection patients who underwent bronchoalveolar lavage high-throughput sequencing to compare microbial distribution between groups. Bracken was used to estimate species-level abundance from Kraken2 results, and α and β diversity analyses were conducted on the metagenomic samples.Results:A total of 179 patients were included in the study, with 98 (54.4%) in the Non-SIMI group and 81 (45.5%) in the SIMI group. There were 69 deaths overall (38.5%), with 23 (23.7%) in the Non-SIMI group and 46 (56.8%) in the SIMI group (χ 2=20.347, P<0.01). The 28-day survival curve indicated survival rates in the SIMI group were significantly lower compared to the Non-SIMI group (Log Rank χ 2=21.270, P<0.01). Univariate analysis revealed that fungal infection rate ( P=0.007), C-reactive protein ( P=0.021), procalcitonin, blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, alanine transaminase, and lactate levels were higher in the SIMI group compared to the Non-SIMI group (all P<0.01), prothrombin time was prolonger ( P<0.01) and APACHEⅡ scores were higher ( P<0.01), while serum albumin, base excess, and platelet levels were lower (all P<0.01). Multivariable logistic regression analysis indicated that fungal infection ( OR=3.441, P=0.015) was a risk factor for SIMI, whereas base excess and platelets were protective factors ( OR=0.845, 0.988, both P<0.01). Comparison of bronchoalveolar lavage high-throughput sequencing results in the pulmonary infection subgroup showed the relative abundance of Haemophilus paraininfluenzae in Non-SIMI group was higher than SIMI group among the top 20 species ( P=0.013). There were no statistically significant differences in microbial αand β-diversity between the two groups. Conclusions:The incidence of SIMI is relatively highamong sepsis patients and it affects their prognosis. Risk factors for SIMI include fungal infection, decreased platelet count, and reduced base excess levels. Among patients with pulmonary infections, there is a lower risk of SIMI associated with Haemophilus influenzae infection.

Objective To retrospectively analyze the efficacy and safety of low-dose antithymocyte globulin(ATG)combined with low-dose post transplantation cyclophosphamide(PTCY)in prevention of graft versus host disease(GVHD)after haploidentical transplantation.Methods Clinical data of 90 patients receiving haplotype matched transplantation in No.920 Hospital of PLA Joint Logistic Support Force from January 2022 to February 2023 were collected,and they were divided into study group(n=47)and control group(n=43)according to different GVHD prevention programs.The patients of the study group were given low-dose ATG combined with low-dose PTCY,and those of the control group received standard dose of PTCY.The implantation status,occurrence of GVHD,survival status and other indicators were analyzed between the 2 groups.Results ① Both groups of patients were successfully implanted,the median duration for neutrophil implantation(11 vs 17 d,P＜0.05)and platelet implantation(12 vs 20 d,P＜0.05)was significantly shorter in the study group than the control group.The incidence of grade Ⅱ～Ⅳ aGVHD(12.8％vs 34.9％,P＜0.05)and grade Ⅲ～Ⅳ aGVHD(6.4％ vs 20.9％,P＜0.05)was significantly lower in the study group than the control group,so was the non-recurrent mortality rate(6.4％vs 20.9％,P＜0.05)and the incidence of hemorrhagic cystitis(12.8％ vs 34.9％,P＜0.05).② By the end of the study,there were no significant differences in the incidence of mild and moderate and severe cGVHD,recurrence rate,reactivation rates of EBV and CMV,overall survival rate or progression-free survival rate between the 2 groups.Conclusion For haploidentical transplantation,low-dose ATG combined with low-dose PTCY has the advantages of lower incidence of GVHD,non-recurrent mortality,incidence of hemorrhagic cystitis and faster implantation.

Objective To preliminarily explore the efficacy of chimeric antigen receptor T cells(CAR-T)targeting CD 123 in the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia(AML)and the role of dasatinib in the treatment of CD123 targeting CAR-T induced side effects.Methods Clinical data of 1 patient with relapsed AML admitted to No.920 Hospital of PLA Joint Logistic Support Force in September,2019 were collected.The patient relapsed after previous multi-line chemotherapy and was treated with CD123 targeting CAR-T therapy.The routine blood changes of the patient after treatment were observed.Dasatinib was used when agranulocytosis occurred,40 mg orally 3 times per day,and was stopped when agranulocytosis was relieved.Changes in blood cells,CAR-T amplification,and disease control were observed.The patient was followed up for over 1 year.Results Flow cytometry for bone marrow showed that minimal residual disease negative result was observed in 30 d after infusion.The patient remained disease-free for over 1 year.After CD 123 CAR-T cells infusion,significant expansion of CAR-T cells was observed,accompanied by granulocyte deficiency and cytokine release syndrome(CRS).After using dasatinib,inhibition of CAR-T cell expansion was observed,accompanied by blood cell recovery,and CRS symptoms were alleviated.After stop of dasatinib,CAR-T cells expanded again and blood cells decreased again.Conclusion CAR-T cells targeting CD 123 have certain efficacy in the treatment for relapsed AML.Dashatinib has a blocking effect on the amplification and function of CAR-T,which can alleviate bone marrow suppression caused by CD 123 targeting CAR-T and avoid severe CRS.

Objective:To explore whether miR-372 can affect the proliferation, migration and apoptosis of renal clear cell carcinoma (ccRCC) cell under different expression conditions, and to study the effect of miR-372 on PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway.Methods:ccRCC cell line (786-O) and normal renal epithelial cell line (HK-2) were selected to detect the expression level of miR-372 in 786-O cell and HK-2 cell by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). The mimic group and negative control group were prepared by transfection with the mimic agent, and the inhibitor group and negative control group were prepared by transfection with the inhibitor.
