Studies on specific transient receptor potential melastatin 2 (TRPM2) channel inhibitors can deepen our understanding of the pathological mechanism of related diseases, and allow discovery of novel, effective targets and drugs for therapy. The development of TRPM2 channel inhibitors can be broadly classified into four categories with distinct characteristics: reutilization and structural modification of homologous ion channel modulators to produce a diverse array of TRPM2 channel inhibitors with strong inhibitory effects; TRPM2 channel inhibitors based on channel gating mechanism with high specificity; inhibitors identified through high-throughput screening with novel chemical structures; inhibitors developed from natural antioxidants with higher safety. In recent years, the application of computer-aided drug design has significantly accelerated the development of TRPM2 channel inhibitors. Several promising compounds such as ZA18, A1 and D9 have been discovered, and it is expected that more potent and selective TRPM2 channel inhibitor scaffolds will be discovered in the future. This article reviews the advances on the studies of TRPM2 channel inhibitors, aiming to provide insights for further research and clinical application of TRPM2 channel inhibitors.

CRISPR/Cas9-based therapeutics face significant challenges in penetrating the dense microenvironment of solid tumors, resulting in insufficient gene editing and compromised treatment efficacy. Current nanostrategies, which mainly focus on the paracellular pathway attempted to improve gene editing performance, whereas their efficiency remains uneven in the heterogenous extracellular matrix. Here, the nanoCRISPR system is prepared with self-cascading mechanisms for gene editing-mediated robust apoptosis and transcellular penetration. NanoCRISPR unlocks its self-cascade capability within the matrix metallopeptidase 2-enriched tumor microenvironment, initiating the transcellular penetration. By facilitating cellular uptake, nanoCRISPR triggers robust apoptosis in edited malignancies, promoting further transcellular penetration and amplifying gene editing in neighboring tumor cells. Benefiting from self-cascade between robust apoptosis and transcellular penetration, nanoCRISPR demonstrates continuous gene transfection/tumor killing performance (transfection/apoptosis efficiency: 1st round: 85%/84.2%; 2nd round: 48%/27%) and homogeneous penetration. In xenograft tumor-bearing mice, nanoCRISPR treatment achieves remarkable anti-tumor efficacy (∼83%) and significant survival benefits with minimal toxicity. This strategy presents a promising paradigm emphasizing transcellular penetration to enhance the effectiveness of CRISPR-based antitumor therapeutics.

Objective To explore the different latent class and characteristics of the cognitive ability level of undergraduate nursing students in hospice care based on the individual-centered perspective,and analyze its influencing factors to provide the reference for the formulation of targeted nursing education.Methods Nursing students in a medical university in Yunnan Province were selected from March 2023 to June 2023.The general data questionnaire and hospice care knowledge questionnaire were used to conduct a cross-sectional survey.SPSS and Mplus were used for the data analysis.Results Three latent class of hospice care cognitive ability were identified,which were named as hospice care high cognitive ability group,general cognitive ability group,and low cognitive ability group,accounting for 28.74%,57.29%,and 13.97%,respectively;Nursing students'gender,nationality,place of residence,earning and practice experience of hospice care(whether they had the contact with end-stage cancer patients,whether they had received the hospice care related training),and whether they were willing to engage in the hospice care related work were the influencing factors of different potential categories of cognitive ability of hospice care among nursing students(P<0.05).Conclusion There are three latent class of hospice care cognitive ability of nursing students.Male minority nursing students who have not been exposed to end-stage cancer patients and have not received the hospice care-related training,are unwilling to engage in the hospice care-related work.Male ethnic minority nursing students residing in rural areas have the weaker cognitive levels of hospice care.Scholars in the future can formulate targeted training strategies according to different latent class of hospice care cognitive ability to improve nursing students'hospice care cognitive ability and reserve talents for hospice care teams.

Objective To investigate the research status and the research hotspots on male nurses at home and abroad in last decade,so as to provide references for further research in male nurses.Methods Literature between 2013 and 2024 on male nurses were retrieved from the Web of Science(WOS)and CNKI.CiteSpace 6.2.6 R7 software was used to analyse the volume of publication,keyword co-occurrence,keyword clustering and emergence.Results A total of 736 articles were included in the study.From 2013 to 2023,the number of published papers of male nurses in CNKI and WOS showed an increasing trend.The research was primarily affiliated with 263 institutions across 62 countries.The country with the highest volume of publication is China,followed by the United States,although there was a need to enhance collaboration with other nations.The institution with the most publications is the Hong Kong Polytechnic University.A comprehensive analysis of keyword co-occurrence,clustering,and emerging trends revealed that the research hotspots in the field of male nursing in CNKI mainly includes the advantages of male nurses,psychological capital,humanistic care,development,needs,professional identification.Whereas WOS focuses on the topics such as gender bias against male nurses,mental health,workplace violence,ambivalent sexism,motivational barriers,individual differences,societal prejudice and knowledge and attitucle.Both domestic and international research on male nurses primarily consist of cross-sectional surveys and qualitative studies,with fewer intervention studies.Currently,the researches regarding male nursing focus on the qualitative study of mental health of male nurses.Conclusion Focusing on the mental health and professional status of male nurses,domestic scholars need to increase the formulation and implementation of interventions in this field in order to address the practical issues faced by male nurses,therefore to promote the comprehensive development of the nursing profession,enhance the overall quality and service quality of the nursing team,and provide patients with higher quality in nursing services.

The "pre-disease" theory of traditional Chinese medicine focuses on the dynamic and continuous evolution from health to disease, and emphasizes early identification and intervention in the complex and gradual process of evolution from health to disease. The "pre-disease" theory and complexity science share the same perspective on health and disease from the standpoint of features of the dynamic evolution and holism, i. e., life is considered as a complex system with ongoing dynamic changes, which exhibit the nonlinear features of " homeostasis-destabilization-phase transition-another homeostasis". In this paper, from the perspective of nonlinear dynamics in complexity science, we explain the scientific connotation of the evolution law of "pre-disease"-disease based on the theory of critical slowing down in traditional Chinese medicine. Based on the theory of critical slowing down and the dynamic network biomarker method generated by its development, combined with the macro signs of comprehensive analysis of data gained by four diagnostic method and the micro features including transcriptomics and the microbiomics, this paper proposes to integrate macro and micro multi-hierarchy information to construct a "pre-disease" critical slowing down identification model with the characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine diagnosis and treatment, which provides a new perspective and method for the early warning of complex diseases.

Objective To investigate the expression of Nanog and its regulatory relationship with MMP-2/MMP-9 proteins in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma(ESCC).Methods We detected Nanog and MMP-2/MMP-9 protein expressions in 127 ESCC tissues and 82 adjacent normal tissues using immunohistochemistry and explored their correlations with the clinicopathological parameters and prognosis of the patients.GEO database was utilized to analyze the pathways enriched with the stemness-related molecules including Nanog,and TIMER online tool was used to analyze the correlations among TβR1,MMP-2,and MMP-9 in esophageal cancer.Results Nanog and MMP-2/MMP-9 proteins were significantly upregulated in ESCC tissues and positively intercorrelated.Their expression levels were closely correlated with infiltration depth and lymph node metastasis of ESCC but not with age,gender,or tumor differentiation.The patients with high expressions of Nanog and MMP-2/MMP-9 had significantly shorter survival time.Bioinformatics analysis showed enrichment of stemness-associated molecules in the TGF-β signaling pathway,and the expressions of MMP-2/MMP-9 and TβR1 were positively correlated.In cultured ESCC cells,Nanog knockdown significantly decreased the expression of TβR1,p-Smad2/3,MMP-2,and MMP-9 and strongly inhibited cell migration.Conclusion The high expressions of Nanog,MMP-2,and MMP-9,which are positively correlated,are closely related with invasion depth,lymph node metastasis,and prognosis of ESCC.Nanog regulates the expressions of MMP-2/MMP-9 proteins through the TGF-β signaling pathway,and its high expression promotes migration of ESCC cells.

Objective To compare the efficacy and safety of endoscopic ligation treatment and endoscopic tissue glue injection for secondary prevention of gastric variceal bleeding.Methods Patients with cirrhosis and esophagogastric variceal bleeding treated with gastric variceal ligation in Zhongshan Hospital,Fudan University,from January 2017 to December 2019 were screened(ligation group).And during the same period,patients underwent endoscopic cyanoacrylate treatment were also screened(tissue glue group).59 patients were included in the two groups after propensity score matching.Univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression models were used to anslyze risk factors for re-bleeding.Kaplan-Meier curves were plotted to analyze re-bleeding rate and mortality of the two treatment groups.Results There was no statistically significant difference in the eradication rate of esophagogastric varices between the ligation group and the tissue glue group(83.05％vs 79.66％,P=0.778);the ligation group required fewer median endoscopic treatments for variceal eradication(2 vs 3,P=0.017)and a lower average dosage of cyanoacrylate(0.70 mL vs 2.67 mL,P＜0.001).Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that portal shunt was a risk factor for esophagogastric varices re-bleeding(HR=3.14,95％CI 1.02-9.68,P=0.046),endoscopic variceal ligation was a protective factor against re-bleeding(HR=0.25,95％CI 0.08-0.71,P=0.010).Compared with endoscopic cyanoacrylate injection,endoscopic ligation treatment did not significantly increase the 2-year risk of esophagogastric variceal re-bleeding(18.69％vs 36.29％,P=0.067)or risk of death(1.69％vs 3.39％,P=1.000);patients with GOV1 type had a significantly lower risk of re-bleeding after endoscopic ligation treatment(0 vs 40.27％,P=0.012)and there was a trend towards a lower re-bleeding risk in patients with GOV2 type after endoscopic ligation treatment(13.27％vs 34.16％,P=0.056).Conclusions Endoscopic ligation treatment has higher eradication rate for esophagogastric varices,and does not increase the risk of re-bleeding,death,or other adverse events.Therefore,it can be considered an effective secondary prevention way for patients with gastric varices.
