Tuberculosis (TB), a chronic infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, is primarily airborne and remains a global health problem, especially in resource-limited countries and regions. The emergence of drug resistance in M. tuberculosis has rendered the existing means ineffective in the treatment of TB. Therefore, research in new therapeutic directions has become imperative. In this review, we outline functional peptides in terms of the mechanisms of action, anti-TB attempts, advantages and disadvantages, and latest advances, aiming to analyze the research progress in anti-TB peptides. Furthermore, we investigate the potential applications of bioactive compounds found in traditional Chinese Medicine within the context of peptides.

ObjectiveTo investigate the urate-lowering effect of Shenling Qushi prescription in the mouse model of hyperuricaemia. MethodsSixty-three C57BL/6N mice were randomly assigned to the following groups （n=9）： Control， model， low-dose （6 g·kg^-1） Shenling Qushi prescription， medium-dose （12 g·kg^-1） Shenling Qushi prescription， high-dose （24 g·kg^-1） Shenling Qushi prescription， medium-dose Shenling Qushi prescription plus febuxostat （12+0.003 g·kg^-1）， and febuxostat （3 mg·kg^-1）. A mouse model of persistent hyperuricaemia was established via intraperitoneal injection of potassium oxazolamide （250 mg·kg^-1） combined with oral administration of allopurinol （300 mg·kg^-1） over a 28-day period. Concurrently， the prescription was administered orally at the specified doses once daily for 21 consecutive days. Throughout the experiment， mouse body weight， food intake， water consumption， and urine output were measured and recorded. Kidney and liver indices were calculated. Renal histopathological changes were observed by haematoxylin and eosin staining. Serum uric acid （SUA） and urinary uric acid （UUA） levels， along with xanthine oxidase （XOD） and adenosine deaminase （ADA）， alanine aminotransferase （ALT） and aspartate aminotransferase （AST） activities， were determined. Real-time PCR was employed to assess the mRNA levels of urate anion transporter 1 （URAT1） and glucose transporter 9 （GLUT9） in the renal tissue， alongside those of XOD and ADA in the liver tissue. The protein levels of URAT1 and GLUT9 in the renal tissue were determined by Western blot. ResultsCompared with the normal group， model mice exhibited reduced food intake and body weight （P<0.01）， decreased water consumption yet increased urine output， no significant change in the liver index but increased kidney index （P<0.01）. Pathological findings revealed renal tissue damage including glomerular atrophy， epithelial cell detachment， and inflammatory cell infiltration. Furthermore， the model group exhibited elevated UUA and SUA levels （P<0.01）， enhanced activities of ALT， AST， XOD， and ADA in the liver tissue （P<0.05， P<0.01）， upregulated mRNA and protein levels of URAT1 and GLUT9 in the renal tissue （P<0.05）， alongside markedly elevated mRNA levels of XOD and ADA in the liver （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the Shenling Qushi prescription groups showed no significant changes in body weight or food intake， with water consumption and urine output remaining within normal ranges， alleviated glomerular atrophy， with reduced pathological damage such as inflammatory infiltration， declined UUA and SUA levels （P<0.01）， and increased activities of ALT， AST， XOD， and ADA in the serum （P<0.01）. Real-time PCR results demonstrated that Shenling Qushi prescription downregulated the mRNA levels of URAT1 and GLUT9 in the renal tissue （P<0.05， P<0.01） and XOD and ADA in the hepatic tissue （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Western blot results demonstrated Shenling Qushi prescription reduced the protein levels of URAT1 and GLUT9 （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionShenling Qushi prescription modulates fluid balance and reduces uric acid levels， thereby alleviating renal injury in hyperuricaemic mice. This effect is highly likely mediated through inhibition of uric acid synthesis and reabsorption.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of the combination of components from Tripterygii Radix et Rhizoma and Chuanxiong Rhizoma on rheumatoid arthritis fibroblast-like synoviocytes （RA-FLSs） and the underlying mechanism. MethodsRA-FLSs were grouped as follows： blank control， positive control （methotrexate）， Tripterygii Radix et Rhizoma components， Chuanxiong Rhizoma components， and components from Tripterygii Radix et Rhizoma+Chuanxiong Rhizoma. The cell-counting kit-8 （CCK-8） assay was employed to the cell proliferation， invasion， and apoptosis. The levels of tumor necrosis factor （TNF）-α， interleukin （IL）-6， reactive oxygen species （ROS）， and malondiadehyde （MDA） in cells were measured. Western blot was employed to determine the protein levels of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 （Nrf2）， heme oxygenase-1 （HO-1）， nuclear factor-kappa B （NF-κB） p65， phosphorylated inhibitory subunit of NF-κBα （p-IκBα）， cysteinyl aspartate-specific protease-3 （Caspase-3）， and B-cell lymphoma 2 （Bcl-2）. Real-time PCR was employed to determine the mRNA levels of Nrf2， HO-1， and NF-κB p65. ResultsThe cells in the groups of positive control， Tripterygii Radix et Rhizoma components， Chuanxiong Rhizoma components， and components from Tripterygii Radix et Rhizoma+Chuanxiong Rhizoma were treated with 2.50 mg·L^-1 methotrexate， 0.20 mg·L^-1 triptolide + 0.20 mg·L^-1 celastrol， 5.00 mg·L^-1 ferulic acid + 20.00 mg·L^-1 ligustrazine， 0.20 mg·L^-1 triptolide + 0.20 mg·L^-1 celastrol + 5.00 mg·L^-1 ferulic acid + 20.00 mg·L^-1 ligustrazine， respectively. Compared with the blank control group， drug administration reduced the proliferation and invasion and increased the apoptosis of cells （P<0.01）， lowered the levels of TNF-α， IL-6， ROS， and MDA （P<0.01）， up-regulated the mRNA and protein levels of Caspase-3， Nrf2， and HO-1 （P<0.01）， and down-regulated the mRNA and protein levels of Bcl-2， NF-κB p65， and p-IκBα （P<0.01）. Compared with the Tripterygii Radix et Rhizoma components group， the combination of components from Tripterygii Radix et Rhizoma+Chuanxiong Rhizoma inhibited the proliferation and invasion （P<0.05） and promoted the apoptosis of RA-FLSs， up-regulated the mRNA levels of Nrf2 and HO-1 and protein levels of Nrf2 and Caspase-3 （P<0.05）， and down-regulated the protein levels of NF-κB p65 and p-IκBα （P<0.05）. ConclusionThe combination of components from Chuanxiong Rhizoma and Tripterygii Radix et Rhizoma can inhibit the proliferation and invasion and promote the apoptosis of RA-FLSs and alleviate oxidative stress and inflammation by inhibiting the NF-κB signaling pathway， activating the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway， and regulating the expression of Bcl-2/Caspase-3.

Objective To develop an instrument for predicting postoperative constipation risks in patients with osteoporotic thoracolumbar fracture(OTLF)who have undergone percutaneous kyphoplasty(PKP).Methods A total of 858 OTLF patients who underwent PKP surgery between January 2020 and December 2024 were enrolled.The patients were randomly assigned to a training set(n=600)and a validation set(n=258)in a 7∶3 ratio.According to whether the patients had postoperative constipation,the training set was divided into a constipation group(n=205)and a non-constipation group(n=395),and the validation set was divided into a constipation group(n=90)and a non-constipation group(n=168).Logistic regression analysis was conducted to analyze the factors influencing postoperative constipation in OTLF patients after PKP,and a nomogram model was constructed accordingly.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve and the calibration curve of the model were plotted,and the Hosmer-Lemeshow test for goodness of fit was performed.Results A total of 205 OTLF patients(34.17%)in the training set and 90 OTLF patients(34.88%)in the validation set experienced constipation after PKP.Univariate analysis revealed significant differences between the constipation and non-constipation groups in terms of operative time,postoperative water intake,time to first postoperative meal,postoperative bed rest time,the levels of Bifidobacterium,Lactobacillus,Enterococcus,and Enterobacter,the Nutrition Risk Screening 2002(NRS-2002)score,and the levels of sodium,potassium,and HbA1c(P<0.05).Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator(LASSO)regression was performed and operative time,time to first postoperative meal,the levels of Bifidobacterium,Lactobacillus,Enterococcus,and Enterobacter,the NRS-2002 score,and the levels of sodium,potassium,and HbA1c were identified as candidate predictors.Multivariate logistic analysis showed that the time to first postoperative meal,the levels of Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus,the NRS-2002 score,and the levels of sodium and HbA1c were influencing factors of postoperative constipation in OTLF patients(P<0.05).The ROC curves showed that the area under the curve(AUC)of the training set was 0.842(95%CI:0.793-0.892),while that of the validation set was 0.860(95%CI:0.830-0.889).The calibration curves demonstrated good agreement between the prediction curve and the standard curve in both the training set and the validation set.Conclusion The time to the first postoperative meal,the NRS2002 score,and the levels of Bifidobacterium,Lactobacillus,sodium,and HbA1c are influencing factors of post-PKP constipation in OTLF patients.The nomogram model built based on these factors exhibited good predictive performance.

Objective To analyze the distribution of serum food specific immunoglobulin(Ig)E and IgG antibodies in patients with adverse food reactions in Qingdao area.Methods The specific IgE test results of 4 199 patients with suspected food allergy and the specific IgG test results of 741 patients with food intoler-ance were collected from the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University from 2012 to 2022.A total of 4 199 pa-tients with suspected food allergy(2 308 males and 1 891 females)were enrolled in this study.According to the age,the patients were divided into infancy(＜1 year old)205 cases,early childhood(1-＜3 years old)1009 cases,childhood(3-＜14 years old)1 946 cases,adolescence(14-＜18 years old)99 cases,youth(18-＜40 years old)554 cases,middle age(40-＜65 years old)329 cases and old age(≥65 years old)57 cases.A to-tal of 741 patients with food intolerance(469 males and 272 females)were enrolled in this study.According to the age,the patients were divided into 81 cases in infancy(＜1 year old),298 cases in early childhood(1-＜3 years old)and 362 cases in childhood(3-＜14 years old).Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to detect the positive rates of IgE and IgG antibodies in serum of patients,and the positive rates of IgE and IgG antibodies in patients with different gender and age were compared.Results Egg white and cow's milk were the most sensitive foods in infants and young children.The positive rate of specific IgE antibody decreased gradually with the increase of age,and increased slightly in old age.The positive rate of specific IgE antibody in shrimp and crab increased first and then decreased with age,and it was higher in young and middle age.The tolerance of infants and children to meat and crustaceans was relatively strong,and the positive rate of food specific IgG to fish was higher than that to meat(P＜0.05).The positive rate of tomato-specific IgG was the highest in infancy and gradually decreased with age(P＜0.05).Conclusion With the increase of age and the change of dietary structure,the positive rate of food specific IgG antibody may change significantly.Clinicians should accurately grasp the epidemiological characteristics of food adverse reactions in this area,and adjust and optimize the diet structure of patients to make correct diagnosis and treatment.
