60Co-γ ray irradiation has the unique advantages of high efficiency, strong penetration, operation at room temperature and no residue, which has been widely used in the sterilization of Chinese medicinal materials, decoction pieces, Chinese patent medicine. However, the irradiation effect may cause changes in the content of chemical components in Chinese materia medica or the emergence of new radiolysis products, leading to reduced efficacy and uncontrollable safety risks. This paper reviewed the relevant literature at home and abroad, summarized the effect of irradiation sterilization on various types of chemical compositions of Chinese medicinal materials and their preparations, and analyzed and explored the rule of change. The results showed that the content changes of various chemical components in Chinese materia medica after 60Co-γ ray irradiation sterilization varied. The contents of most flavonoids, terpenoids, phenylpropanoids and quinones decreased after irradiation, and the degree of decrease increased with the elevated irradiation dose. The contents of lignans, alkaloids, isoflavones and some terpenoids did not change significantly before and after irradiation, while the content changes of triterpenoid saponins, dihydroflavonols, chalcones, sugars and glycosides after irradiation were not yet uniform. Therefore, it is recommended to pay attention to the compositional changes of irradiated Chinese medicines, strengthen the research on the standards of irradiated Chinese medicines, and standardize the irradiation and sterilization of Chinese medicines in order to promote the healthy and rational application of irradiated Chinese medicines.

7.The value of serum amyloid protein A in the early diagnosis of neonatal sepsis and necrotizing enterocolitis
Chinese Journal of Infection Control 2024;23(3):385-390
Early/late onset sepsis(EOS/LOS)and necrotizing enterocolitis(NEC)are common diseases during the neonatal period,with poor prognosis in severe cases.The early clinical manifestations are not specific,the diag-nosis is difficult,currently-used non-specific laboratory tests(C-reactive protein,procalcitonin,etc.)have disad-vantages,which may lead to missed diagnosis or misdiagnosis.Serum amyloid A(SAA)is a novel acute phase re-actant that increases significantly in the early stage of EOS/LOS and NEC,and lasts for a long time,it is related to the severity of the disease and can reflect the therapeutic effect,thus it can be used as a biomarker for diagnosis and treatment of these two diseases.This paper reviews SA A and its value in the early diagnosis of EOS/LOS and NEC,providing new references for the diagnosis and treatment of such diseases.

MXenese is a type of two-dimensional inorganic compound in materials science that is composed of transi-tion metal carbides,nitrides,or carbonitrides with several atomic layer thicknesses.Owing to the presence of hydroxyl groups or terminal oxygen groups on the surface of MXene materials,they exhibit metallic conductivity similar to that of transition metal carbides.Owing to their excellent optical,mechanical,electrothermal,and biocompatible properties,emerging 2D MXenes are widely used in biomedical fields such as tissue engineering,antimicrobial drugs,photothermal therapy,drug/gene delivery,sensing,and regenerative medicine.In this paper,we review the methods for synthesizing and modifying MXene-based composites,their research and application in stomatology,and their development prospects and challenges in the clinical application of tissue engineering.The biocompatibility and osteogenic properties of MX-ene and its nanocomposites have the potential to promote cell proliferation and bone regeneration.The anti-bacterial ad-hesion and biofilm formation properties can be applied to implant coating and prevent caries.The excellent photother-mal,conductive,and mechanical sensitivity of this agent make it suitable for drug delivery,bio-photothermal therapy,immune signal sensing,and gene detection.On this basis,MXene has recently achieved outstanding results in the fields of stomatology,including bone tissue engineering,antimicrobial,drug delivery,physical and mechanical enhancement of dental biomaterials,oral cancer treatment,and periodontal disease monitoring.However,research on the prevention and treatment of refractory oral diseases has not yet been reported.At present,the properties and surface modification of MXene-based nanomaterials are relatively well understood.Future studies should focus on the dose-dependent biosafety,cellular and molecular mechanisms,and signaling pathways of MXene to fully exploit its unique advantages in oral clini-cal and tissue engineering fields.

Objective To investigate the impact of exosomal miRNAs derived from endoplasmic reticulum-stressed(ERS)head and neck squamous cell carcinoma(HNSCC)cells on macrophages.Methods This study was reviewed and approved by the Ethics Committee.The expression levels of ERS-associated proteins,including protein kinase R-like endoplasmic reticulum kinase(PERK)and glucose-regulated protein 78(GRP78),in HNSCC tissues and para-tumor tissues were detected by Western blot(WB)and quantitative real-time PCR(RT-qPCR).HN4 human laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma cells were treated with 500 U/mL interferon-γ(IFN-γ)for 48 h to induce ER stress,and exo-somes secreted by ER-stressed HN4 cells were collected and identified.The types of miRNAs in exosomes were identi-fied through bioinformatics analysis,and the target genes of miRNAs were predicted.Macrophages were transfected with miRNA,co cultured with collected exosomes,and the expression of PTEN in macrophages was knocked down.The downstream signaling pathway regulated by exosomal miRNAs was studied by WB and RT-qPCR.Results Compared with that in para-tumor tissues,the expression level of ER stress-associated proteins in HNSCC tissues was increased(P<0.05).RNA-seq analysis revealed that miR-26a-5p was highly upregulated in ER-stressed HN4 cell-derived exo-somes(P<0.05).PTEN is the target gene for miR-26a-5p.miR-26a-5p increased the expression level of PD-L1 in mac-rophages and downregulated the expression of PTEN(P<0.05).Macrophages co cultured with ERS extracellular vesi-cles showed an increase in miR-26a-5p and PD-L1 expression,a decrease in PTEN expression,and an increase in p-AKT expression(P<0.05).Knock down the expression of PTEN in macrophages and increase the expression of PD-L1(P<0.01).Conclusion ERS HNSCC cell-derived exosomal miR-26a-5p promotes the expression of PD-L1 in macro-phages through the PTEN/AKT signaling pathway.
