Objective: To present the plotting of trend analysis charts and the application of multi-rule trend analysis method for monitoring the quality of whole blood, washed red blood cells, and leukocyte-depleted suspended red blood cells. Methods: Samples of whole blood, washed red blood cells, and leukocyte-depleted suspended red blood cells were collected in accordance with relevant protocols and requirements. The results of blood quality testing were compiled. The trend line charts were plotted for the deviation rates of volume, hemoglobin (Hb) content, supernatant protein content, and leukocyte residual count. In addition, the trend line chart were plotted for hematocrit and post-storage hemolysis rate. Results: The trend analysis rules for the deviation rate of volume from the standard were: 1 categorized as out-of-control, (3 of 4) as warning, R as warning, 8 as alert, and 12 as alert. For Hb content deviation rate, the rules were: <0% categorized as out-of-control; <20% but ≥0% (for whole blood) or <10% but ≥0% (for washed red blood cells and leukocyte-depleted suspended red blood cells) as a warning. For supernatant protein content deviation rate, the rules were: ≥0.0% as out-of-control, and >-10% but <0.0% as a warning. For hematocrit, the rules were: 1 as out-of-control and (3 of 4) as warning. For leukocyte residual count deviation rate, the rules were: >0.0% as out-of-control, and >-10% but ≤0.0% as a warning. For post-storage hemolysis rate, the rule was: ≥0.8% out-of-control. Conclusion: The application of multi-rule trend analysis facilitates the timely identification of trend abnormalities and factors causing deviations in the collection and preparation processes of whole blood, washed red blood cells, and leukocyte-depleted suspended red blood cells, thereby providing reliable numerical evidence for their correction and adjustment.

Objective To explore the molecular mechanism by which SOS Ras/Rac guanine nucleotide exchange factor 1-intronic transcript 1(SOS1-IT1)affects enhancer of zeste homolog 2(EZH2)protein expression in endometrial cancer cells Ishikawa and RL95-2.Methods Lentiviral transfection of short hairpin RNA(shRNA)and overexpression plasmid were used in Ishikawa and RL95-2 cell lines to knock down and overexpress SOS1-IT1.The mechanism of EZH2 expression regulation was studied using Real-time PCR,Western blotting,and chromatin immunoprecipitation.Results The expression of SOS1-IT1 and EZH2 genes was positively correlated in endometrial cancer tissues.Knocking down SOS1-IT1 significantly reduces the expression of EZH2,inhibited the proliferation and migration of Ishikawa and RL95-2 cells,and could reduced the acetylation of histone H3 at position 27(H3K27)and the enrichment of CREB binding protein(CBP)in the EZH2 gene promoter region.Overexpression of SOS1-IT1 could increased the expression of EZH2 and enhance the acetylation of H3K27 and the enrichment of CBP.CBP could bind to SOS1-IT1 RNA,and this binding ability was weakened when CBP was knocked down.Conclusion SOS1-IT1 can promote the expression level of EZH2 in endometrial cancer cells Ishikawa and RL95-2 by regulating the acetylation modification level of the EZH2 gene promoter region,thereby affecting the proliferation and migration ability of endometrial cancer cells.

Objective:To compare the efficacy and safety of LY01011,a recombinant anti-RANKL fully human monoclonal antibody injection,versus denosumab in the treatment of bone metastases from solid tumors.Methods:A randomized,double-blind,positive drug parallel-controlled,multicenter clinical trial was conducted.A total of 850 subjects were randomly assigned(1:1)to either the experimental group(424 subjects)or the control group(426 subjects).The experimental group received 13 doses of LY01011,while the control group received 3 doses of denosumab followed by 10 doses of LY01011.Results:The primary efficacy endpoint was the natural logarithmic change from baseline in urinary N-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen corrected by urinary creatinine(uNTX/uCr)at week 13.The change was-1.740(0.042 0)in the experimental group and-1.745(0.042 1)in the control group.The least-squares mean difference between groups was 0.005(90%CI:-0.088 to 0.097),indicating no statistically significant difference(P>0.05).Safety profiles,including treatment-emergent adverse events,laboratory tests,vital signs,physical examinations,and electrocardiograms,were comparable between groups(P>0.05).Conclusions:LY01011 demonstrated biosimilarity to denosumab,with favorable safety profile,tolerability,and potential for clinical application.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics of the Chikungunya fever outbreak in Shunde District, Foshan City, Guangdong Province in July 2025 and the risk factors associated with delayed viral RNA clearance.Methods:A total of 562 patients with Chikungunya fever admitted to three designated hospitals in Shunde District from July 10 to 30, 2025 were enrolled. Demographic data, clinical manifestations, and laboratory findings were collected. Patients were categorized into four age groups including minors (<18 years), young adults (18 to 39 years), middle-aged adults (40 to 64 years) and elderly adults (≥65 years). The differences of clinical characteristics among these age groups were analyzed. Intergroup comparisons were performed using chi-square test, one-way analysis of variance, or Kruskal-Wallis H test. Pairwise comparisons between groups were conducted using the Bonferroni or Games-Howell or Dunn method. Binary logistic regression was employed to analyze risk factors associated with delayed viral RNA clearance (>7 days). Results:The mean age of the 562 enrolled Chikungunya fever patients was (44.8±21.3) years. Fever, arthralgia and rash were the three core symptoms, with incidence rates of 87.5% (492/562), 88.4%(497/562) and 69.6%(391/562), respectively. At discharge, only 54.1%(304/562) of patients achieved complete symptom resolution, while 26.5%(149/562) still had arthralgia and 36.1%(203/562) had residual rash. Significant differences were observed among age groups in the incidence of fever ( χ2=9.43, P=0.024), peak body temperature ( F=6.54, P<0.001), incidence of arthralgia ( χ2=26.89, P<0.001), duration of arthralgia ( F=12.68, P=0.001), incidence of rash ( χ2=68.99, P<0.001), rate of residual rash at discharge ( χ2=32.37, P<0.001), lymphocyte count ( F=12.94, P<0.001), platelet count ( F=14.95, P<0.001), and C-reactive protein levels (CRP) ( H=94.18, P<0.001). Further pairwise comparisons revealed that compared to the middle-aged and elderly groups, the minor group had a higher incidence of fever and a lower incidence of arthralgia, and the duration of arthralgia was shorter than the elderly group (all P<0.008 3). Compared with the other three groups, the elderly group had lower incidence and residual rate of rash, and lower platelet counts (all P<0.008 3), and higher levels of CRP (all P<0.05). The elderly group had lower lymphocyte counts compared to the minor and young adult groups (both P<0.05). Significant differences were found among age groups in the time to viral RNA clearance ( F=5.77, P=0.003) and length of hospital stay ( F=11.64, P<0.001), with the elderly group having significantly longer duration for both compared to the other three groups (all P<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that advanced age (odds ratio ( OR)=1.049, 95% confidence interval ( CI) 1.015 to 1.083), longer duration of fever ( OR=1.529, 95% CI 1.086 to 2.155) and longer duration of arthralgia ( OR=1.927, 95% CI 1.318 to 2.817) were independent risk factors for delayed viral RNA clearance (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Patients with Chikungunya fever in Shunde District primarily present with fever, arthralgia and rash. The incidence and characteristics of these three core symptoms show age-related variations. Elderly patients and those with longer durations of fever or arthralgia are more likely to experience delayed viral clearance.

Aim To reveal the mechanism of CIP4 homologs protein 1(RICH1)are involved in the regu-lation of myocardial fibrosis.Methods Mouse cardiac fibroblasts(MCFs)cells were treated with transforming growth factor-β(TGF-β1)to induce the formation of a myocardial fibrosis cell model;the level of the target protein was detected by Western blotting;and the RICH1 gene was detected by transfection of the cells with plasmid.The RICH1 gene was overexpressed(RICH 1 OE)using plasmid transfection;the RICH1 gene was silenced using siRNA fragment(siRICH1);and the expression levels of myocardial fibrosis marker genes,such as Col1 a1,Col3 a1,and Acta2,were de-tected using RT-qPCR.Results RICH1 was signifi-cantly down-regulated in TGF-β1-treated MCFs;the expression levels of myocardial fibrosis marker genes,such as Col1 a1,Col3a1,and Acta2,were down-regu-lated in the RICH1 OE+TGF-β1 group;and in the siRICH1+TGF-β1 group,myocardial fibrosis marker genes,such as Col1 a1,Col3a1 and Acta2 were up-regulated at the expression level;phosphorylated SMAD2(p-SMAD2)and phosphorylated SMAD3(p-SMAD3)levels were down-regulated in the siRICH1 OE+TGF-β1 group.p-SMAD2 and P-SMAD3 levels were upregulated in the siRICH1+TGF-β1 group.Conclusion RICH1 inhibits TGF-β1-induced myo-cardial fibrosis;RICH1 inhibits TGF-β1-induced myo-cardial fibrosis by negatively regulating the SMAD2/3 signaling pathway.

High-performance phototheranostics with combined photothermal therapy and photoacoustic imaging have been considered promising approaches for efficient cancer diagnosis and treatment. However, developing phototheranostic materials with efficient photothermal conversion efficiency (PCE), especially over the second near-infrared window (NIR-II, 1000-1700 nm), remains challenging. Herein, we report an ultraefficient NIR-II-activated nanomedicine with phototheranostic and vaccination capability for highly efficient in vivo tumor elimination and metastasis inhibition. The NIR-II nanomedicine of a semiconducting biradical oligomer with a motor-flexible design was demonstrated with a record-breaking PCE of 87% upon NIR-II excitation. This nanomedicine inherently features extraordinary photothermal stability, good biocompatibility, and excellent photoacoustic performance, contributing to high-contrast photoacoustic imaging in living mice and high-performance photothermal elimination of tumors. Moreover, a whole-cell vaccine based on a NIR-II nanomedicine with NIR-II-activated performance was further designed to remotely activate the antitumor immunologic memory and effectively inhibit tumor occurrence and metastasis in vivo, with good biosafety. Thus, this work paves a new avenue for designing NIR-II active semiconducting biradical materials as a promising theranostics platform and further promotes the development of NIR-II nanomedicine for personalized cancer treatment.

Aim To identify the underlying target of bullatine A(BA)against rheumatoid arthritis(RA)u-sing limited proteolysis-small molecule mapping(LiP-SMap)drug target proteomics and to provide a scientif-ic basis for clinical application of Aconiti brachypodi Radix in the treatment of RA.Methods LiP-SMap drug target proteomics was employed to perform bioin-formatics analysis for comparing and validating the dif-ferential protein expression after BA intervention.A collagen-induced arthritis(CIA)model was estab-lished in DBA/1 mice using bovine type Ⅱ collagen.The mice were then divided into the CIA model group,methotrexate-positive control group(MTX group),and BA groups(10 mg·kg-1 and 20 mg·kg-1)based on their clinical scores.After drug intervention,the thera-peutic efficacy against RA was assessed by joint index scores and foot thickness measurements.Histopatholog-ical changes in the arthritic joints of CIA mice were e-valuated using hematoxylin and eosin(HE)staining.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was employed to detect inflammatory cytokines interleukin-17(IL-17)and total IgG and IgG3 anti-collagen-spe-cific antibodies levels from the serum of CIA mice.Flow cytometry was used to detect the expression levels of intracellular Th17 cells(IL-17+CD4+T cells)and Th1 cells(IFN-γ+CD4+T cells).Fluorescent quanti-tative PCR was performed to detect the expression of genes related to differential proteins.Results The proteomic analysis identified Serpinb1a as a protein with strong binding affinity to BA,and KEGG enrich-ment analysis indicated IL-17 signaling pathway was a crucial pathway of BA in against RA.BA treatment significantly reduced clinical scores and foot thickness,improved local arthritis symptoms in CIA mice,and al-leviated inflammatory cell infiltration into arthritic joints(P＜0.05).Differential protein validation re-sults showed that BA had strong affinity with Serpinb1a(-5.92 kJ·mol-1)and downregulated the expres-sion of Serpinb1a mRNA.Furthermore,the administra-tion of BA markedly reduced serum IL-17 A levels from CIA mice,inhibited the expression of intracellular IL-17 A and IFN-γ cytokines in splenic CD4+T cells(P＜0.05),and significantly downregulated the transcrip-tional expression of IL-17F(P＜0.05).Conclusion BA exhibits therapeutic effects on collagen-induced arthritis,and its mechanism of action may involve the regulation of Serpinb1a and the IL-17 signaling path-way.

In this study,we aim to evaluate the immunogenicity of the whole-cell proteins isolated from Mycobacterium marinum(MM).The findings of this research may provide scientific basis for the development of new candidate tuberculosis vaccines.Both MM 95014 and Mycobacteriumtuberculosis(MTB)H37Rv cells were routinely cultured and collected.After inactivation,whole-cell proteins were extracted by low-temperature ultrasonic fragmentation and mixed with DDA/Poly:IC adjuvant.The mixture was administered to BALB/c mice subcutaneously with 50 mg/mouse twice with an interval of 10 days.Blood sample was collected before each immunization,as well as 10 days after the last immunization.Blood samples and spleen tissue extracts were measured for serum antibody potency and cytokine levels by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.An in vitro growth inhibition assay(MGIA)was used to assess the ability of mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages,collected after immunization with MM whole-cell proteins,to inhibit MTB growth.A MTB whole mycobacterium proteome microarray was applied to analyze the interaction between the serum in MM immunization group and MTB proteins.Our results indicated that,compared with the adjuvant group,MM whole-cell proteins induced higher levels of Th1 cytokines(IL-2,IFN-γ,IL-12,TNF-α)in the mice.The IgG and IgM antibody titers induced by MM immunization group reached 1∶608 874 and 1∶304 437,respectively.The MGIA results showed that the MM immunization group was able to significantly inhibit MTB growth in vitro.The MTB proteome microarray results indicated that there were 226 and 324 cross-proteins with IgG and IgM antibodies,respectively.This study suggested that MM whole-cell proteins can induce high levels of cellular and humoral immune responses in mice and exhibit strong inhibition of MTB growth in vitro.The results may suggest potential application value of MM whole-cell proteins as a novel candidate vaccine for tuberculosis.
