ObjectiveTo investigate the potential mechanism of Shenqi Yiliu Formula (参芪抑瘤方) in treating precancerous lesions of gastric cancer (PLGC) by the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. MethodsThe CCK-8 assay was used to determine the optimal intervention time for Shenqi Yiliu Formula drug-containing serum and the concentration of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway inhibitor XAV939 depends on the survival rate of AGS gastric cancer cell line. AGS cells were divided into the gastric cancer cell group (15% blank serum), inhibitor group (selected concentration of XAV939), high-dose Shenqi Yiliu Formula group (12% Shenqi Yiliu Formula drug-containing serum + 3% blank serum), medium-dose Shenqi Yiliu Formula group (6% Shenqi Yiliu Formula drug-containing serum + 9% blank serum), and low-dose Shenqi Yiliu Formula group (3% Shenqi Yiliu Formula drug-containing serum + 12% blank serum). Each group was tested in triplicate. After culturing for 24 and 48 hours, cell migration and invasion were assessed by scratch assays; after a selected intervention period (48 hours), cell cycle distribution was analyzed using flow cytometry, Ki67 protein levels were detected by immunofluorescence, the protein levels of Wnt, β-catenin, GSK-3β, and intranuclear T-cell specific factor(TCF) were measured by the protein immunoblotting assay, and the mRNA expressions of these above factors were determined by quantitative real-time PCR. ResultsThe optimal intervention time for Shenqi Yiliu Formula drug-containing serum was determined to be 48 hours, and the effective concentration of XAV939 was 20 μmol/L. Compared with the gastric cancer cell group, Shenqi Yiliu Formula at all doses reduced the cell migration rate at 24 and 48 hours (P<0.05), except for the low-dose group at 24 hours. Compared to the low-dose group at corresponding time points, high- and medium-dose Shenqi Yiliu Formula groups showed significantly reduced migration rates, particularly the high-dose group at 48 hours (P<0.05). Compared with the gastric cancer cell group, the high-dose Shenqi Yiliu Formula and inhibitor groups exhibited reduced protein and mRNA levels of Wnt, β-catenin, and TCF, along with reduced Ki67 protein levels and a decreased proportion of cells in the S and G2 phases of the cell cycle, but GSK-3β protein levels, GSK-3β mRNA expression, and the proportion of cells in the G1 phase increased (P<0.05). Compared to the inhibitor group, the high-dose Shenqi Yiliu Formula group showed a decreased proportion of G1-phase cells and an increased proportion of G2-phase cells (P<0.05), although differences in Wnt and β-catenin protein levels and mRNA expressions were not statistically significant (P>0.05). ConclusionShenqi Yiliu Formula drug-containing serum inhibits the migration and invasion of gastric cancer AGS cells and block the cell cycle at G1 phase, and its underlying mechanism may be related to the regulation of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

With the rapid development of competitive sports, the incidence of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury is on the rise. Such injuries may shorten athletes′ career and lead to other long-term adverse consequences. Although athletes generally recover well after ACL reconstruction, many still struggle to return to their pre-injury performance levels. Advances in the understanding of ACL anatomy and injury mechanisms, along with the evolution of surgical techniques and rehabilitation methods, have provided more individualized and tailored options for athletes following ACL injuries. However, there is currently no consensus in China regarding surgical and rehabilitation strategies for competitive athletes aiming to return to sports after ACL injuries. To this end, the Sports Medicine Committee of the Chinese Research Hospital Association and the Editorial Board of the Chinese Journal of Trauma jointly formulated the Expert consensus on surgical treatment and rehabilitation for competitive sports athletes returning to sports after anterior cruciate ligament injury ( version 2025), and presented 14 recommendations covering surgical indications, preoperative rehabilitation, surgical timing, surgical strategies and postoperative rehabilitation strategies, aiming to improve the surgical treatment and rehabilitation system for ACL injuries in competitive athletes and facilitate their return to high-level sports performance after injury.

OBJECTIVE:
To elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying sepsis-induced injury in mouse intestinal organoids and investigate the possible mechanisms or potential drug targets of myeloid differentiation factor 88 inhibitor [TJ-M2010-5 (TJ5)] on this condition.
METHODS:
Small intestinal organoids from C57BL/6 mice aged 6-8 weeks were established and characterized using immunofluorescence for cell growth and proliferation marker nuclear antigen Ki-67, goblet cell marker mucin-2 (MUC-2), epithelial cell marker E-cadherin, and Paneth cell marker lysozyme (Lyz). Small intestinal organoids after 3 days of passaging were divided into different groups: a normal control group treated with culture medium containing 0.2% dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) for 10 hours, a lipopolysaccharide (LPS) group treated with culture medium containing 200 mg/L LPS and 0.2% DMSO for 10 hours, and a TJ5 group pre-treated with 10 mmol/L TJ5 for 2 hours followed by treatment with culture medium containing 200 mg/L LPS for 10 hours. Real-time fluorescence quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was used to measure the expression levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and zonula occludens-1 (ZO-1) in the small intestinal organoids. RNA transcriptome sequencing was performed on the small intestinal organoids from each group to analyze differentially expressed genes between groups, and significant enrichment was analyzed using gene ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG).
RESULTS:
By the 7th day of primary culture, mature organoids had formed, and their growth rate increased after passaging. Immunofluorescence identification showed expressions of Ki-67, MUC-2, E-cadherin, and Lyz, indicating that the mouse small intestinal organoids maintained their cellular composition and functional characteristics under in vitro culture conditions. RT-qPCR results showed that compared with the normal control group, the mRNA expression of IL-6 in the small intestinal organoids of the LPS group was significantly increased (2-ΔΔCT: 1.83±0.16 vs. 1.02±0.28, P < 0.05), while the mRNA expression of ZO-1 was significantly decreased (2-ΔΔCT: 0.53±0.11 vs. 1.01±0.18, P < 0.05). In contrast, the mRNA expression trends of both IL-6 and ZO-1 were reversed in the TJ5 group, showing statistically significant differences as compared with the LPS group (2-ΔΔCT: IL-6 mRNA was 1.24±0.01 vs. 1.83±0.16, ZO-1 mRNA was 1.97±0.29 vs. 0.53±0.11, both P < 0.05). RNA transcriptome sequencing showed 49 differentially expressed genes in the LPS group compared to the normal control group, with 42 upregulated and 7 downregulated. Compared to the LPS group, the TJ5 group showed 84 differentially expressed genes, with 47 upregulated and 37 downregulated. GO enrichment analysis of these differentially expressed genes showed that the significantly enriched biological processes of the differentially expressed genes between the normal control group and the LPS group included responses to LPS, responses to molecule of bacterial origin and responses to bacterium. The significantly enriched biological processes of the differentially expressed genes between the LPS group and the TJ5 group included glutathione metabolic processes, responses to stress cellular and responses to chemical stimulus. In molecular function groups, glutathione binding and oligopeptide binding were significantly enriched by the differentially expressed genes. In cellular component classifications, the enrichment of the differentially expressed genes was mainly observed in the cytoplasm, endoplasmic reticulum, and microsomes. KEGG pathway enrichment analysis indicated that the differentially expressed genes between the normal control group and LPS group were enriched in IL-17 signaling pathways, tumor necrosis factor (TNF) signaling pathways, viral protein interactions with cytokines and cytokine receptors signaling pathways, and cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction signaling pathways. In contrast, the differentially expressed genes between the LPS and TJ5 groups were mainly enriched in atherosclerosis signaling pathways, ferroptosis signaling pathways, glutathione metabolism signaling pathways, and cytochrome P450-mediated drug metabolism signaling pathways.
CONCLUSIONS
Mouse small intestinal organoids were successfully extracted and cultured. TJ5 may exert its protective effects by regulating gene expression and related signaling pathways (fluid shear stress and atherosclerosis, ferroptosis, glutathione metabolism, cytochrome P450 drug metabolism, etc.) in sepsis-injured mouse small intestinal organoids. These genes and signaling pathways may be key targets for treating sepsis-induced intestinal injury.

OBJECTIVE:
This study aimed to explore the association between body mass index (BMI) and mortality based on the 10-year population-based multicenter prospective study.
METHODS:
A general population-based multicenter prospective study was conducted at four sites in rural China between 2013 and 2023. Multivariate Cox proportional hazards models and restricted cubic spline analyses were used to assess the association between BMI and mortality. Stratified analyses were performed based on the individual characteristics of the participants.
RESULTS:
Overall, 19,107 participants with a sum of 163,095 person-years were included and 1,910 participants died. The underweight (< 18.5 kg/m 2) presented an increase in all-cause mortality (adjusted hazards ratio [ aHR] = 2.00, 95% confidence interval [ CI]: 1.66-2.41), while overweight (≥ 24.0 to < 28.0 kg/m 2) and obesity (≥ 28.0 kg/m 2) presented a decrease with an aHR of 0.61 (95% CI: 0.52-0.73) and 0.51 (95% CI: 0.37-0.70), respectively. Overweight ( aHR = 0.76, 95% CI: 0.67-0.86) and mild obesity ( aHR = 0.72, 95% CI: 0.59-0.87) had a positive impact on mortality in people older than 60 years. All-cause mortality decreased rapidly until reaching a BMI of 25.7 kg/m 2 ( aHR = 0.95, 95% CI: 0.92-0.98) and increased slightly above that value, indicating a U-shaped association. The beneficial impact of being overweight on mortality was robust in most subgroups and sensitivity analyses.
CONCLUSION
This study provides additional evidence that overweight and mild obesity may be inversely related to the risk of death in individuals older than 60 years. Therefore, it is essential to consider age differences when formulating health and weight management strategies.
