Objective By observing the regulatory effect of Strengthening Spleen and Eliminating Cancer Formula on N6-methyladenosine(m6A)methyltransferase,To explore the effect of Strengthening Spleen and Eliminating Cancer Formula on inhibiting the IRX5 m6A level in colorectal cancer(CRC),the regulatory effect on N6-methyladenosine(m6A)methyltransferase was observed.Methods Clinically,m6A hypermethylated genes in colorectal cancer was analyzed by m6A sequencing of pathological tissues from five CRC patients after radical surgery,looking for protein detection indexes for validation.23 BALB/c nude mice were selected and injected with HCT116 cells to establish a nude-mouse transplantation model of human colorectal cancer.They were divided into Model group,Western medicine group(5-fluorouracil group),Chinese medicine group(Jianpi Xiaoai Formula low-dose group,Jianpi Xiaoai Formula high-dose group),with 6 rats in each group,5 rats in control group.The tumor volume of all groups was compared.The overall methylation level of m6A was detected by colorimetric method.The protein expression levels of METTL3,METTL14,and WTAP,in tumor were detected by Western blot.The SRAMP website was used to predict the m6A sites of IRX5.HCT116 cells were treated with oe-NC,oe-METTL3,sh-NC,and sh-METTL3.The expression of IRX5 protein was detected by Western blot.HCT116 cell line was treated with Jianpi Xiaoai Formula drug-containing serum,and transfected with oe-METTL3 and oe-IRX5.The group was set as followed:control group,Jianpi Xiaoai Formula drug-containing serum group,Jianpi Xiaoai Formula drug-containing serum group+oe-NC,Jianpi Xiaoai Formula drug-containing serum group+oe-METTL3,Jianpi Xiaoai Formula drug-containing serum group+oe-IRX5,cell cloning experiment and Transwell experiment were performed to detect cell proliferation,migration and invasion ability of each group.The protein expression levels of METTL3 and IRX5 were detected by Western blot.Results The results of m6A sequencing of genes showed that the m6A methylation level increased in patients with CRC,and the m6A methylation levels of SOX1 and IRX5 were significantly elevated.Compared with the model group,the tumor volume of Jianpi Xiaoyou Formula high-dose group,low-dose group and 5-Fu group decreased significantly(P<0.01),and the tumor inhibition effect was more obvious with the increase of Jianpi Xiaoai Formula concentration(P<0.01).The methylation level of m6A in Jianpi Xiaoai Formula high dose group,low dose group and 5-Fu group decreased significantly(P<0.01).The SRAMP website predicted that IRX5 contained multiple m6A sites.Overexpression of METTL3 promoted the expression of IRX5 protein(P<0.001),while knockdown of METTL3 inhibited the expression of IRX5 protein(P<0.001).The drug-containing serum of Jianpi Xiaoai Formula could inhibit the protein expression of METTL3 and IRX5(P<0.05)and inhibit the proliferation,migration and invasion of HCT116(P<0.01).Overexpression of METTL3 and IRX5 reversed the inhibitory effect of Jianpi Xiaoai Formula on HCT116 evil phenotype(P<0.01).Conclusion Jianpi Xiaoai Formula may inhibit METTL3 expression mediated IRX5 low expression to inhibit the progression of colorectal cancer.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of the CLAE (cladribine + cytarabine + etoposide) regimen in refractory/relapsed T cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma (R/R T-ALL/LBL) .Methods:Patients with R/R T-ALL/LBL received the CLAE regimen in a prospective, multicenter, single-arm clinical study or compassionate use. From March 2019 to August 2024, data from 25 patients (18 in the study across five centers and 7 receiving compassionate treatment in Peking University Third Hospital) were collected. Outcomes included objective response rate, complete response (CR) rate, partial response (PR) rate after 1–2 cycles, bridging to allo-HSCT, progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and treatment-related adverse effects.Results:Median age was 29 years (range, 13–63) ; 17 were male. Among the 24 evaluable patients, CR rate was 33.3% overall and 41.2% among enrolled patients. Median OS and PFS time were 199 (46–1 310) and 49 (28–1 310) days, respectively. Cumulative OS rate at 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years was (52.1±10.2) %, (29.7±9.3) %, and (27.1±9.1) %, respectively; cumulative PFS rate was (32.6±9.6) %, (24.9±8.9) %, and (23.8±8.7) %, respectively. Among patients achieving CR or PR (8 cases), median OS and PFS were not reached. Cumulative OS rate at 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years was (86.8±12.0) %, (78.3±14.6) %, and (72.9±15.7) %, respectively, and the cumulative PFS rate was (86.4±12.1) %, (74.8±15.3) %, and (72.9±15.7) %, respectively. Adverse events were mainly hematologic; no treatment-related mortality occurred. Seven patients achieving CR were bridged to allo-HSCT, with 5 remaining in continuous remission.Conclusion:The CLAE regimen is safe and effective for R/R T-ALL/LBL, facilitating CR as a bridge to allo-HSCT and potentially improving patient prognosis.

Aim To evaluate the role of the glucose transporter protein 1(GLUT1)-dependent glycolytic in the attenuation of oxygen-glucose deprivation-reoxygen-ation(OGD/R)injury in HK-2 cells by dexmedetomi-dine(Dex).Methods C57/BL6 mice were random-ly divided into three groups(n=6),namely,sham operation group(Sham group),renal ischemia reper-fusion group(I/R group)and Dex group(I/R+Dex group).Serum creatinine(Cr)and urea nitrogen(BUN)were measured,while the levels of key glyco-lytic enzymes HK2,PFKFB3 and GLUT1 were meas-ured.HK-2 cells were cultured and randomised into seven groups(n=6),which was treated with OGD/R,overexpression or interference with GLUT1,Dex and glycolysis inhibitor 2-DG.CCK-8 and LDH activi-ty were used to detect cellular damage.Glycolysis lev-els were detected by lactate and ECAR.The inflamma-tory level was reflected by qRT-PCR for IL-6 and TNF-α.qRT-PCR and Western blot were performed to de-tect the levels of GLUT1,HK2,and PFKFB3.Results Dex significantly ameliorated kidney injury and HK-2 cell injury(P＜0.05).Dex inhibited the OGD/R-induced rise in lactate and extracellular acidification rate(ECAR),as evidenced by suppression of the ex-pression of GLUT1,HK2 and PFKFB3(P＜0.05).In vitro experiments showed that GLUT1 knockdown sig-nificantly improved OGD/R-induced cellular damage.Lactate,ECAR,glycolysis-related mRNAs and pro-teins were inhibited by GLUT1 knockdown(P＜0.05).Significantly,there were no significant differ-ences in above indexes after Dex treatment based on GLUT1 knockdown.Overexpression of GLUT1 abroga-ted the protective effects of Dex,while reversing the inhibitory effects of Dex on the expression of GLUT1,HK2,and PFKFB3(P＜0.05).Conclusions Dexmedetomidine attenuates OGD/R induced injury in HK-2 cells by inhibiting GLUT1-dependent glycolysis.

Near infrared spectroscopy(NIRS)analysis technology has become an important process analysis tool in industrial and agricultural production,and has been widely used for qualitative and quantitative analysis in the fields of tobacco,agriculture,and pharmaceuticals.To address issues such as poor generalization ability and low prediction accuracy in NIRS modeling,a two-dimensional convolutional neural network(2DCNN)quantitative analysis model based on competitive adaptive reweighted sampling(CARS)and Gramian angular difference field(GADF)(CARS-GADF-2DCNN)was proposed.CARS-GADF-2DCNN used the CARS method to select an optimal wavelength set from the full spectrum,then employed GADF to encode the selection results into two-dimensional images,and finally used 2DCNN for prediction analysis.The 2DCNN model consisted of convolutional layers,parallel convolution modules,flattening layer,and fully connected layers.Simulation experiments were conducted on three public near-infrared(NIR)spectral datasets encompassing soil,tablet,and grain datasets to evaluate the CARS-GADF-2DCNN model.The results demonstrated that,compared to the one-dimensional convolutional neural network(1DCNN),the GADF-2DCNN model achieved 16.74％,23.40％,and 7.13％improvement in prediction accuracy for the soil,tablet,and grain datasets,respectively.Compared to GADF-2DCNN,VCPA-GADF-2DCNN,and IRIV-GADF-2DCNN models,the CARS-GADF-2DCNN model further improved prediction accuracy.For the soil dataset,prediction accuracy improved by 39.00％,30.78％and 4.13％;for the tablet dataset,the improvements were 9.52％,6.94％and 2.56％;for the grain dataset,the improvements were 20.57％,9.85％and 15.66％.In conclusion,CARS-GADF-2DCNN effectively selected the optimal wavelength subset from near infrared spectra,and revealed the latent features between different wavelengths.CARS-GADF-2DCNN addresses the issues of high complexity in prediction models and low prediction accuracy in near infrared spectral modeling,and could be effectively applied to near infrared spectral prediction analysis of different substances.

Solid-phase extraction(SPE)combined with surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy(SERS)has emerged as a promising analytical technique for detection and analysis of trace components in complex sample matrices.SPE enriches analytes through selective adsorption and solvent elution,effectively increasing the concentration and signal intensity.SERS enables ultra-sensitive and highly selective molecular analysis through the use of SERS-active substrates engineered to amplify Raman signals.The integration of these two techniques overcomes the limitations of conventional Raman spectroscopy in low-concentration detection field,while significantly improving sample preparation efficiency and analytical accuracy.This review provided a comprehensive overview of the characteristics of three SPE-SERS coupling modes,including two-step,one-step,and online integration.Special emphasis was placed on recent advancements in one-step SPE-SERS approaches based on novel functional adsorbent materials such as graphene,metal-organic frameworks,covalent organic frameworks,and molecularly imprinted polymers.Furthermore,future directions and development prospects of SPE-SERS technology were discussed.
