BACKGROUND:Autologous bone,allogeneic bone or artificial bone has been used to promote bone defect repair in the clinic,but the rate of non-healing is still high.The key is to ignore the importance of periosteum in the bone healing process.In the early stage of the project,the project team constructed an electrospinning membrane loaded with vascular endothelial growth factor to highly simulate the intramembranous osteogenesis of natural periosteum at the bone defect site,which promoted bone regeneration to a certain extent.However,the injured area often faces the dilemma of severe inflammatory response mediated by macrophages and lack of seed cells,resulting in the risk of inactivation or diffusion of delivered biological factors.Therefore,it is necessary to further optimize and coordinate the immune regulation and angiogenesis functions of biomimetic periosteum to promote bone repair.OBJECTIVE:To investigate the physicochemical properties of stem cell-engineered bionic periosteum and its role in regulating the inflammatory microenvironment to promote bone repair.METHODS:By combining L-polylactic acid-based microsol electrospinning,type Ⅰ collagen self-assembly and gel stem cell transplantation technology,a bionic periosteum(M@C-B)was constructed,in which the core layer loaded with vascular endothelial growth factor and the shell layer delivered bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells to regulate the immune microenvironment of bone defects.The physicochemical properties of the periosteum were characterized by scanning electron microscopy,transmission electron microscopy,and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy.A co-culture system was established between the bionic periosteum and macrophages,bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells and human umbilical vein endothelial cells to explore immune regulation and in vitro osteogenic and angiogenic abilities.Finally,the osteogenic properties of the stem cell engineered bionic periosteum were further verified in a rat femoral condyle defect model.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Transmission electron microscopy results showed that the micro-sol electrospinning(MS)formed a distinct core-shell structure.Scanning electron microscopy indicated that after the assembly of the collagen-l artificial periosteum(M@C)on the surface of the vascular endothelial growth factor-loaded micro-sol,a distinct"spider web-like"fibrous structure was deposited.Infrared spectroscopy further confirmed the successful self-assembly of collagen-l.Release experiments demonstrated that the M@C group mitigated the burst release phenomenon compared to the MS group,maintaining internal vascular endothelial growth factor activity and sustained release.(2)Live/dead cell staining and CCK-8 assay showed that bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells proliferated well and survived on three types of artificial periosteum:MS,purely aligned poly(L-lactic acid)(PLLA)surface self-assembled collagen-l artificial periosteum(PLLA@C),and vascular endothelial growth factor-loaded micro-sol fiber surface self-assembled collagen-l-bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells artificial periosteum(M@C-B).Among them,the M@C-B group had the highest number of live cells and the fastest proliferation rate.(3)Alkaline phosphatase staining,alizarin red staining,and osteopontin immunofluorescence staining showed that the PLLA@C and M@C-B groups significantly promoted osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells.Angiogenesis experiments demonstrated that the vascular endothelial growth factor-loaded groups(MS and M@C-B)had longer blood vessel lengths and more reticular vascular-like structures with more cross-linked nodes,with the M@C-B group being the most prominent.(4)Immunofluorescence and flow cytometry showed that artificial periosteum in the M@C-B group significantly inhibited the pro-inflammatory macrophage phenotype and promoted the polarization of macrophages towards the anti-inflammatory M2 phenotype.(5)In vivo studies further confirmed that the M@C-B group showed superior bone mineral density,trabecular thickness,relative bone volume,and trabecular spacing compared to other groups.(6)These results indicate that bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell-engineered artificial periosteum,through the rapid regulation of the bone defect immune microenvironment by the collagen-l-bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells outer phase and the sustained release of vascular endothelial growth factor by the micro-sol electrospinning core-shell structure of the inner phase,synergistically promotes bone healing.

Lung cancer constitutes the most prevalent and lethal malignant tumor in China. Approximately 85% of lung cancer diagnoses correspond to the non-small cell histological subtype [non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)]. Despite surgery being the mainstay for early-stage disease, postoperative recurrence remains high and adjuvant chemotherapy offers limited benefit. In recent years, targeted therapy has demonstrated substantial advantages in driver mutation-positive NSCLC. To this end, the Lung Cancer Medical Education Committee of the Chinese Medical Education Association developed guidelines based on a systematic review of evidence through November 2025, using the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluations (GRADE) approach and a modified Delphi method. Focusing on epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK), and addressing ROS proto-oncogene 1 (ROS1), B-Raf proto-oncogene serine/threonine kinase (BRAF) V600E mutation, and mesenchymal-epithelial transition factor (MET) exon 14 (METex14) skipping, the guideline covers molecular testing, neoadjuvant/adjuvant therapy, perioperative strategies, minimal residual disease monitoring, and postoperative surveillance. It defines testing requirements, specifies stage-directed and subtype-specific treatments, and standardizes minimal residual disease monitoring. These recommendations emphasize precision and feasibility to improve survival and quality of life.

OBJECTIVE To explore the effect and potential mechanism of 717 Jiedu decoction in ameliorating local tissue injury induced by Gloydius brevicaudus venom via regulating macrophage phenotype transformation.METHODS Rat blank-serum and drug-containing serum were prepared by intragastric administration of normal saline, tail-vein injection of anti- G. brevicaudus venom serum (0.6 mL per rat), and intragastric administration of 717 Jiedu decoction at doses of 0.495, 0.99 and 1.98 g/kg (calculated as crude drug). M0-type macrophages derived from human leukemia monocytic THP-1 cells induced and differentiated by PMA were divided into normal control group, model group, positive control group, and low-, medium- and high-concentration 717 Jiedu decoction drug-containing serum groups. Except for the normal control group, all other groups were treated with 10 μg/mL G. brevicaudus venom working solution and 10% blank or drug-containing serum. After the cultivation period, the cellular ultrastructural changes in each group were observed; the proportions of M1- and M2-type macrophages, as well as the mRNA and protein expression of macrophage phenotype transformation and hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) were detected.RESULTS Compared with the normal control group, cells in the model group presented ultrastructural injuries including mitochondrial swelling, cristae rupture and cytoplasmic vacuolization. The proportion of M1-type macrophages and the mRNA and protein expression levels of related phenotype transformation markers [inducible nitric oxide synthase, tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-6 (IL-6), IL-1β] and HIF-1α were significantly increased ( P <0.05),whereas the proportion of M2-type macrophages and the mRNA and protein expression levels of related phenotype transformation markers (arginase-1, IL-10, mannose receptor C type 1 and chitinase-3-like protein 1) were significantly decreased ( P <0.05). Compared with the model group, cellular ultrastructural injuries were obviously alleviated, and the above-mentioned indexes were significantly reversed in the high-concentration 717 Jiedu decoction drug-containing serum group ( P <0.05).CONCLUSIONS717 Jiedu decoction can exert anti-inflammatory and tissue-repairing effects by regulating the balance of M1-, M2-type macrophages phenotype transformation and repairing cellular ultrastructural damage. Its mechanism may be related to inhibiting the excessive activation of the HIF-1α pathway.

Huaihuasan, first recorded in Experiential Prescriptions for Universal Relief (Pu Ji Ben Shi Fang), is a classic prescription for the treatment of ''hematochezia due to intestinal wind''. In 2018, it was included by the National Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine as one of the first 100 classic prescriptions. This formula consists of four ingredients, i.e., Sophorae Flos, Platycladi Cacumen, Schizonepetae Spica, and Aurantii Fructus. It is known for its ability to clear the intestines, dispel wind, cool the blood, and stop bleeding. In modern clinical practice, Huaihuasan, often with modifications, is widely used to treat various digestive tract diseases, including ulcerative colitis (UC), with significant long-term effects. UC is a chronic, non-specific inflammatory bowel disease. Currently, Western medicine primarily treats UC with glucocorticoids, aminosalicylates, and immunosuppressants, which have good short-term efficacy but numerous adverse reactions, high recurrence rates, and the need for lifelong medication. Modern clinical studies have shown that Huaihuasan can significantly improve symptoms of UC, such as abdominal pain and diarrhea, reduce disease activity scores (Sutherland), promote intestinal mucosal healing, alleviate anxiety and depression, and significantly improve the quality of life of patients. Pharmacological studies have shown that the main active components of Huaihuasan include quercetin, rutin, kaempferol, naringenin, and volatile oils. These compounds exert their effects by inhibiting inflammatory responses and protecting the intestinal mucosal barrier. They also exhibit antioxidant properties and regulate various signaling pathways, including tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-2 (IL-2), interleukin-4 (IL-4), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB), Janus kinase (JAK)/signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT), and the KRAS-regulated mitogen-activated protein kinase (MEK)-extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) pathway. These multi-target pathways improve UC symptoms, inhibit inflammation-cancer transition, and help maintain intestinal homeostasis. However, the precise mechanism of action has not yet been systematically elucidated. This paper reviews the research progress on Huaihuasan and main ingredients from its component drugs, focusing on their effects against UC. It also discusses current research limitations and suggests strategies for improvement, aiming to provide a reference for further studies on Huaihuasan in the treatment of UC and the development of new drugs.

Objective:To explore the genotype and the clinical phenotype of SCN2A-related developmental delay in children. Methods:A case series study was adopted. Collect clinical data from 10 cases of children with SCN2A gene variants diagnosed with global developmental delay/intellectual disability who were admitted to the Children′s Hospital between July 2019 and March 2023. Summarize the clinical phenotype and genotype based on clinical data such as general information, clinical manifestations, imaging examinations, laboratory tests, genetic testing results, and comprehensive pediatric neuropsychological development assessment. Results:A total of 10 patients were recruited, including 7 males and 3 females, with an age range of 27 days to 5 years and 9 months. 9 patients underwent children′s neuropsychological and behavioral assessments, and the results were consistent with global developmental delay, including 2 mild cases, 4 moderate cases, and 3 severe cases. 3 cases had autism spectrum disorder, and 2 cases had epilepsy. 6 patients underwent complete head MRI examination, and 4 of them showed abnormalities, including delayed myelination, widening of the local extra brain space in the frontal lobe, and abnormal frontal lobe morphology. All 10 cases had point variants. Among them, 9 cases are de novo and 1 case is maternal inheritance. Out of 10 cases, there were 5 cases with copy number variations, but all of them were of unknown significance. Among the 10 variants, 8 have been reported and 2 have not been reported, namely c.4145A>T(p.N1382I) and c.4937T>A(p.I1646N). In this study, 4 out of 10 patients with SCN2A variants had variation sites located in the S4 segment of domain which constitute Nav1.2, the sodium ion channel encoded by SCN2A. The developmental quotient level was lower when the variation sites were located in the S4 segment of domain, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=-3.101, P=0.017), indicating that the severity of developmental delay may be related to the localization of amino acids corresponding to variant sites within the protein domain. Conclusion:SCN2A mutations are strongly associated with diverse neurodevelopmental disorders. In this study, the phenotypic spectrum of SCN2A variants encompassed epilepsy, global developmental delay, and autism spectrum disorder. Affected individuals exhibited early-onset developmental delays, predominantly moderate to severe in severity. Voltage-sensing domain dysfunction in sodium channels may constitute a critical pathomechanism underlying neurodevelopmental impairments. Further electrophysiological characterization and molecular mechanistic studies are warranted todelineate the genotype-phenotype correlations between specific variant loci and clinical severity.

Objective:To analyze the effects of the disease and injury spectrum on health-adjusted life expectancy (HALE) among permanent residents aged 55 and above in Shenzhen from 2016 to 2030.Methods:Based on the mortality surveillance data and the permanent resident population data in Shenzhen from 2016 to 2022, the Sullivan method was used to calculate the HALE during 2016—2022. The Bayesian age-period-cohort model and the grey system model were used to predict the HALE during 2023—2030. The HALE changes in the two periods were decomposed into the contributions of 20 categories of diseases and injuries, respectively.Results:From 2016 to 2022, the HALE increased from 31.41 years (95% CI: 30.50-32.32) to 33.57 years (95% CI: 32.47-34.67). During this period, the mortality effect of neurological disorders slowed the increase of HALE, with a reduction of 0.27 years. By 2030, it is anticipated that the HALE will reach 36.40 years (95% CI: 34.78-38.01). This is expected to be influenced by the mortality effects of nutritional deficiencies (-0.40 years) and mental disorders (-0.29 years), as well as the disability effects of musculoskeletal disorders (-0.66 years), skin and subcutaneous diseases (-0.21 years) and nutritional deficiencies (-0.13 years). Conclusion:The HALE of permanent residents aged 55 years and above in Shenzhen demonstrated an increasing trend over time. Greater attention should be paid to the adverse effects of neurological disorders, nutritional deficiencies, mental disorders, musculoskeletal disorders, and skin and subcutaneous diseases on the continuous increase of HALE in this population.
