ObjectiveChemotherapy is one of the important therapeutic approaches for cancer treatment. However, the emergence of multidrug resistance and side effects significantly limit its application. To address these challenges, chemotherapy is often combined with other drugs or therapies. Among the 13 human fucosyltransferases (FUTs) identified, FUT8 (alpha-(1,6)-fucosyltransferase) is the only enzyme responsible for core fucosylation. Core fucosylation plays an important role in cancer occurrence, metastasis and chemotherapy resistance, making the suppression of FUT8 a potential strategy for reversing multidrug resistance. This study aims to evaluate the feasibility of combining the small molecule FUT8 inhibitor 2FF (2-deoxy-2-fluoro-L-fucose) with the clinical chemotherapeutic drug doxorubicin (DOX) for treating malignant tumors. MethodsThe human hepatocellular carcinoma cell line HepG2 and mouse colon cancer cell line CT26 cells were treated with 2FF, DOX or their combination and core fucosylation levels were assessed using Lectin blot. HepG2 and CT26 cells were exposed to 50 μmol/L 2FF for 72 h, followed by treatment with a gradient concentration of DOX for 24 h. Cell viability and IC₅₀ values were determined via the CCK-8 assay. Transwell invasion assays were conducted to evaluate the combined effect of 2FF and DOX on the invasion ability of HepG2 cells. Flow cytometry was performed to analyze the impact of 2FF, DOX and their combination on membrane PD-L1 expression of HepG2 cells. To assess the in vivo effect, 6- to 8-week-old female BALB/c mice (20-25 g), were subcutaneously injected with 1×10⁶ CT26 cells into the right axilla (four groups, six mice in each group). After the average tumor volume reached 100 mm³, mice were treated with DOX, 2FF, their combination, or saline (mock group) every other day. DOX was administrated intraperitoneally (2 mg/kg), 2FF intravenously (5 mg/kg), and the combination group, received the both treatment. Tumor size was measured every other day using a vernier caliper. ResultsThis study demonstrated that DOX upregulates the core fucosylation levels in HepG2 and CT26 cells,while 2FF effectively inhibits this DOX-induced effect. Furthermone, 2FF enhanced the sensitivity of HepG2 and CT26 cells to DOX. The combination of 2FF and DOX synergistically inhibited the invasion ability of HepG2 cells, and enhanced the anti-tumor efficacy of CT26 subcutaneous tumor model in BALB/c mice. However the combination treatment led to weight loss in mice. In addition, DOX increased the cell surface PD-L1 expression in HepG2 cells, which was effectively suppressed by 2FF. ConclusionThe FUT8 inhibitor 2FF effectively suppresses DOX-induced upregulation of core fucosylation and PD-L1 levels in tumor cells, and 2FF synergistically enhances the anticancer efficacy of DOX.

Glaucoma is a group of optic nerve disorders characterized by progressive optic nerve atrophy and visual field defects, which can lead to irreversible blindness. Early diagnosis of glaucoma is essential for preventing visual loss. However, due to the absence of obvious early symptoms, the diagnosis of glaucoma remains challenging. Visual electrophysiological examinations, an objective approach for evaluating visual function, have the potential to be used in the early diagnosis of glaucoma. This review integrates the latest publications to introduce visual electrophysiological examination techniques, including electroretinography(ERG)and visual evoked potential(VEP). It also explores the mechanisms underlying these techniques and their application value in the early diagnosis of glaucoma. In addition, this review summarizes the advantages, limitations, and applicable scenarios of different visual electrophysiological techniques. Finally, the review provides an outlook on the development prospects of visual electrophysiological techniques in the early diagnosis of glaucoma. The findings of this review can assist clinicians in selecting appropriate diagnostic methods, promote the innovation and development of early visual electrophysiological diagnostic techniques for glaucoma, and contribute to reducing the risk of blindness caused by glaucoma.

ObjectiveThrough qualitatively and quantitatively analysis of the differences in chemical composition between the combined decoction and single decoction of Huaganjian and comparison of their core efficacy， to explore the rationality of the flexible clinical application of Huaganjian compound preparations and single-flavored dispensing granules. MethodsUltra performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-electrostatic field orbitrap high resolution mass spectrometry（UPLC-Q-Exactive Orbitrap MS） was used to qualitatively analyze the combined decoction and single decoction samples of Huaganjian， and meanwhile， the contents of four index components（geniposide， paeoniflorin， hesperidin and paeonol） were quantitatively analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography（HPLC）. Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease（NAFLD） rat model induced by high-fat diet was applied to compare the efficacy of combined decoction and single decoction of Huaganjian. A total of 30 male SD rats were randomly divided into the control group， model group， lovastatin group（1.8 mg·kg^-1）， combined decoction group（1.26 g·kg^-1） and single decoction group（1.18 g·kg^-1）. After successful modeling， lovastatin group， combined decoction group and single decoction group were given corresponding doses of drugs by intragastric administration every day， and the control group and model group were given equal amounts of normal saline by intragastric administration， after 4 weeks of administration， the serum and liver tissues were collected， and the contents of alanine aminotransferase（ALT）， aspartate aminotransferase（AST）， total cholesterol（TC）， triglyceride（TG）， low-density lipoprotein cholesterol（LDL-C） and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol（HDL-C） in serum of rats were detected， and the liver pathological examination was carried out by hematoxylin-eosin（HE） staining and oil red O staining， so as to compare differences of their efficacy. ResultsSeventy chemical components were initially identified and attributed from the lyophilized powder of the combined decoction and single decoction samples of Huaganjian， and there was no obvious difference in composition between the two. Further quantitative analysis showed that the contents of geniposide， paeoniflorin， hesperidin and paeonol in the combined decoction samples were significantly increased when compared with those of the single decoction samples（P<0.01）. The pharmacodynamic results showed that compared with the model group， both the combined and single decoction groups of Huaganjian could improve the liver index of NAFLD rats， reduce the serum levels of AST， ALT， TC， TG and LDL-C， increase the serum level of HDL-C， and ameliorate the pathological changes of liver cell steatosis and fat accumulation. However， there was no significant difference in pharmacodynamic effects between the combined decoction group and the single decoction group. ConclusionThere is no significant difference between the combined decoction and single decoction of Huaganjian in terms of chemical composition， but the contents of the four index components show significantly difference. Both of them can significantly improve the fat accumulation and liver function in NAFLD rats. This study provides a reference basis for the rational clinical application and evaluation of famous classical formula compound preparations and single-flavored dispensing granules.

Optical imaging is highly valued for its superior temporal and spatial resolution. This is particularly important in near-infrared II (NIR-II, 1 000-3 000 nm) imaging, which offers advantages such as reduced tissue absorption, minimal scattering, and low autofluorescence. These characteristics make NIR-II imaging especially suitable for deep tissue visualization, where high contrast and minimal background interference are critical for accurate diagnosis and monitoring. Currently, inorganic fluorescent probes—such as carbon nanotubes, rare earth nanoparticles, and quantum dots—offer high brightness and stability. However, they are hindered by ambiguous structures, larger sizes, and potential accumulation toxicity in vivo. In contrast, organic fluorescent probes, including small molecules and polymers, demonstrate higher biocompatibility but are limited by shorter emission wavelengths, lower quantum yields, and reduced stability. Recently, gold clusters have emerged as a promising class of nanomaterials with potential applications in biocatalysis, fluorescence sensing, biological imaging, and more. Water-soluble gold clusters are particularly attractive as fluorescent probes due to their remarkable optical properties, including strong photoluminescence, large Stokes shifts, and excellent photostability. Furthermore, their outstanding biocompatibility—attributed to good aqueous stability, ultra-small hydrodynamic size, and high renal clearance efficiency—makes them especially suitable for biomedical applications. Gold clusters hold significant potential for NIR-II fluorescence imaging. Atomic-precision gold clusters, typically composed of tens to hundreds of gold atoms and measuring only a few nanometers in diameter, possess well-defined three-dimensional structures and clear spatial coordination. This atomic-level precision enables fine-tuned structural regulation, further enhancing their fluorescence properties. Variations in cluster size, surface ligands, and alloying elements can result in distinct physicochemical characteristics. The incorporation of different atoms can modulate the atomic and electronic structures of gold clusters, while diverse ligands can influence surface polarity and steric hindrance. As such, strategies like alloying and ligand engineering are effective in enhancing both fluorescence and catalytic performance, thereby meeting a broader range of clinical needs. In recent years, gold clusters have attracted growing attention in the biomedical field. Their application in NIR-II imaging has led to significant progress in vascular, organ, and tumor imaging. The resulting high-resolution, high signal-to-noise imaging provides powerful tools for clinical diagnostics. Moreover, biologically active gold clusters can aid in drug delivery and disease diagnosis and treatment, offering new opportunities for clinical therapeutics. Despite the notable achievements in fundamental research and clinical translation, further studies are required to address challenges related to the standardized synthesis and complex metabolic behavior of gold clusters. Resolving these issues will help accelerate their clinical adoption and broaden their biomedical applications.
