Direct compression is an ideal method for tablet preparation, but it requires the powder's high functional properties. The functional properties of the powder during compression directly affect the quality of the tablet. 15 parameters such as Py, FES-8KN, FES-12KN, FES-16KN, CR-8KN, CR-12KN, and CR-16KN were used as the characteristic variables in this paper. Unsupervised learning methods like principal component analysis, cluster analysis, and factor analysis were applied to analyze and classify the compression behavior data of 36 traditional Chinese medicine powders. The results showed that both different dimensionality reduction classification methods could effectively differentiate the compression behavior characteristics of 36 traditional Chinese medicine compound powders. The hierarchical cluster analysis results showed a better agreement with the actual compression phenomena of the powders, where group 1 was high elasticity and low compressibility, group 2 was easily compressed and hard to break, group 3 was excellent compressibility and compactibility. This study is expected to provide references and ideas for predicting the behavior of traditional Chinese medicine powders and the screening of tablet formulations.

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), as a treasure of the Chinese nation, plays a significant role in maintaining public health. In 2019, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council proposed for the first time the establishment of a TCM registration and evaluation evidence system that integrates TCM theory, "personal experience" and clinical trials (referred to as the "Three-in-One" System) to promote the inheritance and innovation of TCM. Subsequently, the National Medical Products Administration issued several guiding principles to advance the improvement and implementation of this system. Owing to the complexity of its implementation, there are still differing understandings within the TCM industry regarding the positioning of the "Three-in-One" Registration and Evaluation Evidence System, as well as the connotation and value orientation of the "personal experience." To address this, Academician WANG Qi, President of the TCM Association, China International Exchange and Promotion Association for Medical and Healthcare and TCM master, led a group of academicians, TCM masters, TCM pharmacology experts and clinical TCM experts to convene a "Seminar on Promoting the Implementation of the ′Three-in-One′ Registration and Evaluation Evidence System for Chinese Medicinals." Through extensive discussions, an expert consensus was formed, clarifying the different roles of the TCM theory, "personal experience" and clinical trials within the system. It was further emphasized that the "personal experience" is the core of this system, and its data should be derived from clinical practice scenarios. In the future, the improvement of this system will require collaborative efforts across multiple fields to promote the high-quality development of the Chinese medicinal industry.

Objective:To explore the expression of lncRNA ARHGAP5-AS1 in renal cancer tissues and cell lines, and the effect of ARHGAP5-AS1 on the proliferation and invasion of renal cancer cell lines and its molecular mechanism.Methods:The GEPIA database was used to analyze the expression of ARHGAP5-AS1 in renal cancer tissues, and its relationship with clinical stage, overall survival and disease-free survival of renal cancer patients was analyzed. Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was used to detect the expression level of ARHGAP5-AS1 in renal cancer cells (786-O, Caki-1, OS-RC-2, ACHN, A-498). Renal carcinoma OS-RC-2 cells were transfected with pcDNA3.1-ARHGAP5-AS1 plasmid or pcDNA3.1 plasmid, denoted as ARHGAP5-AS1 group and control group. Colony formation assay and Transwell assay were used to detect changes in the proliferation and invasion ability of OS-RC-2 cells. Dual-luciferase reporter gene experiment was used to verify the targeting relationship between ARHGAP5-AS1 and miR-155-5p. The Starbase v3.0 online database was used to analyze the correlation between the expression of ARHGAP5-AS1 and miR-155-5p in renal cancer tissues. RT-qPCR was used to detect the expression level changes of miR-155-5p. Western blotting was used to detect the expression changes of Raf/MEK/ERK molecular pathway proteins p-Raf, p-MEK, p-ERK, p-FBW7, and c-MYC. The measurement data were expressed as mean ± standard deviation ( ± s), the independent sample t-test was used for comparison between two groups, and one-way analysis of variance was used for comparison between multiple groups. Results:ARHGAP5-AS1 was lowly expressed in renal cancer tissues ( P<0.01), and its expression level was related to the clinical stage, overall survival and disease-free survival of patients with renal cancer ( P<0.01). ARHGAP5-AS1 showed low expression in renal cancer cell lines (786-O, Caki-1, OS-RC-2, ACHN, A-498) ( P<0.01). Compared with the control group, the proliferation and invasion abilities of OS-RC-2 cells in ARHGAP5-AS1 group were significantly reduced ( P<0.01). Dual-luciferase reporter gene experiment confirmed that ARHGAP5-AS1 targets and binds to miR-155-5p ( P<0.01). The expression of ARHGAP5-AS1 and miR-155-5p in renal cancer tissues was negatively correlated ( P<0.01). Compared with the control group, the expression of miR-155-5p in OS-RC-2 cells in the ARHGAP5-AS1 group was significantly reduced ( P<0.01). Compared with the control group, the expression levels of Raf/MEK/ERK molecular pathway proteins p-Raf, p-MEK, p-ERK, p-FBW7, and c-MYC in OS-RC-2 cells in the ARHGAP5-AS1 group were reduced. Conclusions:lncRNA ARHGAP5-AS1 is lowly expressed in renal cancer tissues and is related to the clinical stage and survival of renal cancer patients. ARHGAP5-AS1 inhibits the proliferation and invasion of renal cancer cells by targeting the expression of miR-155-5p.

Aim To investigate the dynamic changes of neuronal cells at different time points following acute cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury by establishing a model of brain ischemia-reperfusion injury.Methods Thirty male Sprague-Dawley(SD)rats were ran-domly divided into six groups:sham group and cere-bral ischemia-reperfusion injury(IR)groups at differ-ent time points.Focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury model was established using the middle cerebral artery occlusion(MCAO)technique.The Longa sco-ring method was used to assess neurobehavioral scores in rats.After successful model preparation,routine paraffin sections were made,and TUNEL staining and immunohistochemistry staining with NeuN antibody were performed to observe cell apoptosis and neuronal cell survival,respectively.Immunohistochemistry stai-ning was also performed to investigate the changes in glial fibrillary acidic protein(GFAP)as a marker for astrocytes,ionized calcium-binding adapter molecule 1(IBA-1)as a marker for microglia,and CD31 as a marker for endothelial cells at different time points.Results No significant changes were observed in neu-ronal cells of the sham group at different time points.In the cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury groups,cell apoptosis was activated at IR3h and increased in quan-tity with morphological damage as time progressed.Ne-uN+neurons showed signs of ischemic injury after IR3h,with abnormal cell morphology.From 12 h,Ne-uN+neurons decreased in a time-dependent manner and reached their peak severity at 24 h.GFAP+astro-cytes decreased significantly after IR3h,while poorly labeled GFAP+astrocytes increased at IR 6 h and al-most disappeared in the infarcted area at 24 h and 48 h.The number of IBA-1+microglia-positive cells de-creased at IR3h,and their volume increased at IR6h.Microglial cell death was observed in the infarcted area at IR12h.CD31+endothelial cells around the infarc-ted cortex and striatum increased significantly after IR3h and persisted until 48 h.Conclusions After cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury,the number of ap-optotic cells increases with the prolongation of time,and NeuN+neurons exhibit the most severe damage at 24 h.GFAP+astrocytes and microglial cells gradually die over time.The number of CD31+endothelial cells increases significantly around the infarcted cortex and striatum after 3 h of reperfusion and persists until 48 h.
