ObjectiveTo reveal the compatibility rules of the core compound formula and traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) components for prevention and treatment of chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG) by Huazhuo Jiedu (turbidity-resolving and detoxifying) therapy through uniform design in view of the potential regulatory pathway of endogenous turbid-toxin retention in CAG, elucidate the potential pathway by which the compound formulas regulate the Wnt/β-catenin-connexin 43 (CX43) signaling axis, demonstrated the efficacy enhancement and toxicity attenuation among the components, thus providing experimental evidence for the scientific application of multi-component, multi-target compatibility in TCM compound formulas. MethodsA mouse model of CAG was established with N-methyl-N-nitrosourea (MNU). Sixty mice were randomly allocated into 5 groups (n=12 per group): blank control, model, low-dose Huazhuo Jiedu core compound formula (HXFF-L, 4.004 g·kg-1), high-dose Huazhuo Jiedu core compound formula (HXFF-H, 8.008 g·kg-1), and positive control (folic acid at 11 mg·kg-1 + vitamin B12 at 14 mg·kg-1). The therapeutic efficacy and molecular mechanism of the core compound formula were evaluated by hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining, Alcian blue-periodic acid-Schiff (AB-PAS) staining, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), immunofluorescence assay, and Western blot. The chemical components of the core compound formula were detected and effective components were screened by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography coupled with quadrupole-orbitrap high-resolution mass spectrometry (UHPLC-Q-Orbitrap HRMS). Another 120 mice were randomized into blank control, model, and 8 HXFF component-combination groups with different dosages (uniform design groups 1-8, n=12 per group). A uniform design was adopted, with pathological scores of mouse gastric tissue as well as serum levels of pepsinogen Ⅰ (PGⅠ), pepsinogen Ⅱ (PGⅡ), and gastrin 17 (GAS17) set as dependent variables. Multivariate linear regression analysis was performed to predict the optimal proportion of core components in the compound formula and explore its compatibility rules. ResultsPharmacodynamic validation showed that compared with the blank control group, the model group had decreased gastric weight index (P<0.01) and increased pathological damage score and inflammatory factor levels (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, these indicators were reversed in the HXFF-L, HXFF-H, and positive control groups (P<0.05, P<0.01). Immunofluorescence results showed that CX43 expression was downregulated in the model group compared with the blank control group (P<0.01) and upregulated in the HXFF-H and positive control groups compared with the model group (P<0.05, P<0.01). Western blot results showed that compared with the blank control group, the model group demonstrated upregulated protein levels of Wnt and β-catenin in the gastric tissue (P<0.01). Compared with those in the model group, the protein level of Wnt was downregulated in the HXFF-L, HXFF-H, and positive control groups (P<0.05, P<0.01), while that of β-catenin was downregulated only in the HXFF-H group (P<0.05). A total of 25 compounds were identified in the core compound formula, including 9 from Coptidis Rhizoma, 10 from Pogostemonis Herba, 2 from Scorpio, and 4 from Lilii Bulbus. According to the category and origin of compounds, Coptidis Rhizoma alkaloids, Pogostemonis Herba volatile oils, Scorpio peptides, and Lilii Bulbus alkaloids were finally selected for component research. The predicted optimal combination of TCM components was as follows: Coptidis Rhizoma alkaloids at 75 mg·kg-1, Pogostemonis Herba volatile oils at 2.25 mg·kg-1, Scorpio protein extract at 90 mg·kg-1, and Lilii Bulbus alkaloids at 9 mg·kg-1. Coptidis Rhizoma alkaloids, Scorpio protein extract, Pogostemonis Herba volatile oils, and Lilii Bulbus alkaloids can ameliorate pathological lesions of the gastric tissue. Scorpio protein extract exerted positive regulatory effects on the gastric function, while Pogostemonis Herba volatile oils and Lilii Bulbus alkaloids showed negative correlations with partial gastric function indicators. Further investigations are required to clarify their dose-effect relationships and safety profiles. ConclusionThis study, for the first time, predicts the optimal proportion and synergistic regulatory mechanism of the core compound formula of Huazhuo Jiedu therapy, revealing the synergistic compatibility logic of its components. It provides a novel strategy for the precise TCM treatment of CAG and the modern development of compound formulas.

OBJECTIVE:
To explore the clinical phenotype and variants of KIF4A gene associated with X-linked intellectual disability type 100 (XLID100) in a child by whole-exome sequencing (WES).
METHODS:
A child presented at the Children's Hospital Affiliated to Nanjing Medical University in September 2023 was selected as the study subject. Clinical data of the child was retrospectively analyzed. Peripheral blood samples were collected from the child and his family members for WES analysis. Candidate variant was verified by Sanger sequencing. Pathogenicity of the candidate variant was rated based on the guidelines from the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG). The variant was also searched in dbSNP, OMIM, HGMD, ClinVar and gnomAD databases. Amino acid sequences of the KIF4A protein across various species were retrieved from the Ensembl Genome Browser Database and analyzed using Clustal Omega software. Relevant literature on KIF4A gene mutations associated with XLID100 was reviewed. This study has been approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of the Hospital (Ethics No. 202402022-1).
RESULTS:
The child, a 3-year-6-month-old male, had manifested intellectual impairment, language delay, autism, and choroid cyst revealed by cranial magnetic resonance imaging. No facial dysmorphism, tooth anomaly, gross motor development delay or regression, and history of seizure and febrile convulsion was noted. WES revealed that he has harbored a c.3385delinsTATC (p.Thr1129delinsTyrPro) variant of the KIF4A gene. Sanger sequencing confirmed that his mother and sister have harbored the same variant, whilst his father was of the wild type. Both of his parents had a normal phenotype. The variant was classified as of uncertain significance based on the guidelines from the ACMG. It was not recorded by the dbSNP, OMIM, HGMD, ClinVar and the gnomAD database. Conservative analysis suggested that the variant site, which normally encodes a cysteine, is highly conserved among various species. A review of the literature had retrieved 6 relevant articles documenting a total of 27 cases of KIF4A gene mutations, with only one case from China.
CONCLUSION
The c.3385delinsTATC (p.Thr1129delinsTyrPro) variant of the KIF4A gene probably underlay the XLID100 in this child. Above finding has provided a reference for the clinical diagnosis and genetic counseling and enriched the mutation spectrum of the KIF4A gene.

OBJECTIVE To identify the chemical components of Shenbai Jiedu Decoction(SBJDD),a traditional Chinese medi-cine(TCM)prescription clinically used for the treatment of colorectal adenoma(CRA),and explore the potential mechanism of SBJDD preventing and treating CRA carcinogenesis.METHODS An ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-time of flight-mass spectrometry(UPLC-Q-TOF-MS)method was established to detect the chemical components in the decoction of SBJDD and the plas-ma samples of rats after administration with SBJDD.Based on the network pharmacological method,SBJDD was screened for the poten-tial active ingredients at different stages of CRA carcinogenesis,and the mechanism of the anti-cancer effect of SBJDD was explored.In vitro experiments were also carried out to verify the mechanism of anti-colorectal cancer(CRC)action of SBJDD.RE-SULTS The detection data of UPLC-Q-TOF-MS showed that 152 components were found from SBJDD water extraction.41 chemical compounds were identified in plasma samples from rats administrated with SBJDD.Network pharmacology analysis indicated that during the CREI stage,the potential active ingredients in SBJDD,including epiberberine,and kushenol H,might affect target proteins such as PIK3CA,MAPK3 and PIK3CB.This,in turn,can influence signaling pathways like PI3K-AKT and Ras signaling pathways,and regulate biological processes like protein phosphorylation,and signal transduction.During the CRA stage,the potential active ingredi-ents from SBJDD,such as 3,7-dihydroxycoumarin,palmatine,and kushenol A,might affect target proteins such as AKT and EGFR.This can regulate the negative regulation of apoptotic process,and positive regulation of cell proliferation,and modify HIF-1,and Rap1 signaling pathways.During the progression of CRA carcinogenesis,potential active ingredients such as 3,7-dihydroxycouma-rin may interact with TP53,and impact the PI3K-AKT,and Thyroid hormone signaling pathways to regulate biological processes,in-cluding positive regulation of transcription from RNA polymerase Ⅱ promoter,and negative regulation of apoptotic process.In the CRC stage,core ingredients like p-coumaric acid may bind with proteins such as PRKCB.This binding may impact the signaling pathways that negatively affect EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor resistance,and PI3K-AKT signaling pathways.Additionally,it may regulate bio-logical processes,including negative regulation of apoptotic process,signal transduction,and protein phosphorylation.In vitro experi-ment results indicated that SBJDD inhibited the proliferation of HT29 cells and suppressed the expression of EGFR and PKC proteins.CONCLUSION The UPLC-Q-TOF-MS method is established to effectively separate the chemical constituents in SBJDD,which are mainly composed of alkaloids,organic acids and flavonoids components.Components from SBJDD dock with different targets during the carcinogenesis process of CRA and regulate cancer-related signaling pathways to exert therapeutic effects.

Objective To explore the trend in self-management efficacy and exercise compliance among patients within 6 months after radical resection of lung cancer and analyse the predictive correlation between the factors to provide references for improvement of exercise compliance in patients after lung cancer surgery.Methods Convenience sampling was used to select patients who had surgery of radical resection of lung cancer for the first time in the departments of thoracic surgery of two Grade IIIA hospitals in Nanchong between December 2022 and May 2023.The Chinese-version strategies used by people to promote health(C-SUPPH)and exercise compliance scale were employed to assess the self-management efficacy and patient exercise compliance at four time points:1 day before discharge(T1)and 1 month(T2),3 months(T3)and 6 months(T4)after surgery.A cross-lagged model was constructed to analyse the causal correlation between self-management efficacy and exercise compliance.Results Within 6 months after surgery,both of self-management efficacy and exercise compliance in the patients after radical resection of lung cancer were seen initially increased and then decreased(P<0.05).The cross-lagged model revealed that self-management efficacy and exercise compliance during the early postoperative period(TI-T2)exhibited reciprocal causation(β=0.254,P=0.003;β=0.332,P=0.007).Between T2 and T3,higher self-management efficacy positively predicted an increased exercise compliance(β=0.286,P<0.001).However,during T3 and T4,no predictive relationship was observed between the indicators(P>0.05).Conclusion The self management efficacy of patients after lung cancer sugery is at middle level and their exercise compliance is at low level.This study indicates that the initial levels of self-management efficacy and exercise compliance among patients after radical resection of lung cancer do not necessarily reflect a long-term trend.The predictive correlation between the two factors also varies over the time.Healthcare providers should consider the dynamic changes and individual differences across different stages after surgery,and implement timely and targeted intervention.
