Gastric cancer has high incidence and mortality rate. Chemotherapy is the first-line treatment for gastric cancer and has achieved considerable success. However, due to genetic variations and tumor heterogeneity, the effectiveness of chemothrapy drugs varies among different patients. Therefore, accurate assessment of patient’s sensitivity to chemotherapy drugs is crucial for personalized treatment. Gastric cancer organoids serve as effective tools for predicting patient’s sensitivity to chemotherapy drugs. This review summarizes the applications and related research progress of gastric cancer organoids in determining chemotherapy drug sensitivity, discusses the strengths and limitations of organoid models, and proposes outlooks for future research directions, hoping that organoids can provide more effective personalized treatment options and a greater range of drug choices for gastric cancer treatment.

Pulmonary vascular remodeling is the core pathological feature in the onset and pro-gression of pulmonary arterial hypertension(PAH).Currently,there is no well-defined therapeutic strategy that can effectively delay or reverse this process.Despite the widespread clinical application of targeted vasodilator drugs,patients still face a high risk of mortality and adverse cardiovascular e-vents,suggesting an urgent need to explore new pathological mechanisms and therapeutic targets.In recent years,the relationship between dyslipidemia and PAH has garnered increasing attention.This article aimed to review the role of lipid metabolism disorders in pulmonary vascular remodeling in pul-monary arterial hypertension and its underlying mechanism,with the hope of providing new interven-tion targets for the treatment of PAH,thereby improving patient survival rates and quality of life.

BACKGROUND:Currently,electrospun nanofibers,which are biomimetic materials of natural extracellular matrix and contain a three-dimensional network of interconnected pores,have been successfully used as scaffolds for various tissue regeneration,but are still faced with the challenge of extending the biomaterials into three-dimensional structures to reproduce the physiological,chemical as well as mechanical properties of the tissue microenvironment. OBJECTIVE:To summarize the process and principles of electrostatic spinning and to explore the applications of the resulting electrospun nanofibers in tissue regeneration of skin,blood vessels,nerves,bone,cartilage and tendons/ligaments. METHODS:With"electrospinning,electrospun nanofibers,electrospun nanofiber scaffolds,tissue regeneration"as the Chinese and English search terms,Google Academic Database,PubMed,and CNKI were searched,and finally 88 articles were included for review. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The electrospun nanofibers are a natural fibrous extracellular matrix mimetic material and contain a three-dimensional network of interconnected pores that have been successfully used as scaffolds for a variety of tissue regeneration applications.(2)Several papers have described the great potential of electrospun nanofiber scaffolds applied to the regeneration of skin,blood vessels,nerves,bones,cartilage and tendons/ligaments,providing a solid theoretical basis for its final application in clinical disease treatment,or for its transformation into practical products to enter the market.(3)However,the current research results are mostly based on cell experimental research results in vitro,and whether it can be finally applied to human body still needs clinical verification.(4)At present,many kinds of electrospun products for various clinical needs have been commercialized in and outside China,indicating that the research field of electrospun nanofiber scaffolds for soft and hard tissue regeneration has great research value and application potential.

BACKGROUND:Abnormal extracellular matrix accumulation and excessive proliferation of fibroblasts are the main manifestations of pathological scars.Excessive proliferation of fibroblasts leads to the production of large amounts of collagen-based extracellular matrix.Therefore,to investigate the role of fibroblast fibrosis in the formation of pathological scar will provide a new idea for revealing the mechanism of pathological scar and biological therapy. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of RAS-selective lethal small molecule 3(RSL3)on the fibrosis of human pathological scar fibroblasts. METHODS:Then cases of pathological scar tissue and normal skin tissue samples from the same individuals,provided by the Department of Burn Plastic Surgery,General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University,were collected.Fibroblasts of human pathological scar and human normal skin were extracted and used in the following experiments.The general condition of the pathological scar tissue and the normal skin tissue was detected by hematoxylin-eosin staining.The appearance of fibroblasts from pathological scar and normal skin were observed by inverted microscope.The fibroblasts were verified by immunofluorescence assay.The cells were treated with different concentrations of RSL3(1,3,5,7,9,11,13 μmol/L).The inhibitory concentration of RSL3 on fibroblasts was detected by cell counting kit-8.Control group(without treatment)and RSL3 intervention group(treated with 7 μmol/L RSL3 for 24 hours)were set up.The mRNA and protein expressions of glutathione peroxidase 4,type Ⅰ collagen,type Ⅲ collagen and α-smooth muscle actin were detected by Qrt-PCR and western blot,respectively.Level of malondialdehyde in cells was detected.The residual scratch area was measured by cell scratch test after 24 hours to calculate the percentage of residual scratch area. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The expression of glutathione peroxidase 4 in the pathological scar group was higher than that in the normal skin group(Mrna:t=3.252,P<0.01;protein:t=5.075,P<0.01).The expression of glutathione peroxidase 4 in the pathological scar fibroblast group was higher than that in the normal skin fibroblast group(Mrna:t=10.32,P<0.01;protein:t=26.22,P<0.01).Compared with the control group,the expression of glutathione peroxidase 4 was decreased(Mrna:t=2.798,P<0.05;protein:t=4.643,P<0.01),the content of malondialdehyde was increased(t=2.917,P<0.05),the expression of type Ⅰ collagen(Mrna:t=15.84,P<0.01;protein:t=4.610,P<0.01),type Ⅲ collagen(Mrna:t=28.86,P<0.01;protein:t=7.713,P<0.01)and α-smooth muscle actin(Mrna:t=2.671,P<0.05;protein:t=7.417,P<0.01)were decreased in the RSL3 intervention group.Compared with the control group,the migration ability was weakened in the RSL3 intervention group(t=14.06,P<0.01).To conclude,RSL3 can inhibit the expression of glutathione peroxidase 4 and then inhibit the ability of fibrosis and migration of pathological scar fibroblasts.

Objective:To observe the clinical efficacy of a new type of "firebreak" drainage with skin preservation in the treatment of Fournier's gangrene.Methods:This technique is suitable for patients with perianal necrotizing fasciitis who can tolerate surgery without large area of skin blackness and necrosis. Procedure and key points: (1) The dividing line between inflammatory tissue and normal tissue was determined according to imaging examination and intraoperative exploration; (2) The abscess cavity was cut along the most obvious part of the abscess fluctuation, with a long diameter of 3~4 cm and a short diameter of 1~2 cm; (3) Necrotic tissue was discreetly separated and removed from the main incision to the outer edge of the infection. A fusiform incision was made every 3 to 5 cm, with a long diameter of 2 to 3 cm and a short diameter of 1 cm, and discreetly separated until the normal tissue, and a hose was hung between the adjacent incisions for drainage. (4) Each adjacent edge cut between the stealth separation and hanging hose drainage, forming a "firebreak"; (5) Rinse the wound repeatedly; (6) If the infection invades the rectum, colostomy is performed as required. The case data of 11 patients with perianal necrotizing fasciitis admitted to the Second Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing University of Chinese Medicine from July 2019 to February 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients were treated with emergency surgical debridement by "firebreak" drainage with skin preservation.Results:All 11 cases were cured with 100%. One case underwent multiple operations. The hospitalization time was 11-46 days, with an average of 22 days. The wound healing time was 28-75 days, with an average of 43 days. Except for 1 patient with trauma, all the other patients had no significant anal function injury after surgery. All the 11 patients recovered and were discharged from hospital with a median follow-up of 136 (115-413) days.Conclusions:The "firebreak" drainage based on skin preservation has the advantages of less trauma and faster recovery, and do not cause obvious anal function damage.
