ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanism by which Shaoyaotang regulates the miRNA-155-mediated suppressor of cytokine signaling 1 （SOCS1）/Janus kinase 1 （JAK1）/signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 （STAT1） signaling pathway and thereby affects macrophage polarization. MethodsThe cell-counting kit-8 （CCK-8） assay was used to detect the effect of drug-containing serum of Shaoyaotang at different concentrations on the viability of RAW 264.7 cells. A cell model of inflammation was established by stimulating RAW264.7 cells with lipopolysaccharide （LPS） at a concentration of 10 mg·L^-1 The modeled cells were assigned by the random number table method into seven groups： LPS-induced M1 polarization （model）， M1+miRNA-155 mimics， M1+miRNA-155 inhibitor， M1+Shaoyaotang-containing serum， M1+miRNA-155 mimics+Shaoyaotang-containing serum， M1+miRNA-155 inhibitor+Shaoyaotang-containing serum， and M1+blank serum. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was employed to measure the levels of inflammatory factors ［tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）， interleukin-6 （IL-6）， and interleukin-1β （IL-1β）］. Immunofluorescence assay was used to detect the expression of macrophage polarization markers ［inducible nitric oxide synthase （iNOS） and macrophage mannose receptor 1 （CD206）］. Real-time PCR was employed to measure the expression of miRNA-155 in cells. Western blot was performed to determine the protein levels of SOCS1， STAT1， and JAK1. ResultsCompared with the LPS-induced M1 polarization （model） group， the M1+miRNA-155 mimics group showed up-regulated expression of miRNA-155， JAK1， STAT1， TNF-α， IL-6， IL-1β， and iNOS （P<0.05） and down-regulated expression of CD206 （P<0.05）. In both the M1+miRNA-155 inhibitor group and the M1+Shaoyaotang-containing serum group， the expression levels of miRNA-155， JAK1， STAT1， TNF-α， IL-6， IL-1β， and iNOS were down-regulated （P<0.05）， while those of SOCS1 and CD206 were up-regulated （P<0.05）. Compared with the M1+miRNA-155 mimics group， the M1+miRNA-155 mimics+Shaoyaotang-containing serum group showed down-regulated expression of miRNA-155， JAK1， STAT1， TNF-α， IL-6， IL-1β， and iNOS （P<0.05） and up-regulated expression of SOCS1 and CD206 （P<0.05）. Compared with the M1+miRNA-155 inhibitor group， the M1+miRNA-155 inhibitor+Shaoyaotang-containing serum group showed down-regulated expression of miRNA-155， JAK1， STAT1， TNF-α， IL-6， IL-1β， and iNOS （P<0.05） and up-regulated expression of SOCS1 and CD206 （P<0.05）. ConclusionShaoyaotang regulates macrophage polarization by modulating miRNA-155 expression and interfering with the SOCS1/JAK1/STAT1 signaling pathway. The findings provide new experimental evidence for the treatment of ulcerative colitis with Shaoyaotang.

ObjectiveTo investigate the potential role and underlying mechanisms of Shaoyaotang in intervening macrophage glycolytic reprogramming in ulcerative colitis （UC）. MethodsForty-eight C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into six groups： Normal control group， model group， mesalazine group （0.39 g·kg^-1）， Shaoyaotang group （15.54 g·kg^-1）， 2-deoxy-D-glucose （2-DG） group （glycolysis inhibitor， 100 mg·kg^-1）， and 2-DG + Shaoyaotang combined group （100 mg·kg^-1+15.54 g·kg^-1）. Except for the normal control group， mice in the other five groups were induced to establish UC models using dextran sulfate sodium （DSS）. The normal control group was administered pure water via intragastric gavage， while the other groups received intragastric gavage of mesalazine solution， intragastric gavage of Shaoyaotang， and the 2-DG group was treated with 2-DG via intraperitoneal injection. After 7 consecutive days of treatment， colonic tissues were extracted. Hematoxylin and eosin （HE） staining was performed to evaluate histopathological changes and tissue injury in the colon. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） was used to detect the expression of interleukin-10 （IL-10） and tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α） in colonic tissues. Western blot analysis was employed to determine the expression levels of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α （HIF-1α）， glucose transporter （GLUT1）， lactate dehydrogenase A （LDHA）， pyruvate kinase M2 （PKM2）， and 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2，6-biphosphatase 3 （PFKFB3） in colonic tissues. Immunofluorescence was conducted to detect the expression of CD206 and inducible nitric oxide synthase （iNOS） in colonic tissues. Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry （LC-MS） was utilized to measure lactate and citrate levels in colonic tissues. ResultsCompared with the normal control group， mice in the model group exhibited a significant increase in disease activity index （DAI） scores， accompanied by colonic mucosal congestion， edema， and inflammatory cell infiltration， significantly elevated expression of the inflammatory cytokine TNF-α （P<0.05）， significantly decreased IL-10 expression （P<0.05）， significantly increased levels of HIF-1α， GLUT1， LDHA， PKM2， and PFKFB3 in colonic tissues （P<0.05）， markedly elevated iNOS expression （P<0.05）， significantly decreased CD206 expression （P<0.05）， and significantly elevated lactate and citrate levels in colonic tissues （P<0.05）. In contrast to the model group， the Shaoyaotang group， inhibitor group， and Shaoyaotang combined with inhibitor group demonstrated amelioration of mucosal injury in colonic tissues， markely decreased expression levels of the inflammatory cytokine TNF-α （P<0.05）， elevated IL-10 expression levels， significantly decreased expression of HIF-1α， GLUT1， LDHA， PKM2， and PFKFB3 （P<0.05）， markedly reduced iNOS expression levels （P<0.05）， significantly increased CD206 expression （P<0.05） and significantly decreased lactate and citrate levels （P<0.05）. ConclusionShaoyaotang ameliorates symptoms of DSS-induced UC in mice， and its therapeutic mechanism may be associated with regulating macrophage glycolytic reprogramming via modulation of the HIF-1α signaling pathway.

ObjectiveTo investigate the role of microRNA-155-5p （miR-155-5p） in ulcerative colitis （UC） and study the molecular mechanism of Shaoyaotang in the treatment of UC by regulating miR-155-5p. MethodsForty-eight SPF-grade male C57BL/6 mice were selected and assigned via the random number table method into 6 groups （n=8）： A blank control group， a model group， a mesalazine （0.39 g·kg^-1） group， a Shaoyaotang （31.08 g·kg^-1） group， a Janus kinase 1 （JAK1） inhibitor （baricitinib， 10 mg·kg^-1） group， and a Shaoyaotang combined with inhibitor （baricitinib 10 mg·kg^-1 + Shaoyaotang 31.08 g·kg^-1） group. After successful modeling of UC by gavage of 3% dextran sulphate sodium solution， each group received corresponding drug intervention for 7 days. Shaoyaotang and mesalazine were administered by gavage， and baricitinib by intraperitoneal injection. Twenty-four hours after the last administration， mice were anesthetized by intraperitoneal injection of pentobarbital sodium， and blood was collected for determination of white blood cell count and erythrocyte sedimentation rate （ESR）. Mice were then sacrificed for measurement of colon length. Hematoxylin-eosin staining was used to observe colonic pathological changes and perform pathological scoring. Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） was employed to determine the relative expression of miR-155-5p in the colonic tissue， and Western blot was used to determine the protein levels of JAK1， phosphorylated JAK1 （p-JAK1）， suppressor of cytokine signaling 1 （SOCS1）， signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 （STAT1）， and phosphorylated STAT1 （p-STAT1）. ResultsCompared with the blank control group， the model group showed increased disease activity index （DAI） score and pathological score， shortened colon， upregulated relative expression of miR-155-5p and protein levels of p-JAK1 and p-STAT1， downregulated protein level of SOCS1 in the colonic tissue， prolonged time of erythrocyte sedimentation， and increased white blood cell count （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， all drug-treated groups exhibited improvements in the above indicators （P<0.01）. Moreover， the Shaoyaotang group showed better therapeutic effects than the mesalazine group in regulating miR-155-5p expression， related protein levels， DAI score， and colonic pathological score （P<0.01）. ConclusionShaoyaotang may downregulate miR-155-5p to relieve its inhibition on SOCS1， thereby suppressing the excessive activation of the JAK1/STAT1 signaling pathway and ultimately alleviating intestinal inflammatory damage.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) imposes a major health and economic burden worldwide, with disproportionate effects in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Surveillance in high-risk populations, typically using semiannual ultrasound and alpha-fetoprotein testing, has been shown to be cost-effective by enabling earlier detection and improving survival. Yet, its overall value is reduced by poor adherence and the limited sensitivity of ultrasound, particularly in patients with metabolic-associated steatotic liver disease. Emerging approaches—including abbreviated magnetic resonance imaging, multi-biomarker models (e.g., gender, age, AFP, AFP-L3, and DCP), and liquid biopsy assays such as methylated DNA markers—demonstrate greater diagnostic accuracy and potential economic advantages compared with conventional methods. Integration of artificial intelligence into imaging may further enhance efficiency and reduce downstream costs. Moving toward precision surveillance, guided by individualized risk stratification that incorporates etiology, fibrosis stage, and molecular profiles, can optimize allocation of resources and maximize cost-effectiveness at the population level. Interventions to improve adherence, including mailed outreach and behavioral economic incentives, have shown both clinical benefit and cost savings, underscoring the role of implementation science. Because socioeconomic disparities influence both access and outcomes, economic models must explicitly address equity to achieve sustainable impact. Future research should prioritize prospective trials that evaluate not only clinical performance but also the real-world cost-effectiveness of novel technologies and stratified surveillance strategies. For LMICs, adapting proven models into affordable, context-appropriate programs is essential. By combining prevention, precision risk assessment, innovative technologies, and equitable implementation, HCC surveillance can deliver both clinical and economic value, reducing the global burden of disease.

Objective: To explore the associations of sedentary behavior and physical activity with next day affective states in junior and senior high school students, so as to provide a reference for promoting affective health in the population. Methods: From March to April 2026, 137 junior and senior high school students aged 12-17 years were recruited from two junior and senior high schools in Tianjin using convenience sampling. The ActiGraph wGT3X-BT accelerometer was used to continuously monitor 24 hour activity behaviors, and screen sedentary time (SST) and non-screen sedentary time were distinguished in combination with daily time use diaries. Daily affect levels in junior and senior high school students were collected via the Positive and Negative Affect Schedule-Expanded Form, with moods classified into high /low arousal positive affect and high /low arousal negative affect. Bayesian multilevel compositional data analysis and isotemporal substitution analysis were employed to explore the associations and substitution effects of sedentary behavior and 24 hour activity behaviors with next day affective states in junior and senior high school students. Results: Bayesian multilevel modeling showed that the associations between 24 hour movement behaviors and nextday affect in junior and senior high school students were mainly evident at the within person level. SST was associated with lower next day high arousal positive affect ( β =-0.15) and low arousal positive affect ( β = -0.11 ), and with higher high arousal negative affect ( β =0.12); light physical activity (LPA) was associated with higher high arousal positive affect ( β =0.13), and moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA) was associated with lower low arousal negative affect ( β =-0.06) (all P <0.05). Dose response analysis showed that, at the within person level, the substitution effect between SST and LPA was the most pronounced. As the duration of reallocating SST to LPA increased from 10 min to 60 min, high arousal positive affect ( β =0.020-0.123) and low arousal positive affect ( β =0.010-0.061) showed upward trends, while high arousal negative affect ( β =-0.061 to -0.010) showed a downward trend (all P <0.05); although low arousal negative affect presented a decreasing trend, it did not reach statistical significance at any time point ( β =-0.041 to -0.007, all P >0.05). Among the other substitution relationships, reallocating SST to MVPA was accompanied by a decrease in low arousal negative affect ( β =-0.033 to -0.005 ), and reallocating SST to sleep was accompanied by a decrease in high arousal negative affect ( β =-0.029 to -0.005) (all P < 0.05). Conclusions The associations between 24 hour activity behaviors and next day affect in junior and senior high school students are mainly evident at the within person level. Reallocating an individual s daily SST to LPA or MVPA can improve next day affective states in junior and senior high school students.

Background The association between occupational physical activity (OPA) and cardiometabolic risk factors remains controversial, potentially due to differences in the associations between OPA and various cardiometabolic indicators, as well as the lack of a clearly defined optimal OPA range for multiple-indicator synergistic benefits. Objective To investigate the relationship between OPA and cardiometabolic risk factors in individuals at high risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in Hubei Province, and to explore an optimal OPA range for multi-indicator improvements. Methods Data were derived from the Hubei Province dataset of the China Health Evaluation And Risk Reduction Through Nationwide Teamwork from 2015 to 2023, including 19028 high-risk CVD individuals. OPA (metabolic equivalent·h·d⁻¹, MET·h·d⁻¹) was assessed using the China Kadoorie Biobank physical activity questionnaire, anthropometric measurements (height, weight, waist circumference) and cardiometabolic indicators (blood pressure, fasting blood glucose, lipid profiles) were measured. Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the association between logOPA quartiles (Q1-Q4) and abnormal cardiometabolic indicators, while restricted cubic spline (RCS) models were employed to explore their dose-response relationships. Subgroup and interaction analyses were also conducted by gender. Results The median OPA of all participants was 12.86 MET·h·d⁻¹ (male: 14.40 MET·h·d⁻¹, female: 11.14 MET·h·d⁻¹). After adjusting for confounders, compared with the Q1 group, logOPA in the Q4 group was associated with 20% (OR=0.80, 95%CI: 0.72, 0.89), 14% (OR=0.86, 95%CI: 0.78, 0.96), and 13% (OR=0.87, 95%CI: 0.79, 0.95) reduction in the risk of abdominal obesity, low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), and metabolic syndrome (MS), respectively, and 33% (OR=1.33, 95%CI: 1.18, 1.49), 33% (OR=1.33, 95%CI: 1.18, 1.50), and 38% (OR=1.38, 95%CI: 1.21, 1.57) increase in the risk of high total cholesterol (TC), high low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and high non-HDL-C, respectively. Similar trends were observed in males and females, with significant positive associations of logOPA with high TC and high non-HDL-C in males (P_interaction<0.05). The risk of low HDL-C decreased rapidly when logOPA was more than 2.213 (OPA>9.14 MET·h·d⁻¹), showing an inverted L-shaped trend. The risk of high TC, high LDL-C, and high non-HDL-C increased beyond logOPA thresholds of 3.244, 2.476, and 3.377 (OPA >25.64, 11.89, and 29.28 MET·h·d⁻¹), respectively, showing a J-shaped trend. However, logOPA exhibited a U-shaped nonlinear dose-response relationship with blood pressure and fasting blood glucose abnormalities (P_non-linear<0.05) , with minimal risks at logOPA 2.969 and 2.372 (OPA of 19.47 and 10.72 MET·h·d⁻¹). Conclusion OPA exhibits heterogeneous dose-response patterns across cardiometabolic indicators. Integrating the inverted L-, J-, and U-shaped association patterns, we suggest an optimal OPA range of 9.14−25.64 MET·h·d⁻¹ for multiple cardiometabolic indicators in total individuals at high-risk of CVD, with ranges of 9.61−31.34 MET·h·d⁻¹ for males and 8.97−22.87 MET·h·d⁻¹ for females. These findings provide critical evidence for developing OPA interventions strategies targeting high-risk population for CVD.

This study aims to establish the S_(180) tumor-bearing mice model, and to investigate the influence of Shenqi Erpi Granules(SQEPG) on immune function, as well as the drug's tumor-suppressive effect and mechanism. SPF grade KM mice(half male and half female) were randomly divided into 6 groups: a control group, a model group, a cyclophosphamide group(50 mg·kg~(-1)), as well as SQEPG groups in low-, medium-, and high-dose(5.25, 10.5, 21 g·kg~(-1)). The control group and the model group were given distilled water, and the other 4 groups were given the corresponding drugs by gavage. The administration continued for 10 days before the mice were sacrificed. The antitumor and immune regulation effects of SQEPG were evaluated. The effect of SQEPG on delayed type hypersensitivity reaction(DTH), carbon clearance index, and serum hemolysin antibody level was observed to reflect the effect on the immune function of tumor-bearing mice. Tumor weight was recorded to calculate the tumor suppression rate and the immune organ index. Hematoxylin-eosin(HE) staining was used to detect morphological changes in tumor tissues. Flow cytometry was employed to detect the percentage of CD4~+ and CD8~+ T-cells in the spleen tissues and the tumor tissue apoptosis levels. Immunohistochemistry was conducted to detect the KI67 protein expression level of tumor tissues. ELISA resorted to the detection of the following expression levels in tumor tissues: tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α), interleukin-2(IL-2), interferon-γ(IFN-γ). Western blot was performed to detect the expression levels of caspase-3, B-cell lymphoma-2(Bcl-2), Bcl-2-associated X protein(Bax), cyclin-dependent kinases 4(CDK4), G_1/S-specific cyclin D1(cyclin D1), and vascular endothelial growth factor A(VEGFA). The results showed that, compared with the model group, the SQEPG could increase the swelling of the auricle of the tumor-bearing mice; significantly increase the phagocytic index of carbon granule contour(P<0.05 or P<0.01), and the middle dose of SQEPG could significantly increase the antibody level of hemolysin(P<0.05); different doses of SQEPG significantly inhibit the growth of the tumor, and decrease the mass of the tumor tissues(P<0.05 or P<0.01); the low dose of SQEPG significantly decreased spleen index(P<0.05), low and high doses of SQEPG increased thymus index, while medium doses of SQEPG decreased thymus index. High doses of SQEPG significantly elevated the levels of CD4~+ and CD8~+ T-cells in the spleens of the homozygous mice(P<0.01 or P<0.001), and increased the apoptosis rate of the cells of the tumor tissues(P<0.05); Meanwhile, high-dose SQEPG elevated the levels of immunity factors such as IL-2, IFN-γ and TNF-α in the serum of tumor-bearing mice(P<0.01); medium-and high-dose SQEPG significantly lowered the rate of positive expression of KI67 protein in tumor tissues(P<0.01). Compared with the model group, high-dose SQEPG significantly up-regulated the expression of caspase-3 and Bax proteins in tumor tissues(P<0.05), and significantly down-regulated the expression of CDK4, cyclin D1, and VEGFA proteins(P<0.05 or P<0.01). In conclusion, SQEPG has the effect of improving immune function and inhibiting tumor growth in tumor-bearing mice. Its mechanism of tumor-suppressive effects may be related to apoptosis promotion, cell cycle progression block, and tumor cell proliferation inhibition.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the clinical features and risk factors associated with cutaneous chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in children. METHODS: A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of children who underwent allo-HSCT in the Wuhan Children's Hospital from August 1, 2016, to December 31, 2023, and were regularly followed up for 1 year or more. The differences in clinical features between children with and without cutaneous cGVHD were compared, and the risk factors affecting the occurrence of cutaneous cGVHD were analyzed. RESULTS: During the study period, 296 children received allo-HSCT. Until December 31, 2024, follow-up showed that 20 children (6.8%) developed cutaneous cGVHD, which manifested as cutaneous lichenification, hyperpigmentation, keratosis pilaris, sclerotic changes, and hair or nail involvement. According to their skin lesion area and degree of grading, 5 cases were mild, 10 cases were moderate, and 5 cases were severe. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that female donors and previous acute GVHD were risk factors for the development of cutaneous cGVHD after allo-HSCT. All 20 children were treated with glucocorticoid ± calcineurin inhibitors (tacrolimus/cyclosporine) as first-line therapeutic agents. Only 1 child improved after first-line treatment. The remaining 19 children treated with a second-line regimen of combination interventions based on individualized status, including 10 children who could not tolerate hormonotherapy or first-line treatment, and showed no significant improvement after 3 months, as well as 9 children with multi-organ cGVHD. After comprehensive second-line treatment, 17 children showed improvement in cutaneous symptoms. There were 3 deaths, including 1 due to primary disease recurrence and 2 due to pulmonary infections. CONCLUSION The skin is the first manifestation and most common organ involved in cGVHD in children. Cutaneous cGVHD severely affects the daily activities of transplanted children and requires prolonged immunosuppressive therapy, but has a favorable prognosis. First-line treatments for adults are not applicable to children who usually require a combination treatment with multiple drugs.

Fusion variations of neurotrophic receptor tyrosine kinase (NTRK) are oncogenic drivers in various solid tumors such as breast cancer, salivary gland carcinoma, infant fibrosarcoma, etc. Gene rearrangements involving NTRK1/2/3 lead to constitutive activation of the tropomyosin receptor kinase (TRK) domain, and the expressed fusion proteins drive tumor growth and survival. NTRK fusions are estimated to occur at a frequency of approximately 0.1% to 1% in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations are prevalent in NSCLC, but the frequency of EGFR G719A mutation is relatively low (about 2%), and EGFR mutations are typically mutually exclusive with NTRK fusion variants. The study presented the first documented case of lung adenocarcinoma harboring both EGFR G719A mutation and LMNA-NTRK1 fusion. A review of the literature was conducted to elucidate the role of NTRK fusion mutations in NSCLC and their relationship with EGFR mutations, aiming to enhance the understanding of NTRK fusion mutations in NSCLC.

Objective : To investigate the role of caspase recruitment domain-containing protein 9(Card9) inAspergillus fumigatus(A.fumigatus) keratitis and the effect of its deficiency on macrophage resistance to fungal infection. Methods : (1) C57BL/7 mice aged 6-8 weeks were selected and the mice pretreated Card9 siRNA and Blank siRNA, respectively, and the expression of Card9 in each group was detected by Western blot and RT-PCR. The corneal epithelium of the mice was scraped away 72 hours later, andA.fumigatusspore suspension was injected into the corneal stroma. The corneal scores were recorded at 1 d, 3 d, 5 d and 7 d after infection. The expression of Card9, nuclear factor κB(NF-κB), interleukin 1β(IL-1β), interleukin 6(IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor α(TNF-α) in each group was detected by RT-PCR and immunohistochemical(IHC).(2) Human corneal epithelial cells(HCECs) and human monocytic-leukemia cells(THP-1)in vitro, RT-PCR was used to examine the expression of Card9 gene in the two cells, and a stable cell line of THP-1 cells was constructed using shRNA vectors. The expression of Card9 in the cell line was detected by Western Blot and RT-PCR. The cells were induced into macrophages and stimulation byA.fumigatus, and the expression of Card9, NF-κB, IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α was detected by RT-PCR. Results : Card9 expression increased inA.fumigatuskeratitis, mainly distributed in cytoplasm of immune cells. The expression of Card9 in the cornea of mice treated with Card9 siRNA was significantly reduced. After inhibiting the expression of Card9 gene, the expressions of Card9, NF-κB, IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α significantly decreased and the changes of IL-1β were most significant. Inin vitrostudies, Card9 exhibited negligible expression in human corneal epithelial cells, contrasting with its pronounced expression in THP-1 cells. After the induction of macrophages, Card9, NF-κB, IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α were significantly upregulated under the stimulation ofA.fumigatus. After inhibiting the expression of Card9, the stimulated expression of these factors was significantly reduced, with the most notable change observed in IL-1β. Conclusion Card9 is involved in the inflammatory development and healing process ofA.fumigatuskeratitis. Card9 deficiency can cause functional impairment of macrophages and inhibit the expression of inflammatory factors to a certain extent, in which IL-1β has the greatest effect.
