OBJECTIVE To explore comprehensive management and potential issues associated with long-term prescriptions medications of psychiatry, in order to provide a reference for the comprehensive management of long-term prescriptions of psychiatry in psychiatric hospitals and other medical institutions’ pharmacies. METHODS Starting from the applicable principles for long-term prescriptions of psychiatry, this study introduced the standardized assessment and precautions before issuing long-term prescriptions, the formulation and adjustment of the drug list, as well as the rational management of the long-term prescriptions. It also analyzed potential issues that may arise in the comprehensive management of long-term prescription medications and proposed corresponding countermeasures and suggestions. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS Prior to initiating long-term prescriptions, a standardized assessment should be conducted on patients from the aspects of their psychiatric condition and long-term potential risk factors, pharmacological treatment plans and other non-pharmacological therapies, physical illnesses. Additionally, healthcare providers should fulfill their obligation to inform patients or their family members. The comprehensive management of long-term prescription medications should be jointly established and improved by multiple departments, and the formulation of drug catalogs should avoid including drugs with potential social harm or medication risks while complying with policy requirements. Furthermore, measures such as adding special identifiers to long-term prescriptions, providing patients with reminders about (No.YGLX202537) prescription expiration, or offering online consultations can also effectively enhance the rationality of medication use under long-term prescriptions. Currently, the implementation of long-term prescriptions in psychiatry remains challenged by inconsistencies in prescription duration, incomplete coverage of diagnostic categories, poor patient adherence, and the risk of deviation in clinical assessments. In this regard, measures such as collaborating with multiple departments to strengthen long-term prescription information management, providing matching pharmaceutical services, ensuring the quality and rationality of long-term prescription implementation, and using modern methods to screen high-risk patients can be taken to improve patient medication compliance and safety.

Objective:To analyze the efficacy and safety of daratumumab plus dexamethasone in the treatment of renal injury patients with light chain amyloidosis, and to provide clinical reference.Methods:It was a single center retrospective observational study. The clinical data before and after daratumumab treatment of renal injury patients with light chain amyloidosis treated with daratumumab plus dexamethasone from December 2021 to August 2022 were retrospectively collected. The hematologic response, kidney response, prognosis, and adverse events were analyzed. The treatment regimen was 16 mg/kg intravenous infusion of daratumumab on day 1 + 20 mg intravenous push of dexamethasone on day 1-2, once every 2 weeks. The follow-up was up to February 28, 2023.Results:The study included 18 patients, with age of (58.4±7.7) years old, and a male to female ratio of 11∶7. Eleven patients were newly diagnosed and 7 patients were retreated. There were 7, 5, 5 and 1 patients, respectively at the stage Ⅰ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ and Ⅳ of light chain amyloidosis according to 2012 Mayo stage criteria. The median course of disease before onset was 2.5 (1.0, 8.0) months and the follow-up time was (8.7±2.8) months. The patients received (10±3) times of treatment. The overall hematologic response rates were 9/13, 11/13 and 13/13 at 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months respectively after treatment, meanwhile 8/13, 10/13 and 12/13 achieved at least very good partial response at 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months respectively (the other 5 patients did not undergo detailed evaluation due to baseline difference of serum free κ and λ light chain <20 mg/L). The median duration of hematologic response was 16 (13, 40) days. At 3 months, 6 months and the end of follow-up, 10, 13 and 13 of 18 patients respectively achieved renal response, and the median duration of response was 66 (26, 182) days. During follow-up, the median difference of serum free κ and λ light chain decreased by 93% (72%, 97%). Until the last follow-up, one patient died of organ hemorrhage. Other infusion reactions, leukopenia, neutropenia and infection all improved after symptomatic treatments.Conclusion:Daratumumab plus dexamethasone treatment is effective for light chain amyloidosis nephropathy in inducing hematologic remission and kidney remission, with good safety.

Liver fibrosis is a dynamic wound-healing response characterized by the agglutination of the extracellular matrix (ECM). Si-Wu-Tang (SWT), a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) formula, is known for treating gynecological diseases and liver fibrosis. Our previous studies demonstrated that long non-coding RNA H19 (H19) was markedly upregulated in fibrotic livers while its deficiency markedly reversed fibrogenesis. However, the mechanisms by which SWT influences H19 remain unclear. Thus, we established a bile duct ligation (BDL)-induced liver fibrosis model to evaluate the hepatoprotective effects of SWT on various cells in the liver. Our results showed that SWT markedly improved ECM deposition and bile duct reactions in the liver. Notably, SWT relieved liver fibrosis by regulating the transcription of genes involved in the cytoskeleton remodeling, primarily in hepatic stellate cells (HSCs), and influencing cytoskeleton-related angiogenesis and hepatocellular injury. This modulation collectively led to reduced ECM deposition. Through extensive bioinformatics analyses, we determined that H19 acted as a miRNA sponge and mainly inhibited miR-200, miR-211, and let7b, thereby regulating the above cellular regulatory pathways. Meanwhile, SWT reversed H19-related miRNAs and signaling pathways, diminishing ECM deposition and liver fibrosis. However, these protective effects of SWT were diminished with the overexpression of H19 in vivo. In conclusion, our study elucidates the underlying mechanisms of SWT from the perspective of H19-related signal networks and proposes a potential SWT-based therapeutic strategy for the treatment of liver fibrosis.

In recent years, with the continuous development of in situ cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) and artificial intelligence (AI) technologies, the research of structural biology has undergone a paradigm shift. Structural analysis is no longer confined to isolated and purified biomolecules, and determination of high-resolution in situ structures directly within cells and tissues becomes feasible. Furthermore, structural analysis of the molecular landscapes of subcellular regions can be performed to gain a deeper understanding of the molecular mechanisms of living activities in the native functional context. Through determining in situ structures of various protein complexes within the cell, it is feasible to visualize the proteome with spatial and quantitative information, which is often referred to as visual proteomics. Emerging in situ structural methods represented by cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET) hold the promise to elucidate the three-dimensional interaction networks of the intracellular proteome and understand their activities in a systematic manner. To advance in situ cryo-EM/ET and visual proteomics in China, this review summarizes the new research paradigms and technological advances, showcases the superiority of new concepts and technologies with representative examples, and discusses the future prospects in the field.

Anti-tumor traditional Chinese medicine has a long history of clinic application, in which the star molecules have always been the hotspot of modern drug research, but they are limited by the solubility, stability, targeting, bioactivity or toxicity of the monomer components of traditional Chinese medicine anti-tumor star molecules and other pharmacokinetic problems, which hinders the traditional Chinese medicine anti-tumor star molecules for further clinical translation and application. Currently, the nanosystems prepared by supramolecular technologies such as molecular self-assembly and nanomaterial encapsulation have broader application prospects in improving the anti-tumor effect of active components of traditional Chinese medicine, which has attracted extensive attention from scholars at home and abroad. In this paper, we systematically review the research progress in preparation of supramolecular nano-systems from anti-tumor star molecule of traditional Chinese medicine, and summarize the two major categories and ten small classes of carrier-free and carrier-based supramolecular nanosystems and their research cases, and the future development direction is put forward. The purpose of this paper is to provide reference for the research and clinical transformation of using supramolecular technology to improve the clinical application of anti-tumor star molecule of traditional Chinese medicine.
