ObjectiveTo optimize the extraction method for polysaccharides from turnip（Brassica rapa）， and analyze and evaluate the primary structure of the isolated and purified turnip polysaccharide fraction（BP-1） and its hypoglycemic effects in diabetic zebrafish. MethodsTaking polysaccharide yield as the evaluation index， a semi-bionic extraction method was employed. Single-factor experiments and Box-Behnken response surface methodology were used to investigate three factors of solid-to-liquid ratio， extraction time and extraction temperature， in order to optimize the extraction process. BP-1 was isolated and purified using the Sevage method and DEAE-52 cellulose column chromatography. Structural characterization of the turnip polysaccharides was performed using ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometry（UV）， gas chromatography-mass spectrometry（GC-MS）， Congo red assay， and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy（FT-IR） to determine purity， monosaccharide composition， triple-helix structure， and functional groups. The microstructure of the polysaccharides was observed using scanning electron microscopy（SEM） and atomic force microscopy（AFM）. Zebrafish were divided into the blank group（adding E3 medium）， and BP-1-1， BP-1-10， BP-1-50， BP-1-200， BP-1-1 000 groups（adding BP-1 solutions at concentrations of 1， 10， 50， 200， 1 000 mg·L^-1， respectively）， and zebrafish embryos were subjected to a 96-hour exposure experiment. The maximum tolerated concentration of BP-1 in zebrafish was determined by evaluating its effects on phenotype， survival rate， malformation rate， and heart rate. Experimental animals were randomly divided into the blank group， model group， BP-1-10 group（10 mg·L^-1）， BP-1-50 group（50 mg·L^-1）， and BP-1-200 group（200 mg·L^-1）. The blank group was cultured in E3 medium， the model and treatment groups were induced to establish a diabetic model in 4 day-post-fertilization（dpf） zebrafish embryos using 10 g·L^-1 of glucose combined with 500 µmol·L^-1 of alloxan. The treatment groups received corresponding doses of BP-1 solution， while the blank and model groups received an equal volume of saline. Glucose and insulin（INS） levels were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay（ELISA） kits， the effects on the liver were observed by hematoxylin-eosin（HE） histopathological sections. The mRNA expression levels of glucagon（Glucagon）， insulin（Insa）， and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase 1（PCK1） were detected with real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction（Real-time PCR）. ResultsThe optimized extraction conditions were determined as follows：solid-to-liquid ratio of 1∶40（g·mL^-1）， extraction time of 66 min， and extraction temperature of 79 ℃. Under these conditions， the yield of turnip polysaccharides was （10.34±0.96）%. UV analysis indicated that BP-1 contained no proteins or nucleic acids， GC-MS analysis revealed that BP-1 consisted of six monosaccharides（arabinose， rhamnose， ribose， mannose， galactose and glucose）. Congo red assay indicated that the molecular conformation did not exhibit a triple-helix structure， FT-IR analysis showed the presence of α-glycosidic bonds and uronic acids， SEM analysis revealed an irregular flaky structure with a flat and smooth surface， AFM analysis suggested that the aggregated structure might be formed by the entanglement of molecular chains and intramolecular hydrogen bonding. The maximum tolerated concentration of BP-1 in zebrafish over 96 h was determined to be 200 mg·L^-1. Pharmacodynamic results showed that， compared with the blank group， the model group exhibited significantly increased glucose levels and significantly decreased INS levels（P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the BP-1-50 group significantly reduced glucose levels and increased INS levels（P<0.05）. Histopathological examination of liver tissue revealed that various doses of BP-1 had a certain reparative effect on damaged liver tissue. The liver tissue structure in the BP-1-200 group was nearly normal， with hepatocytes appearing plump. Real-time PCR results showed that， compared with the blank group， the model group exhibited significantly upregulated mRNA expressions of Glucagon and PCK1， and significantly downregulated mRNA expression of Insa（P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the BP-1-50 and BP-1-200 groups showed significantly downregulated mRNA expressions of Glucagon and PCK1， and significantly upregulated mRNA expression of Insa（P<0.01）. ConclusionThe semi-bionic extraction method for turnip polysaccharides yields a high extraction rate， is simple to operate， has low costs， making it suitable for large-scale industrial production. BP-1 consists of six monosaccharides， contains α-glycosidic bonds and uronic acids， exhibits hypoglycemic activity， and provides a certain protective effect on the liver of alloxan-induced diabetic model zebrafish.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of Brassica rapa polysaccharide （BRP） on the Toll-like receptor 4 （TLR4）/ myeloid differentiation factor 88 （MyD88）/nuclear factor-κB （NF-κB）， AMP-activated protein kinase （AMPK）/sterol regulatory element-binding protein-1c （SREBP-1c） pathways， intestinal microbiota and liver metabolism of mice with alcoholic liver injury， and preliminarily elucidate its mechanism for improving alcoholic liver injury. METHODS Seventy-two mice were randomly divided into blank group （normal saline）， model group （normal saline）， bifendate group （positive control， 300 mg/kg） and BRP low-， medium- and high-dose groups （75， 150 and 300 mg/kg）. They were given relevant medicine intragastrically， once a day， for consecutive 9 d. After the last administration， mice in all groups except the blank group were gavaged with white liquor to establish an alcoholic liver injury model. The levels of alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase in serum， total cholesterol， triglycerides， low-density lipoprotein cholesterol， interleukin-6， interleukin-1β， tumor necrosis factor- α and lipopolysaccharide， as well as protein expressions of TLR4， MyD88， NF-κB p65， phosphorylated NF-κB p65 （p-NF-κB p65）， AMPK， phosphorylated AMPK （p-AMPK）， and SREBP-1c were all detected； pathological morphological changes of liver tissue and colon were observed. 16S rRNA was used to detect the changes of intestinal microbiota in mice， and metabolomics 2022B02058） technology was used to detect the changes of liver metabolites. RESULTS Compared with model group， the above biochemical indicators and the protein expressions of TLR4， MyD88， p-NF-κB p65， and SREBP-1c in liver tissues were all significantly decreased （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）， while the protein expression of p-AMPK was significantly increased （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Pathological damage to liver and colon tissues was significantly improved. Medium dose of BRP could increase the relative abundance of Akkermansia， norank_f_Muribaculaceae and Lachnospiraceae_NK4A136_group in the intestinal contents of mice to a certain extent， and decrease the relative abundance of Lactobacillus and Escherichia-Shigella. A total of 9 differential metabolites were identified by metabolomics， including homogentisic acid， myristyl lysophosphatidylcholine， which were involved in pathways such as tyrosine metabolism. CONCLUSIONS BRP can regulate the relative abundance of beneficial flora， reduce the relative abundance of harmful flora， improve the structure of intestinal colonies， reduce the entry of pro-inflammatory mediator lipopolysaccharides into liver tissue， affect metabolic pathways such as tyrosine metabolism and the expression of TLR4/MyD88/NF- κB and AMPK/SREBP-1c signaling pathways in the liver， and ultimately improve alcoholic liver injury.

OBJECTIVES: To investigate the impact of prenatal fear stress on placental amino acid transport and emotion and cognition development in offspring rats. METHODS: Thirty pregnant Wistar rats were randomized equally into control and fear stress (induced using an observational foot shock model) groups. In each group, placental and serum samples were collected from 6 dams on gestational day 20, and the remaining rats delivered naturally and the offspring rats were raised under the same conditions until 8 weeks of age. Emotional and cognitive outcomes of the offspring rats were assessed with behavioral tests, and placental structure was examined using HE staining. Bioinformatics analysis was used to identify differentially expressed placental transporter genes under fear stress. The expressions of system A and system L amino acid transporters, along with other specialized transporters, were detected using qRT-PCR and Western blotting. Fetal serum amino acid concentrations were determined by HPLC. The correlations between fetal amino acid levels and behavioral outcomes of the offspring rats were analyzed. RESULTS: The dams with fear stress showed reduced open-field activity and increased freezing behavior with significantly decreased placental weight, fetal weight, and fetal-to-placental ratio. Bioinformatics analysis revealed 28 differentially expressed transporter genes involved mainly in amino acid transport. In the fear stress group, fetal serum amino acid levels were significantly lowered and Slc38a1, Slc43a1, Slc43a2, Slc7a8, Slc6a6, Slc1a1 and Slc6a9 mRNA and protein expressions were all downregulated. The offspring rats in fear stress group exhibited decreased novel object preference and spontaneous alternation with reduced open arm exploration and increased immobility in emotional tests. Lower early-life amino acid levels was found to correlate with impaired adult cognition. CONCLUSIONS Prenatal fear stress in rats impairs placental amino acid transporter expression and reduces fetal serum amino acid levels, potentially contributing to long-term cognitive deficits in the offspring rats.

Objective:To develop and validate a deep learning-based multimodal model integrating clinical and radiomic features for predicting acute kidney injury（AKI）risk after partial nephrectomy.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 416 patients who underwent partial nephrectomy at Zhongshan Hospital，Fudan University from January 2023 to January 2025. The cohort included 100 AKI patients［defined by a ≥ 25% reduction in postoperative evaluated glomerular filtration rate（eGFR）within 48 hours sustained for >24 hours］and 316 non-AKI patients（1∶3 ratio，randomly matched with 16 additional cases for redundancy）. Clinical and radiomic features were extracted from preoperative contrast-enhanced CT scans using PyRadiomics. Demographics included 259 males and 158 females，with a median age of 57（49，65）years，body mass index of（24.1 ± 3.3）kg/m2，preoperative eGFR of（88.5 ± 18.3）ml/（min·1.73 m2），postoperative eGFR（48-hour）of（76.0 ± 21.9）ml/（min·1.73 m2），Zhongshan Score（ZSscore）of 7.34 ± 2.01，and R.E.N.A.L. score of 7.50 ± 1.71. All tumors were T 1a stage. Patients were divided into training（n = 312）and test（n = 104）sets（3∶1 ratio）. A clinical model was constructed via multivariate logistic regression，while radiomic and combined（clinical + radiomic）models utilized an artificial neural network（ANN）with 1 input layer，5 hidden layers，1 output layer，and 10 5 training epochs. Model performance was evaluated by using receiver operating characteristic（ROC）curves and area under the curve（AUC），and was compared to the Martini model. Feature contributions were interpreted via SHapley Additive exPlanations（SHAP）. Results:In the test set，the results of multivariate logistic regression showed that patient’s weight，preoperative eGFR，R.E.N.A.L. score，surgical approach，and operation time were risk factors for AKI（ P < 0.05）. The AUC of the clinical feature prediction model constructed based on the above factors was 0.852（95% CI 0.775?0.929）. In the test set，the AUC of the Martini model was 0.725（95% CI 0.565?0.791）. The radiomic model，trained on 1 315 imaging features，achieved an AUC of 0.898（95% CI 0.804?0.993）with 94.2%（98/104）accuracy. The combined clinical and radiomic model，integrating 1 315 radiomic features and clinical features，demonstrated superior performance with an AUC of 0.946（95% CI 0.887?1.000）and 96.2%（100/104）accuracy，outperforming both the clinical model（ P = 0.03）and the Martini model（ P < 0.01）. SHAP analysis identified the top five predictors in the combined model：ZSscore（SHAP value：0.78），long-run low gray-level emphasis（SHAP value：0.61），run-length non-uniformity（SHAP value：0.58），size-zone non-uniformity（SHAP value：0.46），and gray-level co-occurrence matrix joint energy（SHAP value：0.36）. Conclusions:The deep learning-based multimodal model integrating clinical and radiomic features accurately predicts AKI risk after partial nephrectomy，offering a novel strategy for preoperative risk stratification and personalized intervention.

To evaluate the efficacy and safety of dye-free submucosal injection solution for gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD), a retrospective cohort study was performed on data of inpatients with early gastric cancer and precancerous lesions who underwent ESD at the Digestive Endoscopy Center of Jiangsu Province Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from January to December 2020. Cases were divided into dye-free submucosal injection solution group (the observation group) and dye-containing solution group (the control group). A total of 108 cases met the eligibility criteria for analysis (39 VS 69). Baseline characteristics were comparable between the two groups ( P>0.05). Compared with the control group, the observation group showed similar median procedure time (30.5 min VS 35.0 min), median dissection speed (0.3 cm2/min VS 0.4 cm2/min), mean volume of injection solution used (39.2 mL VS 38.8 mL), en bloc resection rate [100.0% (39/39) VS 98.6% (68/69)], and curative resection rate [97.4% (38/39) VS 97.1% (67/69)] (all P>0.05). Postoperative stay was 3.0±0.8 days in the observation group and 3.2±0.8 days in the control group ( t=-0.908, P=0.378). Delayed bleeding occurred in 3 (7.7%) patients VS 2 (2.9%) patients ( P=0.349), and postoperative infection occurred in 3 (7.7%) patients VS 8 (11.6%) patients ( P=0.743), respectively. In gastric ESD, dye-free submucosal injection solution demonstrates efficacy comparable with dye-containing solution and does not appreciably increase the incidence of intraoperative or postoperative complications.

Objective:To investigate the molecular mechanisms by which HMGB1 in lung cancer cells affects the function of lung cancer cells themselves and immune cells through the NF-κB pathway.Methods:Western blot detected HMGB1 expressions in Lewis lung cancer(LLC)cells,Raw264.7 cells,and mouse spleen cells,while tumor cell lysates(TCL)with low HMGB1 was pre-pared by inhibiting HMGB1 expression in lung cancer cells with glycyrrhetinic acid(GA);the effects of endogenous HMGB1 inhibi-tion or TCL with low HMGB1 on apoptosis and proliferation of lung cancer cells were detected by flow cytometry and CCK-8;TCL with normal HMGB1 or TCL with low HMGB1 was prepared by freeze-thawing;Raw264.7 cells and mouse splenocytes were treated with them for 48 h.Apoptosis and CD69 expression were detected by flow cytometry,and secretion of cytokines IL-2,IL-4,IL-6,TNF-α and TNF-β were detected by ELISA;Western blot detected lung cancer cells or immune cells.Western blot was performed to detect the protein expression of key signaling molecules of the NF-κB signaling pathway in lung cancer cells or immune cells.Results:HMGB1 was expressed in LLC cells,Raw264.7 cells,and mouse spleen cells,among which LLC cells had the highest expression of HMGB1,and 30 μg/ml GA had the best inhibitory effect on HMGB1 expression in LLC cells.Endogenous HMGB1 in LLC cells could promote cell proliferation.Exogenous HMGB1 in TCL induced apoptosis in lung cancer cells and inhibited immune cell activation and prolifera-tion.Inhibition of endogenous HMGB1 in lung cancer cells leaded to activation of the apoptosis-inducing factor CASP9 in the NF-κB signaling pathway,which was inhibited in lung cancer cells or immune cells after the action of TCL with low HMGB1.Conclusion:Tumor cell HMGB1 has a dual role in lung carcinogenesis,promoting the proliferation of lung cancer cells while suppressing the func-tion of immune cells,which in turn causes lung carcinogenesis,a process associated with the activation of the NF-κB signaling path-way in different cells.

Objective To investigate the effects of five-element music on depressive behaviors and intestinal flora in offspring of fear-stress rats during pregnancy.Methods Thirty-six 0.5-day pregnant Wistar rats were divided randomly into a control group,fear-stress group,and five-element music group,and the subsequent litters continued the maternal grouping.Pregnant rats in the fear-stress and five-element music groups were modeled on days 1～19 of gestation using the bystander electric method,while the five-element music group was also exposed to Feather Tune five-element music intervention.The fear behavior and serum glucocorticoid(GC)levels in pregnant rats were assessed on day 20 of pregnancy by open field test and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay,respectively,to evaluate the effectiveness of the model.Depression in 3-week-old offspring was evaluated by open field,tail suspension,and sucrose preference tests.Norepinephrine(NE),dopamine(DA),and 5-hydroxytryptamine(5-HT)levels in the hippocampus of the offspring were measured by high-performance liquid chromatography.Changes in the intestinal flora of the offspring were analyzed by 16S rRNA sequencing.Expression levels of the proximal colonic proteins claudin1,occludin,and ZO1 in the offspring were measured by Western blot assay.Results Pregnant rats in the fear-stress group stayed longer in the area around the open field(P＜0.05),had fewer entries into the central area(P＜0.001),and had higher serum GC levels compared with those in the blank group(P＜0.001).In contrast,five-element music exposure reversed these behavioral changes(P＜0.05)and serum GC levels(P＜0.001)in the fear-stress group.Offspring in the fear-stress group exhibited decreased open-field crossing frequency(P＜0.01),reduced sucrose preference index,and longer immobility time in the tail suspension test(P＜0.05),compared with those in the blank group,together with significantly decreased NE,DA,and 5-HT levels in the hippocampus(P＜0.05).Rats in the fear-stress group showed decreased diversity of the intestinal flora(P＜0.01)and significant alterations in flora structure,including higher abundance of Proteobacteria,Enterobacteriaceae,Enterococcus,and Escherichia(P＜0.05),and lower abundance of Spirochaetes,Spirochaetaceae,Lachnospiraceae,Ruminococcaceae,Treponema,Prevotella,Coprococcus,Allobaculum,Ruminococcus,and Dorea(P＜0.05).The proximal colonic proteins Claudin1,Occludin,and ZO1 were significantly downregulated(P＜0.05).The open-field crossing frequency,sucrose preference index,and duration of tail suspension immobilization were improved in the five-element music group compared with those in the fear-stress group(P＜0.05),while DA and 5-HT levels were significantly restored in the hippocampus(P＜0.05),species diversity of the intestinal flora increased(P＜0.01)and changes in the abundance of the flora were reversed,and the proximal colonic proteins Occludin and ZO1 expression were significantly upregulated(P＜0.05).Conclusions Five-element music intervention during pregnancy can ameliorate fear-stress-induced depression behaviors and intestinal flora disorders in the offspring.

Objective:To introduce the clinical application of "page-turning" superior pancreatic lymph node dissection in laparoscopic D2 radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer.Methods:Patients who were confirmed to have adenocarcinoma by preoperative gastroscopy and pathological biopsy, with tumor staging evaluated by imaging as cT1~4aN0~3M0, without neoadjuvant therapy, and without absolute surgical contraindications, underwent laparoscopic radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer with "page-turning" superior pancreatic lymph node dissection. The "page-turning" superior pancreatic lymph node dissection was performed in four steps: (1) Expose the posterior gastric mesentery and dissect No.11p lymph nodes; (2) Expose the left gastric mesentery and dissect No.7, No.8a and No.9 lymph nodes; (3) Expose the right gastric mesentery and dissect No.5 lymph nodes; (4) Expose the left edge of the portal vein and dissect No.12a lymph nodes.Results:From April 2018 to October 2024, 112 patients with gastric cancer underwent laparoscopic D2 radical gastrectomy with "page-turning" superior pancreatic lymph node dissection, including 21 cases in the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine, 78 cases in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine, and 13 cases in the Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery, Jilin Provincial People's Hospital. The TNM staging of all patients was as follows: 31 cases in stage Ⅰ, 24 cases in stage Ⅱ, and 57 cases in stage Ⅲ; 62 cases of differentiated adenocarcinoma and 50 cases of undifferentiated adenocarcinoma; the median length of tumors was 3.8 cm. All patients successfully completed the operation without conversion to open surgery, no intraoperative massive hemorrhage or postoperative death. The median total number of lymph nodes dissected in all patients was 32, and the median number of positive lymph nodes was 4.5. The overall postoperative complication rate was 5.4% (6/112), all of which were Clavien-Dindo grade Ⅱ, including pulmonary infection, pleural effusion, and incisional infection, all cured by symptomatic treatment. The median follow-up was 41.8 (2-78) months, with 7 cases lost to follow-up. During the follow-up period, 27 cases (25.7%) had tumor recurrence and 16 cases (15.2%) died.Conclusions:The "page-turning" superior pancreatic lymph node dissection technique is safe and feasible in laparoscopic radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer.
