The drug resistance in the treatment of solid tumors is closely related to abnormalities in the tumor vascular microenvironment (TVM). The TVM is dynamically composed of multiple stromal, vascular, and immune cell populations together with extracellular matrix. Its structural disorder and functional imbalance can lead to abnormal angiogenesis, perfusion disorders, limited drug delivery, and insufficient immune cell infiltration, thereby creating a microenvironment conducive to tumor progression and treatment resistance. Therefore, the coordinated regulation of TVM through vascular normalization and immune remodeling has become an important research direction for improving the treatment effect of solid tumors. Tumor necrosis factor superfamily member 14 (TNFSF14), also known as LIGHT (homologous to lymphotoxin, inducible, competes with herpes simplex virus (HSV) glycoprotein D for herpesvirus entry mediator (HVEM), expressed by T lymphocyte), is an important molecule connecting tumor vascular remodeling and immune regulation. LIGHT can bind to the lymphotoxin β receptor (LTβR) to activate the NF-κB (nuclear factor kappa B)-related signaling pathway, regulate the functions of vascular endothelial cells and stromal cells, and induce the expression of adhesion molecules and chemokines such as VCAM-1(vascular cell adhesion molecule 1), ICAM-1(intercellular adhesion molecule 1), CCL19 (C-C motif chemokine ligand 19), CCL21 (C-C motif chemokine ligand 21), and CXCL13 (C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 13), promoting the formation of high endothelial venules (HEVs). HEVs can improve the vascular access of immune cells into tumor tissues and further promote the formation of tertiary lymphoid structures (TLS), providing a structural basis for the recruitment of effector T cells and sustained anti-tumor immune responses. At the same time, LIGHT interacts with HVEM to provide costimulatory signals to T cells, enhancing their activation, proliferation, and cytotoxic function. Thus, LIGHT can link tumor vascular normalization, immune cell recruitment, and T cell activation through the dual actions mediated by LTβR and HVEM, forming a coordinated regulation model of “vascular remodeling-immune infiltration-immune activation”, providing new molecular targets for the treatment of solid tumors. Despite LIGHT’s good anti-tumor potential, its therapeutic application is still limited by factors such as insufficient stability in vivo, short half-life, and potential off-target effects due to systemic exposure. In recent years, researchers have developed various strategies for the precise delivery of LIGHT, including fusion proteins, bacterial vectors, viral vectors, nanoparticles, chimeric antigen receptor T cells (CAR-T), and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), to enhance the enrichment, expression, or sustained release of LIGHT in tumor sites through different approaches, thereby improving its therapeutic efficacy and safety. This article systematically reviews the structural characteristics, biological functions, and molecular mechanisms mediating TVM remodeling by LIGHT, with a focus on the signal transduction mediated by LTβR and HVEM and their roles in tumor immune regulation. Subsequently, it systematically outlines the molecular mechanisms by which LIGHT regulates the tumor vascular microenvironment and its intrinsic connection with immune cell recruitment and activation, from the perspectives of TVM abnormalities, vascular normalization, HEV formation, and TLS induction. Furthermore, it categorizes and summarizes precise delivery strategies such as LIGHT fusion proteins, bacterial vectors, viral vectors, nanoparticles, CAR-T cells, and MSCs according to delivery vectors and modes of action, and compares their functional characteristics, antitumor effects, and potential advantages and limitations. On this basis, the article further discusses the key issues that LIGHT therapeutic strategies still face in terms of targeting, controllability,in vivo stability, safety, and clinical translation, and anticipates the potential value of its combination with immune checkpoint inhibitors, anti-angiogenic therapy, and other tumor treatment methods. This article aims to deepen the understanding of the antitumor mechanism of LIGHT from the perspective of synergistic regulation of tumor vascular microenvironment remodeling and immune activation, providing theoretical basis and new research ideas for the design of solid tumor treatment strategies based on precise regulation of TVM and the clinical translation of LIGHT-related treatment systems.

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is characterized by chronic relapsing intestinal inflammation and encompasses ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD). IBD has emerged as a global healthcare problem. Clinically efficacious therapeutic agents are deficient. This study concentrates on models of ulcerative colitis with the objective of discovering novel therapeutic strategies. Previous investigations have established that schisandrin A demonstrates anti-inflammatory effects in vitro, concurrently enhancing the transcriptional activity of farnesoid X receptor (FXR). FXR inversely modulates the transcriptional activity of NF-κB, which has an important role in regulating inflammatory responses. Consequently, the current study was to explore the safeguarding influence of schisandrin A on ulcerative colitis and delineate the mechanism by which it regulates this effect through the FXR signaling pathway. The effect of schisandrin A on the mRNA levels of inflammatory factors was evaluated in RAW264.7 cells. The dual luciferase reporter gene assay was used to verify the relationship between schisandrin A and FXR targeting. The animal experiments were performed in accordance with the regulations of the Animal Ethics Committee of Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine (approval No. PZSHUTCM2304250005). Acute ulcerative colitis was induced in wild-type or FXR knockout C57BL/6 mice by drinking 3% dextran sodium sulfate (DSS) for 7 days, and schisandrin A was administered via gavage for a continuous treatment period of 7 days. The body weight and faecal were monitored daily. The mRNA levels of inflammatory factors in colon tissue and FXR target genes were measured by RT-qPCR. The findings revealed that schisandrin A, in vitro, impeded the lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced elevation in mRNA levels of inflammatory factors and schisandrin A could augment transcriptional activity of FXR. In wild-type mice, schisandrin A significantly improved weight loss, colon shortening, loose stools and blood in stools in mice with acute ulcerative colitis, and schisandrin A significantly reduced the expression of pro-inflammatory factors genes and significantly increased the expression of FXR target genes in colon tissues. In FXR knockout mice, the administration of schisandrin A failed to yield ameliorative effect on acute ulcerative colitis in mice. In conclusion, schisandrin A can reduce intestinal inflammation through the FXR signaling pathway to alleviate acute ulcerative colitis in mice. Implications arise that Schisandra lignans could serve as lead compounds for drug development aimed at inflammatory bowel disease.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)in the treatment of male im-mune infertility(MII)by meta-analysis.Methods:We retrieved randomized controlled trial(RCT)on the treatment of male im-mune infertility with traditional Chinese medicine from the databases of WanFang,Chinese Biomedical Literature,Cochrane Library,Weipu,PubMed and CNKI,and performed methodological quality assessment of the RCTs identified and statistical analysis and evalua-tion of the publication bias using the RevMan5.4 software.Results:Totally,25 RCTs(2 563 cases)were included in this study.Compared with Western medicine alone in the treatment of MII,TCM achieved a significantly higher total effectiveness rate(OR=6.35,95% CI:4.96-8.13,P<0.000 01),negative conversion rate of seminal plasma anti-sperm antibodies(OR=4.52,95% CI:2.72-7.51,P<0.000 01),negative rate of serum anti-sperm antibodies(OR=2.98,95% CI:2.23-3.96,P<0.000 01),sperm concentration(MD=15.56,95% CI:11.32-19.79,P<0.000 01),grade a sperm motility(MD=3.85,95% CI:1.91-5.79,P=0.000 01),grade a+b sperm motility(MD=13.77,95% CI:7.06-20.48,P<0.000 1),sperm viability(MD=10.32,95% CI:6.78-13.86,P<0.000 01)and pregnancy rate(OR=3.53,95% CI:2.68-4.63,P<0.000 01),but a lower rate of adverse reactions(OR=0.06,95% CI:0.01-0.23,P<0.000 01).There was no statistically significant difference in the percentage of morphologically abnormal sperm between TCM and Western medicine alone in the treatment of MII(MD=-7.53,95% CI:-15.50-0.44,P=0.06).Conclusion:TCM has a definite effectiveness and high safe in the treatment of male immune infertility.

Post-endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography pancreatitis(PEP)is one of the most common complications after endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography(ERCP).Numerous PEP prediction models have been established based on different statistical methods at home and abroad.The PEP prediction model,as a tool for evaluating and screening high-risk populations,can provide a basis for medical staff to find high-risk PEP patients early and take effective preventive measures.In recent years,new PEP prediction models have appeared one after another,but there is still a lack of recognized reliable prediction models in clinic.This article reviews the research status of PEP risk prediction models,aim to provide a direction for establishing a more reliable,accurate,and practical PEP risk prediction model in the later period.

Objective To investigate the role of magnesium ion(Mg2+)in cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury(Cis-AKI)in kidney organoids and HK-2 cells,as well as the potential mechanism.Methods Initially,we utilized human-derived induced pluripotent stem cells(iPSCs)to construct kidney organoids,and then built a Cis-AKI model based on kidney organoids.HE staining was used to observe the structure of kidney organoids,and immunofluorescence staining was used to observe the localization of markers and the expression of cleaved caspase-3.qRT-PCR was conducted to detect mRNA levels of tubular and glomerular markers,as well as inflammatory factors.Subsequently,the kidney organoids were randomly divided into control group,cisplatin group(Cis group),and Mg2+pretreatment group(Cis+Mg2+group).CCK-8 and ATP content assays were employed to evaluate the cell viability of renal tubular epithelial cells.TUNEL staining was performed to detect the apoptosis of renal tubular epithelial cells.Western blot was utilized to detect the expression of apoptosis-associated proteins(Bcl-2,Bax,cleaved caspase-3)and organic cation transporter 2(OCT2).Immunofluorescence was used to detect the localization and expression of OCT2.Results On the 10th day,the tubular structure in kidney organoids was visible,with abundant expression of renal markers.Treatment with 10 μmol/L cisplatin resulted in structural damage to kidney organoids,significantly increased expression of cleaved caspase-3 and mRNA levels of inflammatory factors,and significantly decreased ATP content.Compared with the Cis group,the Cis+Mg2+group showed increased ATP content in kidney organoids,reduced number of TUNEL-positive cells,significantly decreased expression of apoptosis-associated proteins,and significantly decreased expression of OCT2.However,there was no significant improvement in HK-2 cell viability,the number of TUNEL-positive cells,or apoptosis-associated proteins in the Cis+Mg2+group,and HK-2 cells did not express OCT2.Conclusion Kidney organoid is an ideal in vitro model to study the pathogenesis and treatment of Cis-AKI.Mg2+pretreatment can significantly reduce the damage of kidney organoids induced by cisplatin,and the mechanism may be related to the downregulation of OCT2.
