ObjectiveTo investigate the differences in the regulatory effects of formulas containing Ephedrae Herba and Armeniacae Semen Amarum （Mahuangtang， Sanaotang， and Maxing Shigantang） on thermosensitive transient receptor potential ion channels （thermo TRPs） in the mouse model of asthmatic airway inflammation. MethodsSixty female C57BL/6 mice were allocated into blank， model， dexamethasone （0.75 mg·kg^-1）， Mahuangtang （3.8 g·kg^-1）， Sanaotang （2.8 g·kg^-1）， and Maxing Shigantang （6.6 g·kg^-1） groups （n=10）. The mouse model of asthma was established with ovalbumin （OVA） and treated with normal saline （blank group） or corresponding drugs （10 mL·kg^-1）， once a day， 19-28 days after modeling. The levels of eosinophils （EOS） in peripheral blood and white blood cell （WBC） in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid （BALF）， changes in enhanced pause （Penh）， and pathological damage of lung tissue were observed in each group. Western blot and real-time PCR were employed to quantify the protein and mRNA levels， respectively， of high-temperature thermosensitive channels （TRPV1 and TRPV3） and low-temperature thermosensitive channels （TRPA1 and TRPM8） in the lung tissue. ResultsCompared with the blank group， the model group showed a typical asthma phenotype， including elevations in the level of EOS in peripheral blood， level of WBC in BALF， and value of Penh （P<0.05，P<0.01）， and severe lung tissue damage. Compared with the model group， the three formulas alleviated the asthma phenotype to varying degrees （P<0.05，P<0.01）. Compared with the blank group， the model group showed up-regulated protein levels of TRPV1 and TRPA1 in the lung tissue （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， Maxing Shigantang and Sanaotang groups showed down-regulated protein levels of TRPV1 and TRPA1 （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Moreover， Maxing Shigantang and Sanaotang groups showed more significant down-regulation in protein levels of TRPV1 and TRPA1， respectively （P<0.01）， while no obvious regulatory effect was observed in the Mahuangtang group. Compared with those in the blank group， the protein levels of TRPV3 and TRPM8 were up-regulated in the model group （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， Maxing Shigantang and Sanaotang down-regulated the protein levels of TRPV3 and TRPM8 （P<0.01）. Moreover， Maxing Shigantang and Sanaotang exerted stronger down-regulating effects on TRPV3 （P<0.05） and TRPM8 （P<0.01）， respectively. Compared with the blank group， the model group presented up-regulated mRNA levels of TRPV1， TRPV3， TRPA1， and TRPM8 in the lung tissue （P<0.01）， and such up-regulations were significantly decreased by Maxing Shigantang and Sanaotang （P<0.01）. Moreover， Maxing Shigantang outperformed Sanaotang in regulating high-temperature thermosensitive channels TRPV1 and TRPV3 （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The regulation effect of the， Maxing Shigantang on high-temperature thermosensory channel proteins of TRPV1 and TRPV3 was better than that of the Sanaotang P<0.05P<0.01while the Sanaotang outperformedhad a significant regulatory effect on Maxing Shigantang in regulating the low-temperature thermosensory thermosensitive channel proteins of TRPA1 and TRPM8which was better than that of the Maxing Shigantang （P<0.05，P<0.01）. ConclusionThe experimental results showed that Mahuangtang， Sanaotang， and Maxing Shigantang all had protective effects on asthma airway inflammation.while Mahuangtang did not show the regulatory effect on TRPV1 and or TRPA1. Maxing Shigantang preferred to regulate high-temperature thermosensory thermosensitive channels of TRPV1 and TRPV3 channels， and Sanaotang preferred to regulate low-temperature thermosensory thermosensitive channels of TRPA1 and TRPM8.

Objective: To investigate the association between brain and muscle Arnt like protein 1( BMAL 1) gene and ambulatory blood pressure (ABP) parameters in college students, and to explore the influence of the interaction between the gene and weight status on the ABP levels, so as to provide reference for early prevention of chronic cardiovascular diseases related to hypertension. Methods: During September 2022 to June 2024, a total of 510 college students were recruited from a university in Changsha, China for on site questionnaire investigation, physical examination, ABP monitoring and genotyping testing. Multiple linear regression method was used to explore the association between the BMAL 1 gene and ABP indicators. An interaction term was included in the general linear model of multiple linear regression to analyze the interactive effects of BMAL 1 gene polymorphisms and weight status on ABP levels. Results: The prevalence of abnormal 24 hour blood pressure, abnormal daytime blood pressure, and abnormal nighttime blood pressure were 3.3%, 3.1%, and 3.9%, respectively. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that the BMAL 1/rs7950226 polymorphism was positively correlated with the 24 hour diastolic blood pressure(DBP) and the daytime DBP level after adjusting for gender, age, and body mass index( β =0.87,0.99, both P <0.05). Also, interaction between BMAL 1/ rs 11022775 and weight status on the nighttime DBP level ( P interaction =0.03) was found. The CC genotype carriers had significantly higher nighttime DBP level ( β =3.52, P <0.05) among overweight/obesity college students, but no differences in nocturnal DBP levels were observed between CC genotype carriers and TT+CT genotype carriers among college students with normal body weight( P > 0.05). Conclusions The rs 7950226 polymorphism is associated with 24 hours DBP and daytime DBP levels. Significant interaction between rs 11022775 with weight status on the nighttime DBP level is found among college students.

Objective To investigate the predictive value of edema metabolic and hematoma dynamics changes on motor and cog-nitive recovery outcomes in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage(ICH).Methods The CT data of ICH patients were collected to evaluate hematoma volume changes from admission to day 3.On day 3,multivoxel magnetic resonance spectroscopy(MRS)was per-formed with region of interest located in the edema region and contralateral normal tissue.Motor and cognitive function recovery was assessed using the simplified F-M scale and the Montreal cognitive assessment(MoCA)on day 3 and at the 3-month follow-up,respec-tively.Overall clinical outcomes were assessed using the Glasgow outcome scale(GOS),and all patients were divided into good and poor outcome groups.Clinical data and metabolic differences in the edema region between the two groups were compared,respec-tively.Logistic regression analysis and receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves were used to identify and evaluate independent prognostic factors.Subgroup analysis were performed via stratification of hematoma location.Results The logistic regression analy-sis indicated that intraventricular extension,hematoma changes,and the ratio of N-acetyl aspartate(NAA)around the hematoma to contralateral normal brain parenchyma NAA(rNAA)were inde-pendent prognostic factors for poor outcomes(P＜0.05).The area under the curve(AUC)for each factor and the combined model were 0.69,0.73,0.79,and 0.82,respectively.In patients with ICH in the basal ganglia region,△F-M was negatively correlated with hematoma changes and positively correlated with rNAA value(P＜0.001).In patients with ICH in the thalamic and lobar regions,△MoCA was not significantly correlated with hematoma changes(P＞0.05),but was positively correlated with rNAA value(P＜0.001).Conclusion The rNAA holds predictive value for motor and cognitive recovery outcomes following standard treatment.

Breast cancer is a highly prevalent malignant tumor among women worldwide,and its clinical treatment faces significant challenges,such as high postoperative recurrence rates,high metas-tasis rates,and therapeutic resistance.Studies indicate that monocyte-derived immune cells play a critical role in promoting breast cancer progression by establishing an immunosuppressive tumor microenviron-ment and pre-metastatic niche.Monocytic myeloid-derived suppressor cells,tumor-associated macro-phages,and monocyte-derived dendritic cells secrete various cytokines,including interleukins,colony-stimulating factors,tumor necrosis factor,chemokines C-C motif chemokine ligand/C-X-C motif chemo-kine ligand(CCL/CXCL),and growth factors,which activate multiple signaling pathways and promote the development of breast cancer and its metastasis to such organs as bones,lungs,brains and livers through mechanisms involving CCL/CXCL-mediated recruitment,angiogenesis induction,and immune evasion.Therefore,targeting the regulation of monocyte-derived immune cells and their secreted cyto-kines may become a crucial therapeutic approach to breast cancer.This review summarizes the mech-anisms by which monocyte-derived immune cells and their cytokines contribute to the development and metastasis of breast cancer by exploring.It further explores therapeutic strategies targeting these cells and cytokines,such as modulating phenotypic transformation,reprogramming cellular metabolism,and regulating cytokine expression levels.
