Against the backdrop of the rapid development of multicenter and interdisciplinary collaboration in medical research， establishing a standardized and efficient ethical collaborative review and mutual recognition system constitutes not only an urgent priority for advancing multi-institutional joint research but also a crucial measure in response to national policy orientations. Based on Jiangsu Province’s innovative practices in the field of ethical collaborative review， and through an analysis of common challenges in this field globally， this paper systematically put forward implementation strategies to ensure review quality and efficiency. These strategies encompassed establishing a regional ethics alliance to achieve resource integration and constructing supporting legal frameworks to strengthen institutional guarantees. Meanwhile， it was also crucial to enhance team professionalism， optimize multi-party collaboration models， and establish sustainable communication mechanisms， ultimately forming a scalable collaborative development framework for ethical review. The research outcomes can provide decision-making references and operational paradigms for the optimization and upgrading of the cross-institutional medical research ethics management system in China.

To investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying the mechanosensitive ion channel PI-EZO2 in osteoarthritis(OA),we developed a lentiviral vector for endogenous PIEZO2 overexpression and established a stable PIEZO2-high-expressing immortalized human primary chondrocyte line.By map-ping the open reading frame of the PIEZO2 locus and designing sequence-specific sgRNA,we employed the CRISPR/Cas9 synergistic activation mediator(SAM)system to precisely integrate transcriptional ac-tivation elements into the PIEZO2 promoter region.Lentiviral-mediated targeted genomic integration en-sured endogenous PIEZO2 overexpression,confirmed by mCherry fluorescence tracing coupled with flow cytometric sorting,which revealed membrane-specific localization of PIEZO2 protein(localization effi-ciency:78.49％).Quantitative PCR demonstrated a 17-fold upregulation of PIEZO2 mRNA,while Western blotting validated enhanced membrane-localized protein expression.Strikingly,PIEZO2-overex-pressing chondrocytes exhibited hallmark OA metabolic phenotypes compared to wild-type controls:typeⅡ collagen mRNA expression decreased to 50％of baseline levels,whereas matrix metalloproteinase 13(MMP13)mRNA surged by 20-fold.These alterations recapitulated the pathological matrix metabolic phenotype observed in biomechanical OA models induced by cyclic mechanical stress(10％strain,0.5 Hz,8 h/day for 2 consecutive days).Collectively,we successfully generated a human chondrocyte model with stable PIEZO2 overexpression,which faithfully mirrors mechanotransduction-driven OA progression.This engineered cellular system provides a robust platform for dissecting PIEZO2-mediated mechanosig-naling networks and advancing targeted therapeutic discovery.

Aim To investigate the effect of linarin on improving cognitive behavior of APP/PS1 mice,and to explore the therapeutic effect of linarin on A β deposi-tion and neuroinflammation and its correlation.Meth-ods APP/PS1 transgenic mice were randomly divid-ed into the model group,high-dose group,medium-dose group,low-dose group and positive control group.C57BL/6J mice were set as the normal group.Morris water maze was used to evaluate the learning and mem-ory abilities of mice.TUNEL staining was used to de-tect the apoptosis of neurons in the CA1 region of mice.IHC was used to detect the expression levels of Aβ42 and GFAP.Western blot was used to detect the expression levels of BACE1 and PS-1.Results Com-pared with the normal group,mice of the model group showed lower NCP,shorter target quadrant travel,less target quadrant residence time percentage(all P＜0.01),higher apoptosis rate of neurons in the CA1 re-gion(P＜0.01),significantly higher protein expres-sion levels of A β42 and GFAP(all P＜0.01),and significantly higher protein expression levels of BACE1 and PS-1(all P＜0.01).Compared with the model group,the medium-dose group,high-dose group and positive control group showed higher NCP,longer tar-get quadrant travel,more target quadrant residence time percentage(all P＜0.05),lower apoptosis rate of neurons in the CA1 region(P＜0.01),significantly lower protein expression levels of A β42 and GFAP(all P＜0.01),and significantly lower protein expression levels of BACE1 and PS-1(all P＜0.01).Conclu-sions Linarin can inhibit two key enzymes to reduce the decomposition of APP and the generation of A β42,thereby inhibiting the activation of astrocytes,allevia-ting neuroinflammation,improving the core pathologi-cal features of AD,and thus significantly improving learning and memory impairment in APP/PS1 mice.

Infiltration of a large number of inflammatory cells in the synovial tissue of rheumatoid arthritis(RA)promotes vascu-lar neovascularisation and the formation of aggressive pannus,which ultimately lead to bone erosion and cartilage destruction,causing irreversible damage to the joints.Numerous studies have demonstrated the role of proangiogenic factors such as growth factors,adhesion factors,angiopoietin 2,matrix metalloproteinas-es,and macrophage migration inhibitory factors in stimulating vascular opacification formation during RA progression.In re-cent years,a variety of traditional Chinese medicines have dem-onstrated inhibitory effects on the formation of pannus.In this paper,we elucidate the mechanism of pro-angiogenic factors in RA and review the latest research results on traditional Chinese medicines that inhibit the formation of pannus through the above mechanisms,so as to provide more research ideas for the treat-ment of RA.

Congenital microtia is a significant birth defect affecting the external ear. Currently, reconstruction of auricle has become a mature method for repairing microtia. Autologous rib cartilage is the preferred material for external ear support due to its favorable histocompatibility after implantation, no rejection, easy accessibility, facile contouring and low infection rate. Moreover, it is widely applied in the domains of ear reconstruction and rhinoplasty. Current primary approaches to external ear reconstruction include skin and soft tissue expansion, as well as non-expansion techniques. However, due to the intricate structural modifications required in these procedures, it is a challenge to avoid the complications. Postoperative complications associated with non-expansion external ear reconstruction include hematoma, infection, wire suture exposure, flap ischemia and necrosis, cartilage scaffold exposure, cartilage scaffold resorption, eczema, and cranio-auricular angle contracture. In cases of post-expansion external ear reconstruction, complications may include hematoma at the expansion site, infection, incision dehiscence, expansion flap necrosis, leakage or malfunction of the expander, expander exposure, and retraction of the expansion flap. Thoracic complications related to incised costal cartilage include deformity, pain, pneumothorax, and scarring. This study details the prevention and management of the aforementioned complications, aiming to serve as a reference for clinical treatment practices.
