OBJECTIVE To explore the mechanism by which Gongfa Static Training regulates mitophagy through the PTEN-in-duced kinase 1(PINK1)/Parkin pathway in skeletal muscle insulin resistance in type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM).METHODS T2DM mouse model was established using a high-fat diet combined with streptozotocin(STZ)intraperitoneal injection.Mice were ran-domly divided into a model group,a metformin group,an aerobic exercise group,and a Gongfa Static Training group.The intervention effects of Gongfa Static Training were evaluated by measuring fasting blood glucose,Homeostatic Model Assessment of Insulin Resist-ance(HOMA-IR),glycated hemoglobin(HbA1c),lipid metabolism indicators,mitochondrial function in the gastrocnemius muscle,and the expression of PINK1 and Parkin-related genes and proteins.RESULTS Gongfa Static Training significantly reduced fasting blood glucose,HbA1c,and insulin resistance index in T2DM mice,improved lipid metabolism,and enhanced insulin sensitivity.It improved the structure and function of mitochondria in the gastrocnemius muscle by upregulating the mRNA and protein expression of PINK1 and Parkin.CONCLUSION Gongfa Static Training improves mitochondrial function and insulin resistance in the skeletal muscle of T2DM mice by regulating the PINK1/Parkin pathway.

Postoperative infection of internal fixation of closed fractures the lower limbs in adults represents a devastating complication, characterized by diagnostic challenges, prolonged treatment duration and high disability rates. Current management of these infections faces multiple challenges, such as difficulties in early accurate diagnosis, and various controversies about the treatment plan, leading to poor overall diagnosis and treatment results. To address these issues, based on evidence-based medicine and principles with emphasis on scientific rigor, clinical applicability and innovation, the Trauma Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, Orthopedic Branch of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Orthopedics Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, and Trauma Orthopedics and Polytrauma Group of the Resuscitation and Emergency Committee of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association have collaboratively organized a panel of relevant experts to develop the Guideline for diagnosis and treatment of infection after internal fixation of closed lower limb fractures in adults ( version 2025). The guideline proposed 10 recommendations, aiming to provide a foundation for standardized diagnosis and treatment of postoperative infection in adults with closed lower limb fractures.

Membrane protein degradation is a cutting-edge field in targeted protein degradation (TPD). Herein, we developed glypican-3 (GPC3)-mediated lysosome-targeting chimeras (GLTACs) as a novel strategy for the targeted degradation of tumor-specific membrane proteins. GLTACs utilize tumor-specific expression and endocytosis properties of GPC3 to degrade membrane proteins. By conjugating a GPC3-targeting peptide with the ligand of protein of interest (POI), GLTACs induce the formation of a ternary complex that is internalized into lysosomes, leading to the degradation of the POI. The effectiveness and specificity of GLTACs were validated by designing PD-L1, c-Met, and FGFR1 degraders. In particular, GLTAC WP0 potently degraded PD-L1 and induced T-cell-mediated tumor killing against HepG2 cells, highlighting the potential therapeutic applications. The development of GLTAC technology expands the scope of TPD strategies and opens new avenues for discovering novel therapeutic modalities against challenging protein targets.

Objective:To explore the clinical significance of skeletonized lymph node dissection of No.12 lymph nodes after neoadjuvant therapy in patients with advanced gastric cancer.Methods:For this retrospective case-cohort study we collected data from patients with advanced gastric cancer who underwent neoadjuvant chemotherapy and D2 or more extensive curative resection including No.12 lymph node dissection at the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from January, 2011 to December, 2022. Patients were divided into two groups based on whether they received skeletonized dissection of No.12 lymph nodes: 177 cases were in the skeletonized group, and 55 cases were in the nonskeletonized group. The differences of prognosis between the two groups were compared, and logistic regression models were used to analyze the factors affecting No.12 lymph node metastasis in the overall cohort and No.12b or No.12p lymph node metastasis in the skeletonized group.Results:A total of 232 patients were included, with 84 females (36.2%) and 148 males (63.8%), with an average age of 56.4±11.6 years. The proportion of female and ycT4 patients was significantly higher in the skeletonized group than in the nonskeletonized group (both P<0.05). Among all 232 patients, No. 12a metastasis occurred in 14 cases (6.0%). In the skeletonized group of 177 patients, No. 12b and No. 12p metastases were observed in 6 patients each (3.4%), and 4 patients had concurrent metastases in both No. 12b and No. 12a. The 5-year overall survival (OS) rates were 45.5% in the skeletonized group and 42.8% in the nonskeletonized group, with no statistical difference (HR=0.755, 95%CI: 0.488-1.168, P=0.580). The 5-year disease-free survival (DFS) rates were 39.8% and 41.0%, respectively, also with no statistical difference (HR=0.775, 95%CI: 0.513-1.172, P=0.584). 5-year OS for patients without No.12 lymph node metastasis was 48.8%, which was higher than the 15.9% for those with metastasis (HR=0.349, 95% CI: 0.209-0.584, P=0.003). Additionally, the 5-year DFS for those without metastasis was 44.3%, significantly higher than the 5.7% for those with metastasis (HR=0.444, 95%CI: 0.276-0.716, P<0.001). For patients without No. 12b or No. 12p lymph node metastasis, the 5-year OS was 47.6%, and the 5-year DFS was 42.3%, both of which were significantly higher than the 16.7% and 8.3% for those with No.12b or No. 12p lymph node metastasis, respectively (HR=0.353, 95%CI: 0.183-0.681, P=0.005; HR=0.457, 95%CI: 0.244-0.855, P=0.006). Multivariate analysis showed that more advanced ypN stage (OR=3.908, 95%CI:1.638-9.323, P=0.002) and tumor location in the lower stomach or whole stomach (OR=3.533, 95%CI: 1.312-9.511, P=0.012) were independent risk factors for No.12 lymph node metastasis and also for No.12b and No.12p lymph node metastasis (OR=2.426, 95%CI: 1.212-4.856, P=0.012 and OR=4.908, 95%CI:1.182-20.373, P=0.028, respectively). Conclusion:Patients with advanced gastric cancer who have more advanced ypN stage and tumor location in the lower stomach or whole stomach have a higher risk of No.12b and No.12p metastasis and thus require further skeletonized lymph node dissection of No.12.
