Adenosine triphosphate(ATP),as the core energy metabolism molecule in living systems,has dynamic changes closely related to fundamental physiological processes.To meet the urgent demand for spatiotemporal ATP detection in vivo and in situ,the development of highly sensitive multifunctional synchronous sensing fluorescent probes has become a recent research focus.These dual-function probes achieve fluorescence detection of dual targets by designing recognition sites for ATP alongside biological factors or microenvironment parameters such as reactive oxygen/nitrogen/sulfur species,metal ions,and enzymes,enabling physiological/pathological state correlation analysis through bioimaging.This paper systematically reviews recent advances in fluorescent probes for the collaborative detection of ATP and key biomolecules.It specifically examines probe construction strategies based on specific molecular recognition mechanisms(e.g.,metal coordination competition,electrostatic interactions,and host-guest recognition),multi-modal optical signal transduction mechanisms(ratiometric fluorescence,fluorescence lifetime,and photodynamic therapy),and their applications in pathological models such as oxidative stress monitoring,metal homeostasis imbalance,and enzyme activity co-detection.Finally,from the perspective of molecular probe engineering,current challenges and future research directions are proposed to provide methodological support for precise analysis of ATP-related life process regulation networks.

A method for determination and targeted screening of diflorasone components in health products using ultra performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time of flight mass spectrometry(UPLC-Q-TOF/MS)was established.Four representative diflorasone and esters(diflorasone,diflorasone diacetate,diflorasone-17-propionate,and diflorasone-21-propionate)were selected to optimize the pretreatment conditions,and 10 mL of extraction solvent dosage,15 min of extraction time and 5 g of salting-out agent as the optimal conditions were selected by response surface methodology.The results showed that the four analytes exhibited good linearity within the concentration range of 2.0?100 μg/L with the chromatographic peak area,and the correlation coefficients(R2)were all greater than 0.9990,while the results of recovery and relative standard deviation could satisfy the requirements of determination.The common characteristic ions of diflorasone and esters werem/z121 andm/z335,and their specific structures were obtained by analyzing the cleavage pathway based on the optimized determination conditions.A targeted screening method for other esters of diflorasone based on characteristic ions guidance strategy was established.This method had many advantages such as high efficiency,high sensitivity and good reproducibility,and could be used for targeted screening of diflorasone and esters in health products.The developed characteristic ion guided strategy could be employed to construct mass spectral databases for various glucocorticoids,enabling comprehensive targeted screening across a broad range of compounds.

Objective To propose a lightweight deep learning network-based segmentation method for automatic segmenta-tion of the skeletal muscle at the third cervical spine(C3)level.Methods Firstly,121 patients with head and neck tumors admitted to the Department of Oncology of Zigong First People's Hospital from January 2019 to December 2022 were selected and randomly divided into a training set,a validation set and a test set in the ratio of 7∶1∶2.Secondly,a lightweight Mamba architecture was introduced into the UNet network and an attention gate(AG)mechanism was added to the skip connection path to construct a MB-UNet network model.Finally,the trained network models were evaluated for segmentation performance on the test set,the MB-UNet network model was compared with manual segmentation over the results of determination of skeletal muscle area(SMA),and with classical network models in terms of parameter scale and computation effort including UNet,Deeplab V3+,U2Net,VMUNet and UltraLight-VMUNet models.The time required by the MB-UNet network model for predicting SMA and that by the physician with the assistance of the model was summarized.Results When used for segmenting the skeletal muscle at C3 level the constructued MB-UNet network model gained advantages over the classical models,with a Dice similarity coefficient of 88.23%,an intersection over union(IoU)ratio of 78.94%,a sensitivity of 91.27%and a 95%Hausdorff distance of 7.13 mm;the SMA determined by manual segementation was basically close to that by the MB-UNet network model;the MB-UNet network model behaved generally better than the classical network models,with the computation effort being 1.88 GFLOPS and the parameter scale being 0.77M;it took the MB-UNet network model 1.93 s for the prediction on the test set,and only 2 min for the physician to obtain satisfactory results with the assistance of the MB-UNet network model,which was significantly shorter than that by munual segmentation(20 min).Conclusion The proposed method contributes to segmenting the skeletal muscle at C3 level precisely and rapidly and calculating SMA accurately,which helps clinicians to quickly diagnose sarcopenia in patients with head and neck tumors and improves the diagnostic efficiency.[Chinese Medical Equipment Journal,2025,46(8):11-17]

Numerous studies have shown that depression is main-ly associated with the abnormal expression of connexin 43(Cx43)in astrocytes(Astro)and its mediated dysfunction of gap junction(GJ).However,the molecular mechanism of post-translational modifications targeting Cx43 to regulate neuroin-flammation-associated depression is still unclear.Post-transla-tional modifications of Cx43 mainly include phosphorylation of specific amino acid sites by PKC,PKA,PKG,MAPK and PTK,and protein degradation of Cx43 through the K48/K63 polyubiq-uitylation and deubiquitination pathways,which ultimately lead to protein degradation through K48/K63 polyubiquitination and deubiquitination.These modifications are ultimately involved in the regulation of neuroinflammatory responses through the associ-ation of GJ function.In this paper,we systematically review the role of Cx43 post-translational modifications in neuroinflamma-tion,with the aim of further exploring the potential application of targeting these modifications to modulate the inflammatory re-sponse mechanism in improving depressive symptoms.

Objective:To explore the structural relationship between WMSDs in the upper limbs and various risk factors in the occupational population in China, based on a large sample epidemiological survey and structural equation analysis, and to establish a structural equation model, so as to lay a foundation for the prevention and control of such diseases.Methods:The Chinese version of the Musculoskeletal Disorders Electronic Questionnaire was used to conduct a nationwide survey on the prevalence of WMSDs in the upper extremity. Six factors related to WMSDs in the upper extremity were extracted by the classification standard of adverse ergonomic factors and their source and confirmatory factor analysis, including work organization, work type, upper extremity work posture, individual factors, upper extremity fatigue and upper extremity WMSDs. The structural equation analysis was carried out and the structural equation model was established.Results:The incidence of WMSDs and fatigue in the upper limbs was 24.44% and 43.76%, respectively. The adjusted structural equation model fitting indicators were generally up to the standard (GFI=1.000, AGFI=1.000, RMSEA=0.043, NFI=0.808, TLI=0.784) . The four exogenous latent variables of work organization, work type, upper limb work posture and individual factors were correlated. There was a strong positive correlation between job type and upper limb work posture ( r=0.865) , a moderate positive correlation between work organization and job type and upper limb work posture ( r=0.570, 0.490) , and a weak negative correlation between individual factors and the other three exogenous latent variables. Upper limb work posture and individual factors had direct effects on upper limb WMSDs, and the effect coefficients were 0.10 and 0.06, respectively. Upper limb fatigue played a mediating role between work organization, work type, upper limb work posture and upper limb WMSDs. The effect coefficient was 0.46, and the composition ratios of indirect effects were 100.0%, 100.0%, and 38.3%, respectively. The direct path effect of upper limb work posture, individual factors and upper limb WMSDs was weaker than the mediating path through upper limb fatigue. Conclusion:When carrying out the prevention and control of upper limbWMSDs, it is necessary to comprehensively consider the pathogenesis path of upper limb muscle fatigue and upper limb WMSDs caused by work organization, work type, and upper limb work posture, so as to provide theoretical reference for improving the prevention and control level of such diseases.

Aim To study the effect of emetine on in-sulin secretion through glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor(GLP-1R).Methods Isolating rat islets were used to carry out insulin secretion experiment.Islets were incubated with different concentrations of emetine(2,10,50 μmol·L-1),different concentrations of glu-cose solution(2.8,11.1,16.7 mmol·L-1)or spe-cific GLP-1R antagonist Exendin(9-39).The amount of insulin secretion in the supernatant of each group was determined by an enzyme-linked radioimmunoas-say.Small molecule compounds were docked to GLP-1R(PDB code:5NX2)using SYBYL-X2.0 software.Results Emetine could promote insulin secretion in high glucose(11.1 mmol·L-1)in a dose-dependent manner.In low glucose(2.8 mmol·L-1),insulin secretion did not change after intervention of emetine.But in high glucose(11.1,16.7 mmol·L-1),insu-lin secretion significantly increased under the treatment of emetine in a glucose-dependent manner.The doc-king score of emetine and GLP-1R was Total Score=6.82,C Score=5,indicating that emetine had a good binding affinity with GLP-1R.Using Exendin(9-39)to block GLP-1R,the insulinotropic effect of emetine was reduced.Conclusion Emetine could promote in-sulin secretion,which is related to the activation of GLP-1R.
