BACKGROUND:Promoting skin wound healing is a huge challenge facing global public health.To promote faster and higher-quality wound healing,it is necessary to explore more advantageous dressings to address this problem.OBJECTIVE:To investigate the hemostatic properties of acellular dermal matrix hydrogel and its effect on skin wound healing.METHODS:(1)Acellular dermal matrix hydrogel was prepared,and the differences in microscopic morphology and main components between it and acellular dermal matrix were analyzed.(2)Acellular dermal matrix hydrogel and chitosan hydrogel were used to cover the femoral artery puncture site of rats,and the bleeding quality and coagulation time were recorded.Acellular dermal matrix hydrogel and chitosan hydrogel were mixed with rat anticoagulated blood,and the coagulation index within 30 minutes was detected.(3)A full-thickness skin defect model with a diameter of 12 mm was made on the back of 18 SD rats,and they were randomly divided into 3 groups,with 6 rats in each group:the model group used PBS to clean the wound,and the control group and the experimental group used chitosan hydrogel and acellular dermal matrix hydrogel to cover the wound,respectively.The hydrogel dressing was changed every day,and the treatment was continued for 14 days,and the wound healing was observed.On day 3 after modeling,immunofluorescence staining of inducible nitric oxide synthase(M1 macrophages)and CD206(M2 macrophages)was performed on the wound surface.On day 14 after modeling,hematoxylin-eosin staining,Masson staining,and CD31 immunohistochemical staining were performed on the wound surface.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Scanning electron microscopy revealed that the acellular dermal matrix hydrogel had a porous structure,and the Fourier transform infrared spectrum showed that it had the same main components as the acellular dermal matrix.(2)Both acellular dermal matrix hydrogel and chitosan hydrogel had obvious hemostatic ability in vivo.In the in vitro coagulation experiments,the coagulation index of acellular dermal matrix hydrogel was significantly higher than that of chitosan hydrogel.(3)In the rat skin full-thickness defect model,both acellular dermal matrix hydrogel and chitosan hydrogel could improve the wound healing rate.Hematoxylin-eosin and Masson staining results showed that acellular dermal matrix hydrogel could reduce the infiltration of inflammatory cells in the center of the wound.Both acellular dermal matrix hydrogel and chitosan hydrogel could decrease scar width and increase collagen deposition rate.CD31 immunohistochemical staining results showed that both hydrogels could promote angiogenesis in the wound site.Immunofluorescence staining results showed that both hydrogels could reduce the proportion of M1 macrophages and increase the proportion of M2 macrophages,and the effect of acellular dermal matrix hydrogel was stronger than that of chitosan hydrogel.(4)The results show that the acellular dermal matrix hydrogel has good hemostatic properties and the ability to promote wound healing.

[摘 要] 目的：探讨甲硫氨酸限制对肺腺癌（LUAD）细胞增殖、凋亡及磷酸戊糖途径的影响。方法：将H1299、A549细胞分为Met+组和Met−组，分别用含100 μmol/L或不含甲硫氨酸的培养基连续培养4 d，采用细胞计数法评估甲硫氨酸处理对H1299和A549细胞增殖的影响，PI染色法检测细胞周期分布，Annexin Ⅴ-PE/7AAD标记细胞凋亡，利用DCFH-DA探针检测细胞内ROS水平，WST-8法和DTNB法分别测定细胞内NADPH与GSH含量；通过癌症基因组图谱（TCGA）数据库分析葡萄糖-6-磷酸脱氢酶（G6PD）和6-磷酸葡萄糖酸脱氢酶（6PGD）表达与甲硫氨酸代谢通路的关系；采用WB法检测甲硫氨酸处理及回补甲硫氨酸下游代谢产物S-腺苷甲硫氨酸（SAM）对LUAD细胞中磷酸戊糖途径关键酶G6PD和6PGD表达的影响。结果：甲硫氨酸限制显著抑制H1299和A549细胞增殖（均P < 0.01），将细胞周期阻滞于G2/M期（均P < 0.05），显著升高细胞内总ROS水平（均P < 0.001）并促进细胞凋亡（均P < 0.001）；同时，甲硫氨酸限制显著降低了细胞内NADPH和GSH水平（均P < 0.01），抑制DNA合成（均P < 0.01）。分析TCAG数据发现，G6PD和6PGD表达水平与甲硫氨酸代谢通路呈正相关（均P < 0.001），甲硫氨酸限制下调G6PD和6PGD蛋白表达（均P < 0.01），而回补SAM可部分逆转甲硫氨酸限制对G6PD和6PGD的表达的抑制（均P < 0.01），提示甲硫氨酸通过SAM合成调控磷酸戊糖途径。结论：甲硫氨酸限制通过抑制磷酸戊糖途径抑制LUAD细胞增殖，为甲硫氨酸限制疗法治疗LUAD提供实验依据。

Background: The transvenous approach to the treatment of cerebral arteriovenous malformation (AVM) is difficult and requires strict blood pressure and blood flow control; however, the cure rate is very high. Appropriate blood pressure control techniques can greatly benefit these patients.Case: A 55-year-old male patient was found to have an aneurysm complicated with a cerebral AVM (length: 2.0 cm, width: 1.6 cm, height: 1.2 cm). Aneurysm embolization was considered for the first-stage surgery and transvenous AVM embolization for the second-stage surgery. Rapid ventricular pacing (RVP) provided a stable blood flow environment for the surgery, which was completed successfully. Conclusion RVP can thus provide an ideal condition for the embolization of cerebral AVM through the transvenous approach and can be a viable surgical option.

Chemotherapeutic drugs, such as cisplatin and phenanthriplatin (PhenPt), as STING agonists to induce DNA damage and activate the cyclic GMP-AMP synthase-stimulator of interferon genes (cGAS-STING) signaling pathway provides a potential strategy for clinical chemo-immunotherapy. However, treatment with Pt-based drugs leads to irreversible ectopia of phosphatidylserine (PS), a major component of the intracellular membrane, to the surface of the cancer cells by enzymes (Xkr8). Exposed PS can bind to immune cell receptors and inhibit the presentation of tumor antigens, leading to immunosuppression and attenuation of chemotherapy. Herein, we report a novel approach to enhance chemo-immunotherapy by constructing siRNA targeted Xkr8 (siXkr8)-mediated tetrahedral framework nucleic acid nanogel structure concurrently loaded with PhenPt (siXkr8-FNG/PhenPt) for co-delivery of siRNA and Pt-based drugs. The results showed that siXkr8-FNG/PhenPt can not only be used as an efficient delivery carrier to deliver siXkr8, block the expression of Xkr8, reduce the exposure of PS on the cancer cells surface, but also act as an immune stimulant to activate cGAS-STING pathway, effectively improve the immunosuppressive microenvironment, produce antitumor immune response, and inhibit tumor growth and metastasis. Overall, this new delivery system is important for improving the effect of Pt-based drug chemotherapy, inducing immune enhancement and nucleic acid drug delivery.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of ultrasound-guided subcostal quadratus lumborum block combined with general anesthesia in laparoscopic bariatric surgery.Methods:In this prospective randomized controlled study, 80 American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification Ⅰ or Ⅱpatients, aged 18-40 yr, with a body mass index of 30-45 kg/m 2, of cardiac function classification Ⅰ or Ⅱ, who underwent laparoscopic bariatric surgery at the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from February 2023 to May 2023, were selected and divided into 2 groups ( n=40 each) using a table of random numbers: general anesthesia group (GA group) and subcostal quadratus lumborum block combined with general anesthesia group (SQB+ GA group). Both groups received combined intravenous-inhalational anesthesia. Patients in SQB+ GA group underwent bilateral ultrasound-guided subcostal quadratus lumborum block with 20 ml of 0.375% ropivacaine before anesthesia induction. Oxycodone was administered for analgesia during the post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) stay. Patient-controlled intravenous analgesia with sufentanil and granisetron was used after returning to the ward. When the visual analog scale score >4 within 24 h after surgery, flurbiprofen axetil 50 mg was intravenously given as rescue analgesic. The intraoperative consumption of remifentanil and use of vasoactive drugs were recorded. The effective pressing times of patient-controlled analgesia and requirement for rescue analgesia were recorded. The tracheal extubation time, PACU stay time, use of oxycodone during PACU stay, and occurrence of hypoxemia after tracheal extubation and occurrence of adverse reactions within 24 h after surgery was also recorded. Arterial blood gas analysis was performed at discharge from PACU. Results:Compared with GA group, the intraoperative consumption of remifentanil was significantly reduced, the usage rate of oxycodone, effective pressing times of patient-controlled analgesia and rate of rescue analgesia were significantly decreased, the PaO 2 and PaCO 2 at discharge from PACU were decreased, the tracheal extubation time and PACU stay time were shortened, and the incidence of hypoxemia after tracheal extubation and postoperative nausea and vomiting was decreased in SQB+ GA group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Compared with general anesthesia alone, ultrasound-guided subcostal quadratus lumborum block combined with general anesthesia can reduce the intraoperative consumption of opioids, alleviate postoperative pain, and decrease the occurrence of postoperative adverse reactions when used in laparoscopic bariatric surgery.

Breast cancer remains a substantial threat to women's health and is one of the most prevalent malignant tumors in women.Because breast cancer onset is closely associated with female physiological characteristics,this article proposes that breast cancer be classified as a"women's miscellaneous diseases"and that its treatment be explored from this perspective.Drawing from Chapter 8 on Golden Chamber of Prescriptions for Miscellaneous Diseases in Women of Synopsis of Golden Chamber,the initial pathogenesis of breast cancer is associated with"emotional stress,improper lifestyle,deficiency,cold,and stagnation."The fundamental mechanism behind its formation is"blood cold accumulation and hardened masses."Specifically,emotional imbalance and improper lifestyle habits contribute to the combined invasion of the uterus by"deficiency,""accumulated cold,"and"stagnant qi."Over time,"cold-blood stasis accumulates at the uterine ostium,"and the cold and the stasis ascends from the uterus along the thoroughfare and conception vessels,obstructing the breast collaterals.This combination of yang qi stagnation and yin cold congealment,ultimately leads to the development of breast cancer.The treatment principle should focus on"activating yang and dispersing cold."A therapeutic approach centered on Wenjing Decoction combined with Xiaoyao Powder can be adapted based on the stage and type of breast cancer while also considering the dynamic interplay between pathogenic factors and healthy qi,along with shifts in deficiency and excess patterns of disease.By adhering to the principles of consistency and flexibility and integrating disease and syndrome differentiation,the goal is to develop precise and personalized treatment strategies to improve clinical outcomes.
