Objective To monitor the susceptibility of clinical isolates to antimicrobial agents in tertiary hospitals in major regions of China in 2022.Methods Clinical isolates from 58 hospitals in China were tested for antimicrobial susceptibility using a unified protocol based on disc diffusion method or automated testing systems.Results were interpreted using the 2022 Clinical &Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)breakpoints.Results A total of 318 013 clinical isolates were collected from January 1,2022 to December 31,2022,of which 29.5%were gram-positive and 70.5%were gram-negative.The prevalence of methicillin-resistant strains in Staphylococcus aureus,Staphylococcus epidermidis and other coagulase-negative Staphylococcus species(excluding Staphylococcus pseudintermedius and Staphylococcus schleiferi)was 28.3%,76.7%and 77.9%,respectively.Overall,94.0%of MRSA strains were susceptible to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole and 90.8%of MRSE strains were susceptible to rifampicin.No vancomycin-resistant strains were found.Enterococcus faecalis showed significantly lower resistance rates to most antimicrobial agents tested than Enterococcus faecium.A few vancomycin-resistant strains were identified in both E.faecalis and E.faecium.The prevalence of penicillin-susceptible Streptococcus pneumoniae was 94.2%in the isolates from children and 95.7%in the isolates from adults.The resistance rate to carbapenems was lower than 13.1%in most Enterobacterales species except for Klebsiella,21.7%-23.1%of which were resistant to carbapenems.Most Enterobacterales isolates were highly susceptible to tigecycline,colistin and polymyxin B,with resistance rates ranging from 0.1%to 13.3%.The prevalence of meropenem-resistant strains decreased from 23.5%in 2019 to 18.0%in 2022 in Pseudomonas aeruginosa,and decreased from 79.0%in 2019 to 72.5%in 2022 in Acinetobacter baumannii.Conclusions The resistance of clinical isolates to the commonly used antimicrobial agents is still increasing in tertiary hospitals.However,the prevalence of important carbapenem-resistant organisms such as carbapenem-resistant K.pneumoniae,P.aeruginosa,and A.baumannii showed a downward trend in recent years.This finding suggests that the strategy of combining antimicrobial resistance surveillance with multidisciplinary concerted action works well in curbing the spread of resistant bacteria.

The implementation of amplicon sequencing and metagenomic sequencing methods in the whole-genome sequen-cing for MPXV testing was compared,to provide a technical reference for sequencing,tracing,and epidemic prevention and control of MPXV.For amplicon sequencing,targeted amplification of the viral whole genome was performed on MPXV DNA,and was followed by next-generation sequencing of the amplification products.For metagenomic sequencing,next-generation sequencing was performed directly on MPXV DNA.After the sequences were obtained,software such as CLC and IGV were used to analyze the effective data percentage,sequencing depth,and whole-genome sequencing coverage under different sequen-cing depths for both sequencing methods,to evaluate sequencing quality.Nextclade was used to analyze virus typing,muta-tions,and deletions.Subsequently,the similarity and completeness of sequences obtained through both sequencing methods were further compared.On the basis of mapping to the refer-ence sequence of strain MPXV-M5312_HM12_Rivers(Gen-Bank number NC_063383.1),the percentage effective data obtained from amplicon sequencing and metagenomic sequen-cing was 99.72%and 7.54%,respectively,with a sequencing depth range of 0× to 334 839 ×,and 44 × to 1 000 ×.On the basis of a sequencing depth of 10 ×,the site coverage of the above was 90.3%and 100%,respectively.IGV was used to validate the whole-genome coverage under different sequencing depths.The depth coverage of whole-genome sites for metagenomic sequencing was uniform,whereas that of the whole-genome sites for amplicon sequencing was uneven and significantly differed.Virus typing and sequence similarity analysis indicated that the viral sequences obtained with the two sequencing methods all belonged to the Ⅱb B.1 lineage of MPXV.Comparison with the reference sequence indicated that metagenomic sequencing identified 73 nucleotide mutation sites,whereas amplicon sequen-cing identified 68 mutation sites.Further analysis demonstrated that seven common mutation sites of Ⅱb B.1 were not detected in the amplicon sequencing,and two false positive private mutation sites were identified.Amplicon or metagenomic sequencing methods thus can be flexibly used in MPXV virus whole-genome sequencing.Amplicon sequencing yields more effective data,whereas metagenomic sequencing provides better uniformity of coverage and sequence accuracy.This study provides a prelimi-nary understanding of the efficacy of each method and may serve as a technical reference for improving the success rate of whole-genome sequencing of MPXV.

ObjectiveSerum metabolomics of acute lung injury(ALI) in rats was conducted using ultra-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry(UPLC-Q-TOF-MS) to explore the similarities and differences in the mechanism of Qingqiao(harvested when the fruits of Forsythiae Fructus were initially ripe and still green in color) and Laoqiao(harvested when the fruits of Forsythiae Fructus were ripe) in the treatment of ALI. MethodA total of 24 SD male rats were acclimatized and fed for 1 week, 6 of them were randomly selected for the blank group and 18 for the experimental group. The ALI model was induced in the experimental group by tracheal intubation with lipopolysaccharide(LPS). After successfully constructing the ALI model, these rats was randomly divided into model group, Qingqiao group and Laoqiao group, with 6 rats in each group. The Qingqiao and Laoqiao groups were administered orally once a day at a dose of 1.5 g·kg-1, while the blank and model groups received an equivalent volume of saline for 3 consecutive days. The pathological conditions of rat lung tissues were comprehensively assessed by hematoxylin-eosin(HE) staining, wet-to-dry mass ratio(W/D) of lung tissues, and protein concentration in rat bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF). The levels of interleukin(IL)-6, IL-1β and tumor necrosis factor(TNF)-α in BALF were quantified using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA). UPLC-Q-TOF-MS was used to identify and analyze the chemical compositions of Qingqiao and Laoqiao, and serum metabolomics of rats in each group was analyzed, combined with multivariate statistical analysis with variable importance in the projection(VIP) value>1, P<0.05 from t-test, and fold change(FC)≥1.5 or FC≤0.5 to screen the differential metabolites Qingqiao and Laoqiao for the treatment of ALI. The Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG) database was used in combination with MetaboAnalyst for the metabolic pathway analysis of the screened differential metabolites. ResultCompared with the blank group, rats in the model group exhibited enlarged alveolar lumen, ruptured alveoli, interstitial hemorrhage, bronchial exudation of a large number of neutrophils and erythrocytes, and a significant increase in the protein concentration in the BALF and the W/D value of the lung tissues(P<0.01). In contrast, compared with the model group, rats in the Qingqiao group and the Laoqiao group showed reduced bronchial hemorrhage in the lungs, and the protein concentration in the BALF and the W/D value of the lung tissues were significantly decreased(P<0.01), the lung injury was significantly alleviated, but more obvious in the Qingqiao group. Compared with the blank group, the expression levels of IL-6, IL-1β and TNF-α in the BALF of the model group were significantly higher(P<0.01). Additionally, compared with the model group, the expression levels of IL-6, IL-1β and TNF-α in the Qingqiao and Laoqiao groups were significantly lower(P<0.01). The chemical composition analysis of Qingqiao and Laoqiao revealed that 63 components were detected in Qingqiao and 55 components were detected in Laoqiao, with 47 common components, 16 components unique to Qingqiao and 8 components unique to Laoqiao. Characterizing the differences in serum metabolomics in rats, 19 and 12 metabolites were called back by Qingqiao and Laoqiao, respectively. The metabolic pathway enrichment analysis showed that Qingqiao exerted its therapeutic effects by affecting 6 key metabolic pathways, including linoleic acid metabolism, phenylalanine metabolism, phenylalanine, tyrosine and tryptophan biosynthesis, glycerophospholipid metabolism, α-linolenic acid metabolism, and arachidonic acid metabolism, and Laoqiao exerted therapeutic effects by affecting 6 key metabolic pathways, including linoleic acid metabolism, arachidonic acid metabolism, sphingolipid metabolism, phenylalanine metabolism, ascorbate and aldarate metabolism, and glycerophospholipid metabolism. ConclusionQingqiao and Laoqiao have therapeutic effects on ALI, and Qingqiao is more effective. Both of them can play a therapeutic role in ALI by regulating amino acid metabolism and lipid metabolism, but the metabolic pathways affected by them are different.

Lymphatic metastasis is the main metastatic route for colorectal cancer, which increases the risk of cancer recurrence and distant metastasis. The properties of the lymph node metastatic colorectal cancer (LNM-CRC) cells are poorly understood, and effective therapies are still lacking. Here, we found that hypoxia-induced fibroblast activation protein alpha (FAPα) expression in LNM-CRC cells. Gain- or loss-function experiments demonstrated that FAPα enhanced tumor cell migration, invasion, epithelial-mesenchymal transition, stemness, and lymphangiogenesis via activation of the STAT3 pathway. In addition, FAPα in tumor cells induced extracellular matrix remodeling and established an immunosuppressive environment via recruiting regulatory T cells, to promote colorectal cancer lymph node metastasis (CRCLNM). Z-GP-DAVLBH, a FAPα-activated prodrug, inhibited CRCLNM by targeting FAPα-positive LNM-CRC cells. Our study highlights the role of FAPα in tumor cells in CRCLNM and provides a potential therapeutic target and promising strategy for CRCLNM.
