Breast cancer is one of the most common tumors worldwide.Despite significant pro-gress in diagnosis and treatment,the incidence and mortality rates remain high due to its highly inva-sive and metastatic characteristics.Trichorhinophalangeal syndrome type 1(TRPS1)is an atypical globin transcription factor-1(GATA).It plays an important role in regulating cell proliferation and differentiation and tissue growth.Studies have found that TRPS1 is significantly overexpressed in breast cancer and closely related to tumor invasion and metastasis.TRPS1 is specifically expressed in the ductal epithelial cells of breast tissue and closely associated with the differentiation of breast ducts.In recent years,scholars have mainly focused on the role and mechanisms of TRPS1 in the di-agnosis and treatment of breast cancer.This review summarized the research progress of TRPS1 in breast cancer,aiming to further analyze its clinical application value in the occurrence,development,diagnosis,and treatment of breast cancer.

Objective:To clarify the effect of methotrexate on blood uric acid levels and the incidence of hyperuricemia in patients with rheumatic and musculoskeletal diseases (RMDs).Methods:The clinical data were collected from 349 patients with RMDs who took methotrexate for more than 52 weeks and 429 patients with RMDs who did not take methotrexate, who were treated at Anqing Medical Center of Auhui Medical University from June 1, 2022 to June 30, 2024, to compare the differences in serum uric acid concentration and the incidence of hyperuricemia before and after 24 weeks of methotrexate administration in the two groups of patients with RMDs.

BACKGROUND:Ginseng extracts have been found to significantly improve osteoarthritis,but the therapeutic effects of ginseng polysaccharide extracts on osteoarthritis have not been reported. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of ginseng polysaccharide on the expression of prostaglandin E2/6-keto-prostaglandin F1α in traumatic osteoarthritis model rats. METHODS:Sixty male Sprague-Dawley rats were selected and randomly divided into healthy group,model group,ginseng polysaccharide low-dose group,ginseng polysaccharide medium-dose group,ginseng polysaccharide high-dose group and dexamethasone group.Except for 10 rats in the healthy group,the other rats were taken to establish traumatic osteoarthritis models.The healthy group and model group were given 0.2 mL of normal saline intraperitoneally.The low-,medium-,and high-dose groups were intraperitoneally injected with 0.1,0.25,0.5 μg/mL ginseng polysaccharide,respectively.In the dexamethasone group,0.2mg/kg dexamethasone(0.2 mL)was injected intraperitoneally.Injections were given once every 3 days,for 4 consecutive weeks.Serum prostaglandin E2 and 6-keto-prostaglandin F1α levels were detected by ELISA.The bone and joint function of rats were assessed by the Mankin's score.Hematoxylin-eosin staining was used to observe the pathologic morphology of the knee joints of rats.Western blot and PCR were used to detect the protein and mRNA expression of tumor necrosis factor α and interleukin-1β,interleukin-10 in articular cartilage tissue,respectively. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the model group,serum prostaglandin E2 levels were decreased in the medium-dose group and dexamethasone group,while serum 6-keto-prostaglandin F1α levels were increased(P<0.05).Compared with the medium-dose group and dexamethasone group,the above-mentioned indicators were significantly improved in the high-dose group,and there was no significant difference between the medium-dose group and dexamethasone group(P>0.05).Compared with the model group,the Mankin's score was reduced in the medium-dose group and dexamethasone group(P<0.05),but there was no significant difference between the medium-dose group and dexamethasone group(P>0.05).Compared with the medium-dose group and dexamethasone group,the Mankin's score was significantly reduced in the high-dose group(P<0.05).The cartilage tissue layer of rats in the model and low-dose groups was significantly thinned,the cracks and chondrocytes deep into the bone layer were largely lost,the tide line was seriously broken and blurred,the collagen fibers in the synovial layer were increased and thickened,and a large number of chondrocytes were destroyed and arranged irregularly.These pathological changes were improved in the medium-dose group and dexamethasone group compared with the model group as well as improved in the high-dose group compared with the medium-dose group.Compared with the model group,the expression of tumor necrosis factor-α and interleukin-1β was reduced,while the expression of interleukin-10 was increased in the medium-dose group and dexamethasone group(P<0.05).These indicators in the joint were significantly improved in the high-dose group compared with the medium-dose group and dexamethasone group(P<0.05),but there was no significant difference between the medium-dose group and dexamethasone group(P>0.05).To conclude,ginseng polysaccharide can improve the inflammatory level and pathological morphology of traumatic osteoarthritis rats and reduce the Mankin's score.Its mechanism may be related to the regulation of prostaglandin E2/6-keto-prostaglandin F1α levels.

Objective:To analyse the clinical significance of selective single embryo transfer by time-lapse mo-nitoring(TLM)or conventional morphology assessment(CMA)in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm in-jection and embryo transfer(IVF/ICSI-ET),and to initially explore the predictive value of Raman spectral analy-sis of embryo culture medium for clinical pregnancy rate.Methods:The study is a prospective randomized con-trolled clinical trial.We assigned 139 patients treated with IVF/ICSI-ET in Reproductive and Genetics Center of Suzhou Municipal Hospital from April 2019 to July 2020,which were randomly assigned to either the CMA or the TLM group.We performed selective single-embryo transfer(fresh cycle and FET)after selecting the optimal em-bryos with TLM or CMA respectively.If the patient's first embryo transfer was unsuccessful,a second one would be performed to compare the differences in the cumulative live birth rate of embryo transfer and other pregnancy outcomes between the two groups.Meanwhile,we collected 15 μl of embryo culture medium at day 3 after IVF/ISCI fertilization for Raman spectroscopy analysis.Results:There were no differences in cumulative live birth,cu-mulative clinical pregnancy,cumulative premature birth,cumulative early spontaneous abortion,cumulative ectopic pregnancy and LGA or SGA between TLM and CMA groups(P＞0.05).The Neonatal sex ratio in the TLM group was lower than that in the CMA group,but the difference was not significant(P＞0.05).Raman spectros-copy analysis of embryo culture medium predicted the clinical pregnancy rate with 67.21％accuracy.Conclu-sions:In young women with a good ovarian reserve,the advantage of using TLM to evaluate embryos is not obvi-ous,so we should remain vigilant that embryo selection based on morphokinetic parameters may affect the sex ratio.Raman spectroscopic analysis of embryo culture medium is not yet able to effectively predict the planting ability of embryos.
