Yuejuwan is a classic formula widely used by doctors to relieve liver and depression, with precise clinical efficacy in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). The authors used bibliometric methods to collect and collate 495 ancient data related to Yuejuwan, and 105 valid data were screened out, involving 68 ancient Chinese medical books. After systematic verification of the origin of the formula of Yuejuwan, the main treatment symptoms, the principle of the formula, the composition of the drug, the dosage, the preparation method, the decoction method, and other information, the results showed that Yuejuwan originated from the Danxi Xinfa (《丹溪心法》) of the Yuan Dynasty by ZHU Zhenheng, and it is composed of five medicines, namely Atractylodis Rhizoma, Cyperi Rhizom, Chuanxiong Rhizoma, Massa Medicata Fermentata, and Gardeniae Fructus. In terms of drug base, Atractylodis Rhizoma, Cyperi Rhizom, Chuanxiong Rhizoma, and Gardeniae Fructus are in line with the records in the 2020 edition of Chinese Pharmacopoeia, and Massa Medicata Fermentata is used. The preparation method is as follows: Massa Medicata Fermentata and Gardeniae Fructus are fried, and Cyperi Rhizoma is roasted in vinegar. Chuanxiong Rhizoma is used in the raw form, and Atractylodis Rhizoma is prepared with rice swill. The formula can regulate Qi and relieve depression and broaden the middle and remove fullness. It is clinically used for the treatment of six types of depression syndromes, chest and diaphragm plumpness, abdominal distension and leg acid, acid swallowing and vomiting, eating and drinking disharmony, toothache, mouth and tongue sores, and other diseases. The most used dosage of the formula in the ancient records through the ages is converted into the modern dosage, namely 3.05 g Atractylodis Rhizoma, 3.05 g Cyperi Rhizoma, 3.05 g Chuanxiong Rhizoma, 3.05 g Massa Medicata Fermentata, and 3.05 g Gardeniae Fructus, and the daily dosage is 15.25 g. The converted dosage is similar to that recorded in the 2020 edition of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia. The formula is in pill form, and medicine should be taken with lukewarm boiled water after the meal. Through the excavation of the ancient literature related to Yuejuwan, the key information of the formula is identified, with a view to providing a more accurate reference for the clinical application of Yuejuwan and subsequent in-depth investigation.

Kounis syndrome is an acute coronary syndrome triggered by an allergic reaction, which is clinically rare and frequently subject to misdiagnosis or missed diagnosis. This article presents a case report of a 70-year-old male patient who developed a rash, pruritus, and chest pain following colon polyp resection. Coronary angiography revealed occlusion of the left anterior descending artery, and blood flow was restored after stent implantation. However, the patient experienced recurrent symptoms accompanied by loss of consciousness. Drug skin tests confirmed positive reactions to chlorhexidine and fondaparinux sodium, leading to a diagnosis of type Ⅱ Kounis syndrome. By avoiding allergenic drugs and combining antihistamines with symptomatic treatment to correct myocardial ischemia, the patient′s clinical symptoms significantly improved, and he eventually recovered and was discharged from the hospital. This case underscores the importance of maintaining vigilance for this syndrome in patients with allergies accompanied by chest pain and promptly identifying and avoiding allergens.

Modulating Tankyrases (TNKS), interactions with USP25 to promote TNKS degradation, rather than inhibiting their enzymatic activities, is emerging as an alternative/specific approach to inhibit the Wnt/β-catenin pathway. Here, we identified UAT-B, a novel neoantimycin analog isolated from Streptomyces conglobatus, as a small-molecule inhibitor of TNKS-USP25 protein-protein interaction (PPI) to overcome multi-drug resistance in colorectal cancer (CRC). The disruption of TNKS-USP25 complex formation by UAT-B led to a significant decrease in TNKS levels, triggering cell apoptosis through modulation of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway. Importantly, UAT-B successfully inhibited the CRC cells growth that harbored high TNKS levels, as demonstrated in various in vitro and in vivo studies utilizing cell line-based and patient-derived xenografts, as well as APCmin/+ spontaneous CRC models. Collectively, these findings suggest that targeting the TNKS-USP25 PPI using a small-molecule inhibitor represents a compelling therapeutic strategy for CRC treatment, and UAT-B emerges as a promising candidate for further preclinical and clinical investigations.

ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanism of Buzhong Yiqitang in ameliorating ferroptosis in autoimmune thyroiditis (AIT) mice based on the nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2)/peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ)/glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) pathway. Method120 SPF-grade 7-8-week-old NOD.H-2h4 mice were randomly divided into control group, model group, low-, medium-, and high-dose Buzhong Yiqitang groups, and western medicine group, with 20 mice in each group. Except for the control group, all mice were fed with classic high-iodine water (0.05% NaI) to induce AIT models after 8 weeks. The low-, medium-, and high-dose Buzhong Yiqitang groups were administered 4.78, 9.56, 19.12 g·kg-1 of Buzhong Yiqitang, respectively, via gavage. The western medicine group was given 3.033×10-5 g·kg-1 selenium yeast tablet suspension via gavage, while the control and model groups were given an equal volume of distilled water via gavage. After 8 weeks of continuous treatment, samples were collected. The pathological morphology of mouse thyroid tissue was observed through hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining,the content of serumantithyroid peroxidase autoantibody(TPOAb)and anti-thyroglobulin antibodies(TGAb)was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA),the kit was used to detect the levels of superoxide dismutase (SOD), and malondialdehyde (MDA) in mouse serum. Immunofluorescence was used to detect the localized expression of GPX4 in thyroid tissue. Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (Real-time PCR) was used to detect the expression of Nrf2, PPARγ, solute carrier family 7 member 11 (SLC7A11), solute carrier family 3 member 2 (SLC3A2), lysolipid lecithin acyltransferase 3 (LPCAT3), and GPX4 mRNA in thyroid tissue. Western blot was used to detect the expression of Nrf2, PPARγ, SLC7A11, SLC3A2, LPCAT3, and GPX4 proteins in thyroid tissue. ResultCompared with control group, model group under light microscopy showed significant lymphocyte infiltration in the thyroid tissue, significantly increased levels of TGAb and TPOAb in serum (P<0.01), significantly increased MDA levels and decreased SOD levels in serum (P<0.01), significantly decreased expression of Nrf2, PPARγ, SLC7A11, SLC3A2, and GPX4 (P<0.01) in thyroid tissue, while the expression of LPCAT3 was significantly increased (P<0.01). Compared with model group, the Buzhong Yiqitang groups and the western medication group under light microscopy showed lymphocyte infiltration in the thyroid tissue of was decreased, significantly decreased levels of TPOAb and TGAb in serum (P<0.05,P<0.01), decreased MDA levels and increased SOD levels in serum(P<0.05,P<0.01),significantly increased expression of Nrf2, PPARγ, SLC7A11, SLC3A2, and GPX4, while the expression of LPCAT3 was significantly decreased (P<0.05,P<0.01) in the thyroid tissue. Compared with western medication group, Buzhong Yiqitang groups showed significant overall trends in the expression of Nrf2, PPARγ, SLC7A11, SLC3A2, GPX4, and LPCAT3 (P<0.05,P<0.01). ConclusionBuzhong Yiqitang can effectively improve the inflammatory injury of AIT, and its mechanism of action may be related to the regulation of Nrf2/PPARγ/GPX4 to inhibit ferroptosis.

Objective:To investigate the association between congenital hypothyroidism (CH) and the adverse outcomes during hospitalization in very low birth weight infants (VLBWI).Methods:This prospective, multicenter observational cohort study was conducted based on the data from the Sino-northern Neonatal Network (SNN). Data of 5 818 VLBWI with birth weight <1 500 g and gestational age between 24-<37 weeks that were admitted to the 37 neonatal intensive care units from January 1 st, 2019 to December 31 st, 2022 were collected and analyzed. Thyroid function was first screened at 7 to 10 days after birth, followed by weekly tests within the first 4 weeks, and retested at 36 weeks of corrected gestational age or before discharge. The VLBWI were assigned to the CH group or non-CH group. Chi-square test, Fisher exact probability method, Wilcoxon rank sum test, univariate and multivariate Logistic regression were used to analyze the relationship between CH and poor prognosis during hospitalization in VLBWI. Results:A total of 5 818 eligible VLBWI were enrolled, with 2 982 (51.3%) males and the gestational age of 30 (29, 31) weeks. The incidence of CH was 5.5% (319 VLBWI). Among the CH group, only 121 VLBWI (37.9%) were diagnosed at the first screening. Univariate Logistic regression analysis showed that CH was associated with increased incidence of extrauterine growth retardation (EUGR) ( OR=1.31(1.04-1.64), P<0.05) and retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) of stage Ⅲ and above ( OR=1.74(1.11-2.75), P<0.05). However, multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed no significant correlation between CH and EUGR, moderate to severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia, grade Ⅲ to Ⅳ intraventricular hemorrhage, neonatal necrotizing enterocolitis in stage Ⅱ or above, and ROP in stage Ⅲ or above ( OR=1.04 (0.81-1.33), 0.79 (0.54-1.15), 1.15 (0.58-2.26), 1.43 (0.81-2.53), 1.12 (0.70-1.80), all P>0.05). Conclusion:There is no significant correlation between CH and in-hospital adverse outcomes, possibly due to timely diagnosis and active replacement therapy.

Gualou Niubangtang is a classic formula for eliminating swelling and dispersing lumps, commonly used in the clinical treatment of breast diseases in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). This paper employed bibliometric methods to collect and organize 12 pieces of data from ancient texts related to Gualou Niubangtang, ultimately screening 10 valid references from 10 ancient Chinese medical books. Information regarding the prescription origin, main indications, formulation principles, drug composition, dosages, preparation methods, and decoction techniques was systematically verified. The results indicate that Gualou Niubangtang originates from the Orthodox Manual of External Medicine (Wai Ke Zheng Zong) by Chen Shigong in the Ming Dynasty. The formula consists of 12 Chinese medicines, including Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium, Arctii Fructus, Gardeniae Fructus, Lonicerae Japonicae Flos, Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, Trichosanthis Semen, Scutellariae Radix, Trichosanthis Radix, Forsythiae Fructus, Gleditsiae Spina, Bupleuri Radix, and Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium Viridm. In terms of drug origins, the dominant radical for Trichosanthis Semen and Trichosanthis Radix is Trichosanthes kirilowii, and the historical dominant radical for Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma is Glycyrrhiza uralensis. The nine medicines, Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium, Arctii Fructus, Gardeniae Fructus, Lonicerae Japonicae Flos, Scutellariae Radix, Forsythiae Fructus, Gleditsiae Spina, Bupleuri Radix, and Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium Viridm, are consistent with the 2020 edition of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia. The preparation methods involve frying Arctii Fructus, removing the heart from Forsythiae Fructus, while the remaining 10 medicines are used raw. The efficacy includes clearing heat, removing toxins, reducing swelling, and dispersing lumps. Clinically, it is used to treat conditions such as breast carbuncles, breast gangrene, and knot-like swellings and pain. The dosage, converted to modern standards, includes 3.73 g of Trichosanthis Semen, 3.73 g of Trichosanthis Radix, 3.73 g of Arctii Fructus, 3.73 g of Scutellariae Radix, 3.73 g of Gardeniae Fructus, 3.73 g of Forsythiae Fructus, 3.73 g of Gleditsiae Spina, 3.73 g of Lonicerae Japonicae Flos, 3.73 g of Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, 3.73 g of Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium, 1.85 g of Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium Viridm, and 1.85 g of Bupleuri Radix. The preparation is in the form of a decoction, with the 12 medicines added to 400 mL of water and decocted until 160 mL. The liquid is then mixed with 200 mL of yellow wine and taken before meals three times a day. Through the excavation and organization of ancient literature regarding Gualou Niubangtang, key information has been identified to provide a scientific basis for its clinical application and further development.
