Objective: To evaluate the effect of bioactive peptides combined with probiotics on serum uric acid (SUA) in patients with hyperuricemia (HUA), so as to provide the evidence for prevention and treatment of HUA. Methods: The patients with HUA aged 18 to 65 years were selected and randomly divided into an intervention group and a control group. The patients in the intervention group received bioactive peptides combined with probiotics for 28 days at a dose of 3 g/d, while the patients in the control group received an equal dose of placebos. Demographic information, body mass index (BMI), blood pressure and blood lipid were collected through questionnaire surveys, physical examination and laboratory tests. SUA levels were detected before and after 14 days and 28 days of interventions. The differences of SUA levels between the two groups were compared using generalized estimation equation. Results: Totally 108 patients with HUA were recruited, including 54 patients in the intervention group and 53 patients in the control group (1 dropout). Before interventions, there were no statistically significant differences in gender, age, course of HUA, exercise duration, frequency of alcohol consumption, frequency of meat broth consumption, BMI, prevalence of hypertension and prevalence of dyslipidemia between the two groups (all P>0.05). After 14 days of interventions, the SUA levels of the patients in the intervention group decreased by 3.00 μmol/L, while those in the control group increased by 7.00 μmol/L. After 28 days of interventions, the SUA levels of the patients in the intervention group and the control group decreased by 26.00 μmol/L and 16.00 μmol/L, respectively. However, there was no statistically significant interaction between the intervention time and group (both P>0.05). Subgroup analysis showed that after 28 days of interventions, the decrease in SUA levels in the patients aged 55 years and older and without hypertension in the intervention group was greater than those in the control group (both P<0.05). Conclusions Bioactive peptides combined with probiotics showed no significant difference in reducing SUA levels in patients with HUA compared to the control group. The effect was more significant for patients aged 55 years and older and without hypertension.

Traditional Chinese Medicine has a long history and plays a decisive role in the fields of modern medicine and pharmacy.It is an important part of our country's traditional medicine.With the progress of the times,people are paying more and more attention to the innovation and development of traditional Chinese medicine.However,the current traditional Chinese medicine talents trained by major universities cannot meet the needs and requirements of society.This is closely related to the current talent training model of universities.Local high-level universities have unique advantages and potential in cultivating inno-vative talents in traditional Chinese medicine.They can incorporate traditional Chinese medicine culture with local characteristics into the teaching content and practical links of training traditional Chinese medicine talents,and build innovative traditional Chi-nese medicine talents integrating science and education.The training model is more conducive to cultivating top innovative talents that meet the needs of society and and the development of traditional Chinese medicine.This article analyzes and discusses how local high-level universities can develop innovative talent training models that suit the needs of traditional Chinese medicine by combining local characteristics and disciplinary advantages,so as to provide useful reference and inspiration for local high-level u-niversities in cultivating talents in traditional Chinese medicine.

AIM:To investigate the effect of protopanaxatriol(PPT)on the drug resistance of paclitaxel(PTX)-resistant human breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells(MB231-PR cells).METHODS:The MB231-PR cells were constructed as cell models.They were treated with PPT,and incubated for a certain period of time according to the experi-mental settings.CellTiter-Glo was used to determine the viability of MB231-PR cells and MDA-MB-231 parental cells(MB231-PT cells).The change of sub-G1 phase was detected by flow cytometry.Western blot was used to evaluate the apoptosis-related proteins,such as cleaved caspase-3,cleaved poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase(PARP),B-cell lymphoma-2(Bcl-2),Bcl-2-associated X protein(Bax)and survivin.The activity of nuclear factor-κB(NF-κB)was detected by lu-ciferase reporter assay and immunofluorescence assay.The mRNA expression levels of interleukin-6(IL-6),IL-8,chemo-kine CXC motif ligand 1(CXCL1),chemokine CC motif ligand 2(CCL2),CD44,NANOG,octamer-binding transcrip-tion factor 4(OCT4),sex-determining region Y-box 2(SOX2)and aldehyde dehydrogenase 1(ALDH1)were detected by qPCR.The protein levels of IL-6 and IL-8 were measured by ELISA.Tumor sphere formation assay was used to evaluate the characteristics of stem cells.RESULTS:(1)The viability of MB231-PR cells was suppressed by PPT treatment in a dose-dependent manner compared with MB231-PT cells(P<0.01).Besides,the viability of MB231-PR cells was de-creased after combined treatment with PPT and PTX(P<0.01),the accumulation of sub-G1 phase was induced(P<0.01),the ratio of Bax/Bcl-2 was elevated(P<0.01),and the protein levels of survivin,cleaved PARP and cleaved cas-pase-3 were increased(P<0.05).(2)After PPT treatment combined with PTX,the mRNA expression of inflammatory cy-tokines(IL-6,IL-8,CXCL1 and CCL2)and cancer stem cell-related markers(OCT4,SOX2,NANOG,ALDH1 and CD44)was reduced(P<0.05),and the protein levels of IL-6 and IL-8 were decreased(P<0.01).The activity of NF-κB in MB231-PR cells was suppressed(P<0.05),and the growth of tumor spheres from MB231-PR cells was damaged(P<0.05).(3)Immunofluorescence assay showed that PTX induced nuclear p-p65 expression,but this effect was attenuated by PPT.CONCLUSION:Combined treatment with PPT and PTX could attenuate PTX resistance of MB231-PR cells by inhibiting inflammatory cytokines and cancer stem cells.

COVID-19 is caused by a novel coronavirus-severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus type 2 (SARS-CoV-2), which has being spreading around the world, posing a serious threat to human health and lives. Neutralizing antibodies and small molecule inhibitors for virus replication cycle are the main antiviral treatment for novel coronavirus recommended in China. To further promote the rational use of antiviral therapy in clinical practice, the National Center for Infectious Diseases (Beijing Ditan Hospital Capital Medical University and the First Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine) invited experts in fields of infectious diseases, respiratory and intensive care to develop an Expert Consensus on Antiviral Therapy of COVID-19 based on the Diagnosis and Treatment Guideline for COVID-19 ( trial version 10) and experiences in the diagnosis and treatment of COVID-19 in China. The consensus is concise, practical and highly operable, hopefully it would improve the understanding of antiviral therapy for clinicians and provide suggestions for standardized medication in treatment of COVID-19.
