ObjectiveThis study aims to reveal the mechanism of liver and kidney injuries caused by Dictamni Cortex and its interrelationship by metabonomics analysis of liver and kidney via ultra-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry （UPLC-Q-TOF-MS）. MethodsThe content of the marker compounds of Dictamni Cortex was measured by high-performance liquid chromatography （HPLC） to carry out quality control. Sprague Dawley （SD） rats were randomly divided into a blank group （normal saline）， an administration group （0.9， 2.7， 8.1 g·kg^-1）， and a high-dose withdrawal control group， with eight rats in each group. Continuous administration was performed once daily for 28 days. The liver and kidney injuries caused by each administration group were assessed by organ indices， pathological observations， and serum and plasma biochemical indices measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. The potential biomarkers of liver and kidney injuries caused by Dictamni Cortex were screened， and pathway enrichment analysis and correlation analysis were performed based on UPLC-Q-TOF-MS. ResultsCompared with the blank group， both the medium- and low-dose groups showed insignificant damage to the liver and kidney of rats. The high-dose group exhibited the most serious damage， and the level of liver and kidney function indices ［alanine aminotransferase （ALT）， aspartate aminotransferase （AST）， creatinine （Cr）， and blood urea nitrogen （BUN）］ and serum inflammatory indices （［interleukin 1β （IL-1β）， IL-6， and tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）］ in the serum were significantly changed （P<0.01）. The liver and kidney metabolism pathways and differential metabolites were quite different. Among them， phenylalanine metabolism， niacin and nicotinamide metabolism， and glycerophospholipid metabolism were common pathways. Correlation analysis of differential metabolites showed that there were significant correlations among disorders of 4′-Phosphopantothenoylcysteine， PC （16∶0/15∶0）， phenylethylamine， arachidonic acid， and linoleic acid in liver and kidney tissue. ConclusionThe decoction of Dictamni Cortex can cause liver and kidney injuries， and its mechanism may be related to oxidative stress and lipid metabolism disorders. The correlation of differential metabolites indicates the interaction between liver and kidney injuries.

ObjectiveTo explore the mechanism of the immunotoxicity induced by dictamnine （DIC） in rats and the recovery effect after drug withdrawal by ultra-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry， thereby providing a theoretical basis for elucidating the toxic mechanism of DIC. MethodsSD rats were randomized into blank （normal saline）， DIC （10 mg·kg^-1）， and DIC withdrawal （recovery period） groups （n=8）. The rats were continuously treated for 7 days， once a day， and the body weight and organ weight were recorded. The levels of interleukin-1 （IL-1）， IL-6， and tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α） in the serum and immunoglobulin A （IgA）， immunoglobulin G （IgG）， and immunoglobulin M （IgM） in the spleen were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Hematoxylin-eosin staining was used to observe the pathological changes in the spleen. ultra performance liquid chromatography quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry （UPLC-Q-TOF-MS） was employed to screen the potential biomarkers of immune inflammation caused by DIC， and pathway enrichment analysis and correlation analysis were performed. The mRNA levels of IL-1β， TNF-α， lysophosphatidylcholine acyltransferase 2 （LPCAT2）， and farnesoid X receptor （FXR） in the serum were determined by Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR）. ResultsCompared with the blank group， the DIC group showed elevated levels of IL-1β， IL-6， and TNF-α in the serum （P<0.01）， and the DIC withdrawal group showcased lowered levels of IL-1β， IL-6， and TNF-α in the serum （P<0.01）. The levels of IgA， IgG， and IgM in the spleen of rats in the DIC group were decreased （P<0.01）， while those in the DIC withdrawal group were recovered （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Untargeted metabolomics of the serum and spleen screened out 14 common differential metabolites and 14 common metabolic pathways. The Spearman correlation analysis between differential metabolites and inflammatory factors identified PC （32∶0）， LysoPC （20∶4/0∶0）， LysoPC （P-18∶0/0∶0）， taurochenodeoxycholic acid， taurocholic acid， LysoPC ［20∶5（5Z，8Z，11Z，14Z，17Z）/0∶0］， chenodeoxycholic acid， arachidonic acid， LysoPC （18∶0/0∶0）， LysoPC （15∶0/0∶0）， LysoPC （16∶0/0∶0）， and LysoPC （17∶0/0∶0） as the biomarkers of immunotoxicity induced by DIC in SD rats. In the process of immunotoxicity caused by DIC， lipid metabolism disorders such as glycerophospholipid metabolism， primary bile acid metabolism， and arachidonic acid metabolism were enriched， which was consistent with the DIC-induced inflammatory factors and pathological characteristics of the spleen. Compared with the blank group， the DIC group exhibited up-regulated mRNA levels of IL-1β， TNF-α， LPCAT2， and FXR （P<0.01）， and the up-regulation was decreased in the withdrawal group （P<0.01）. ConclusionDIC can lead to immune and inflammatory disorders. DIC withdrawal can regulate the expression of biomarkers related to serum and spleen metabolites， regulate the inflammatory metabolic pathway， reduce the inflammation level， and alleviate the metabolic disorders， thus attenuating the potential toxicity induced by DIC.

Objective To investigate the effects of prolonged low-dose neutron-γ radiation on peripheral blood lymphocytes of logging workers. Methods The health information of workers in a logging company was collected by on-site blood sample collection and questionnaire survey. Individual doses of γ and neutron radiation were recorded using LiF elements and CR-39, respectively. Lymphocyte count in peripheral blood was measured by blood cytometer. Cell cycle and cyclins were detected by flow cytometry. Results The annual dose of some logging workers exceeded 5 mSv. Lymphocyte counts showed a difference of 15% between the group exposed to the lowest annual dose of 0–1 mSv (mean: 2.45 × 10⁹/L) and the group exposed to the highest annual dose of 5–25 mSv (mean: 2.08 × 10⁹/L). In comparison to pre-shift workers, logging workers exhibited a G1-phase arrest in the lymphocyte cycle, along with increased expression of cyclins p21 and CDK2. Conclusion Prolonged exposure to low-dose neutron-γ radiation leads to reduced lymphocyte counts as well as changes in lymphocyte cycle and cyclin expression.

OBJECTIVE To study the preparation technology based on quality by design (QbD) concept of Erdong decoction particles, and to control its quality. METHODS Design L9(34) orthogonal test method, and the extraction process of Erdong decoction was optimized by AHP-CRITIC mixed weighted method with the extract rate, index component transfer rate and total polysaccharide as evaluation indexes. Taking ratio of briquetting, dissolution rate, angle of repose and moisture absorption rate as indexes, the central composite design-response surface methodology method combined with entropy weight method was used to optimize the forming process of Erdong decoction granules. The relative homogeneity index, bulk density, vibration density, moisture, hygroscopicity, angle of reposition and Hausner ratio were used as indicators to establish a physical fingerprint to evaluate particle quality consistency. RESULTS The optimal extraction process of Erdong decoction was to add 12 times of water without soaking and extract it 3 times for 30 min each time. The mean comprehensive score of the three batches of repeated validation tests was 54.24, and the RSD was 1.09%. The optimum molding process of Erdong decoction granules was as follows: the ratio of dry paste powder to auxiliary material was 1∶0.6, the volume fraction of wetting agent was 87%, the amount of wetting agent was 16%, and it was dried at 80 ℃ for 30 min. The similarity of physical fingerprints of 5 batches of particles was>0.99. CONCLUSION The method is stable and feasible, which can provide direction for the industrial production of Erdong decoction granules and the further research of this preparation.

Objective:To evaluate the effects of antibiotics alone and combined with Longqing tablets and antibiotics on stent-related symptoms (SRS), urinary tract infection (UTI), and quality of life in patients who underwent ureteroscopic lithotripsy (URL) with indwelling ureteral stents.Methods:The clinical data of 160 patients who underwent URL with indwelling ureteral stents in the Department of Urology, Xuanwu Hospital, Capital Medical University from January 2022 to December 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the postoperative application of antibiotics and Longqing tablets, they were divided into two groups: control group and observation group, with 80 cases in each group. The control group took Levofloxacin tablets orally, and the observation group took Longqing tablets combined with Levofloxacin tablets orally. The SRS of the two groups was compared according to the degree of urinary tract irritation symptoms, low back pain, and dysuria. UTI was evaluated by the incidence of fever, hematuria, pyuria, positive rate of urine culture, and specific bacterial classes. The Chinese version of the ureteral stent symptom questionnaire (USSQ) and the quality of life score were evaluated in the two groups. Normally distributed quantitative data were expressed as mean ± standard deviation ( ± s), and the t-test was used for comparison between groups; non-normally distributed quantitative data were expressed as median (interquartile range) [ M( Q1, Q3)], and the non-parametric test was used for comparison between groups. Count data were expressed as the number of cases and percentage, and the Chi-square test was used for comparison between groups. Results:Among the 160 patients, 141 (88.13%) developed SRS, including 71 cases (88.75%) in the control group, and 70 cases (87.50%) in the observation group, there was no significant difference between the two groups ( P=0.724). In terms of SRS, the urinary tract irritation symptom scores [3.0 (1.0, 5.0) points vs 5.0 (3.0, 7.0) points], low back pain scores [1.5 (1.0, 2.0) points vs 2.5 (2.0, 3.0) points] and dysuria scores [1.5 (1.0, 2.0) points vs 3.5 (2.5, 4.0) points] of the observation group were significantly lower than those of the control group, the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). The Chinese version of USSQ showed that the urinary tract symptoms of the observation group were significantly relieved compared with the control group [15(12, 19) points vs 22 (15, 28) points], and the difference was statistically significant ( P=0.037). In terms of UTI, the incidence of fever (6.25% vs 7.50%), the incidence of hematuria (20.00% vs 22.50%), the incidence of pyuria (30.00% vs 33.75%), and positive rate of urine culture (11.25% vs 15.00%) between the two groups were not statistically significant ( P> 0.05), but the number was reduced to a certain extent. There was no statistically significant difference in the scores of physiological function, emotional function and social function between the two groups before surgery ( P> 0.05); however, the scores of the above three items in both groups were improved 2 weeks after surgery, and the improvement of the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group, with statistical significance ( P<0.01). Conclusion:Longqing tablets combined with antibiotics are more effective in improving SRS in patients who receive URL and have indwelling ureteral stents than antibiotics alone, and can prevent UTI and improve the quality of life to a certain extent.

Gynecological diseases are one of the important factors that threaten women's reproductive health.Endoplasmic reticulum(ER)stress is a stress response induced by the accumulation of unfolded or misfolded proteins in ER cavity when the female body is in a disease state,and the effects of different stress levels on the female reproductive system and the increase in the risk of female disease will vary greatly.Studies have shown that ER stress is closely related to the occurrence and development of gynecological diseases.Based on the relevant research reports at home and abroad in recent years,this paper summarizes the role of ER stress in several common gynecological diseases to provide new research ideas for preventing,diagnosing,and treating gynecological diseases.
