With the continuous development of society, a large number of new chemicals are continuously emerging, which presents a challenge to current risk assessment and safety management of chemicals. Traditional toxicology research methods have certain limitations in quickly, efficiently, and accurately assessing the toxicity of many chemicals, and cannot meet the actual needs. In response to this challenge, computational toxicology that use mathematical and computer models to achieve the prediction of chemical toxicity has emerged. In the meantime, as researchers increasingly pay attention to understanding the interaction mechanisms between exogenous chemical substances and the body from the system level, and multiomics technologies develop rapidly such as genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics, huge amounts of data have been generated, providing rich information resources for studying the interactions between chemical substances and biological molecules. System toxicology and network toxicology have also developed accordingly. Of these, network toxicology can integrate these multiomics data to construct biomolecular networks, and then quickly predict the key toxicological targets and pathways of chemicals at the molecular level. This paper outlined the concept and development of network toxicology, summarized the main methods and supporting tools of network toxicology research, expounded the application status of network toxicology in studying potential toxicity of exogenous chemicals such as agricultural chemicals, environmental pollutants, industrial chemicals, and foodborne chemicals, and analyzed the development prospects and limitations of network toxicology research. This paper aimed to provide a reference for the application of network toxicology in other fields.

Congenital lipodystrophy (CL) is a group of genetic disorders characterized by an extreme deficiency of fat tissue in the body. The core defect of this disease is adipose metabolism disorder and is associated with a variety of metabolic problems, such as insulin resistance, diabetes, hypertriglyceridemia, and hepatic pathological changes. Over the past few decades, the rapid development of genomics and molecular biology has significantly advanced the identification and functional study of genes related to CL. This article aims to review the recent progress in the identification and function of CL-related genes, deepen the understanding of its pathological mechanisms, and provide references for future treatment strategies.

Objective To establish an inducible knockout mouse model of trafficking protein particle complex subunit 11 (Trappc11). Methods and results LoxP sites were introduced on both sides of exon 3-5 of Trappc11,and then the CRISPR/Cas9 technique was used to establish F0 C57BL/6J mice. The positive F0 generation mice were identified by polymerase chain reaction amplification and sequencing. After that,F0 positive mice were mated with C57BL/6J wild type mice to obtain F1 Trappc11flox/+mice. And then,Trappc11flox/+mice were mated with UBC-CreERT2 mice,and finally Trappc11 inducible systemic knockout mouse model was obtained after 2 generations. Conclusion The Trappc11 inducible knockout mouse model is established using CRISPR/Cas9 and Cre-loxP,providing an important tool for revealing the pathophysiological role of Trappc11 in multi-organ system diseases.

ObjectiveTo observe the clinical efficacy of Qianghuo Shengshitang combined with ozone injection and radiofrequency thermocoagulation target puncture in the treatment of cervical spondylotic radiculopathy （wind-cold blockage type）. MethodSixty-eight patients with cervical spondylotic radiculopathy who were treated in Henan Province Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from August 2020 to May 2021 were included and grouped into a control group and a research group by random number table， with 34 patients in each group. The control group was administrated with placebo granules of Qianghuo Shengshitang， and treated with ozone injection and radiofrequency thermocoagulation target puncture at the same time. The research group was given modified Qianghuo Shengshitang combined with ozone injection and radiofrequency thermocoagulation target puncture. Before and after treatment， patients in two groups were tested for the levels of tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）， procalcitonin （PCT）， interleukin-2 （IL-2）， interleukin-1β （IL-1β）， 6-ketoprostaglandin E1α （6-keto-PGE1α）， plasma substance P （SP）， β-endorphin （β-EP）， lipid peroxide （LPO）， malondialdehyde （MDA）， and superoxide dismutase （SOD）. The pain visual scale （VAS）， cervical dysfunction index （NDI）， and clinical evaluation scale for cervical spondylosis （CASCS） were given to patients to evaluate the clinical efficacy. ResultCompared with those before treatment， the levels of IL-1β， PCT， and TNF-α in two groups were decreased， and the level of IL-2 was increased （P<0.05）. The improvement of IL-1β， PCT， TNF-α， and IL-2 was more obvious in the research group as compared with the control group （P<0.05）. After treatment， the levels of SOD in two groups were increased， while the levels of LPO and MDA were decreased （P<0.05）. After treatment， the improvement of SOD， LPO， and MDA was more obvious in the research group as compared with the control group （P<0.05）. Compared with those before treatment， the levels of SP and 6-keto-PGE1α in two groups were decreased after treatment， and the level of β-EP was increased （P<0.05）. The improvement of -keto-PGE1α and β-EP was more obvious in the research group as compared with the control group after treatment （P<0.05）. Compared with those before treatment， the VAS and NDI scores of the research group were decreased， and the CASCS scores were increased （P<0.05）. After treatment， the improvement of VAS， NDI， and CASCS of the research group was more obvious as compared with the control group （P<0.05）. After treatment， the total effective rate of patients in the research group was higher than that in the control group （Z=2.018， P<0.05）. ConclusionModified Qianghuo Shengshitang combined with ozone injection and radiofrequency thermocoagulation target puncture in the treatment of patients with cervical spondylotic radiculopathy （wind-cold blockage type） can inhibit inflammation， remove oxygen free radicals， improve the level of pain mediators， relieve pain， and improve cervical spine function and clinical efficacy.
