ObjectiveTo explore the quantity-quality transfer process of medicinal materials， decoction pieces and standard decoction of Haliotidis Concha（Haliotis discus hannai） by analyzing the physical phase and compositional changes， so as to provide references for the effective control of its quality. MethodsA total of 20 batches of Haliotidis Concha（H. discus hannai） from different habitats were collected and prepared into corresponding calcined products and standard decoction， and the content of CaCO₃ of the three samples were determined and the extract yield and transfer rate of CaCO₃ were calculated. The changes in elemental composition and their relative contents were investigated by X-ray fluorescence spectrometry（XRF）， X-ray diffraction（XRD） was used to study the changes in the phase compositions of the three samples and to establish their respective XRD specific chromatogram. Fourier transform infrared spectrometry（FTIR） was used to study the changes in the chemical composition and content changes of the three samples and to establish their respective FTIR specific chromatogram， while combining hierarchical cluster analysis（HCA）， principal component analysis（PCA） and orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis（OPLS-DA） to find the common and differential characteristics， in order to explore the quantity-quality transfer relationship in the preparation process of standard decoction of Haliotidis Concha（H. discus hannai）. ResultsThe CaCO₃ contents of the 20 batches of medicinal materials， decoction pieces and standard decoction of Haliotidis Concha（H. discus hannai） were 93.87%-98.95%， 96.02%-99.97% and 38.29%-51.96%， respectively， and the extract yield of standard decoction was 1.71%-2.37%， and the CaCO₃ transfer rate of decoction pieces-standard decoction was 0.68%-1.27%. XRF results showed that the elemental species and their relative contents contained in Haliotidis Concha and its calcined products had a high degree of similarity， and although there was no obvious difference in the elemental species contained in decoction pieces and standard decoction， the difference in the relative contents was obvious， which was mainly reflected in the decrease of the relative content of element Ca and the increase of the relative content of element Na. XRD results showed that Haliotidis Concha mainly contained CaCO₃ of aragonite and calcite， while calcined Haliotidis Concha only contained CaCO₃ of calcite， and standard decoction mainly contained CaCO₃ of calcite and Na₂CO₃ of natrite. FTIR results showed that there were internal vibrations of O-H， C-H， C=O， HCO₃^- and CO₃^2- groups in Haliotidis Concha， while O-H， HCO₃^- and CO₃^2- groups existed in the calcined products and standard decoction. ConclusionThe changes of Haliotidis Concha and calcined Haliotidis Concha are mainly the increase of CaCO₃ content， the transformation of CaCO₃ aragonite crystal form to calcite crystal form and the absence of organic components after calcination， and the changes of calcined products and standard decoction are mainly the decrease of CaCO₃ content and the increase of Na₂CO₃ relative content. The method established in the study is applicable to the quality control of the shellfish medicines-decoction pieces- standard decoction， which provides a new idea for the study of quality control of dispensing granules of shellfish medicines.

Objective To investigate the effect of Versican V0/V1 on biological behaviors of mouse dental papilla cells(mDPCs).Methods mDPCs were isolated from C57BL/6J mice at embryonic day 16.5(E16.5).A small interfering RNA(siRNA)constructed specifically for Versican V0/V1 was transfected into mDPCs.The silencing efficiency was verified by quantitative real-time fluorescence polymerase chain reaction(qRT-PCR)and immunofluorescence staining.The proliferation rate of mDPCs was determined using EdU assay;the migration ability of mDPCs was evaluated by scratch test and transwell assay.Alkaline phosphatase(ALP)staining and aliz-arin red staining were used to assess the mineralization capability of mDPCs.The molecules related to odontogenic differentiation and mineralization at mRNA levels were measured by qRT-PCR.Results After siRNA transfection,the mDPCs of si-Versican V0/V1 group showed weaker proliferation and migration abilities compared with si-NC group(P＜0.01).An enhanced ALP staining intensity,miner-alized nodule formation and up-regulations of the molecules related to odontogenic differentiation and mineralization at mRNA levels(P＜0.05)were observed in the mDPCs of si-Versican V0/V1 group.Conclusion Versican V0/V1 silencing inhibits the proliferation and migration of mDPCs,but enhances the abilities of odontogenic differentiation and mineralization.

Objective:To compare the results of invasive prenatal diagnosis and preimplantation genetic testing (PGT) and explore the underlying mechanism.Methods:Clinical data of pregnant women undergoing PGT and invasive prenatal diagnosis at the Sixth Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from January 2019 to December 2022 were collected. The results of PGT and invasive prenatal diagnosis were compared, and the outcomes of pregnancies were followed up. This study has been approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of the the Sixth Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University (No. 2022SLYEC-491).Results:A total of 172 couples were included in this study, and 26 non-targeted variants were discovered upon prenatal diagnosis, including 10 cases (38.5%) by chromosomal karyotyping, 15 (57.7%) by chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA), and 1 (3.8%) by whole exome sequencing. The 10 karyotypic anomalies had included 6 chromosomal polymorphisms, 2 chromosomal mosaicisms, 1 paternally derived translocation, and 1 missed maternal chromosomal inversion. CMA has identified 15 copy number variations (CNVs), which included 11 microdeletions and microduplications, 3 loss of heterozygosity, and 1 low-level mosaicism of paternal uniparental disomy. One CNV was classified as pathogenic, and another one was likely pathogenic, whilst the remaining 13 were classified as variants of uncertain significance. Therefore, 8.7% of CNVs was detected by invasive prenatal diagnosis after PGT. 92.3% (24/26) of the non-targeted variants have been due to technological limitations of next-generation sequencing (NGS).Conclusion:Invasive prenatal diagnosis after PGT can detect non-targeted variants, which may further reduce the incidence of birth defects.

Objective To investigate the effect of progesterone receptor membrane component 1(PGRMC1)mediated autophagy on the sensitivity of liver cancer cells to 125I particles irradiation.Methods Hepatoma cell lines Huh7 and LM3 were exposed to different doses(0,2,4,6 and 8 Gy)of 125I particles,and cell autophagy was observed by transmission electron microscopy(TEM).Then,autophagy inhibitor chloroquine(CQ),agonist rapamycin(Rapa),and PGRMC1 inhibitor AG-205 were used respectively to verify that PGRMC1-mediated autophagy plays a key role in the sensitivity of hepatocellular carcinoma cells to 125I particle irradiation.Cell proliferation,colony formation and apoptosis were detected by CCK-8 assay,clonal formation test and flow cytometry,respectively.The expression levels of PGRMC1,microtubule-associated protein light chain 3-Ⅰ(LC3-Ⅰ),LC3-Ⅱ and p62 were detected by Western blotting.Results Different doses of 125I particles irradiation significantly decreased the proliferation and clonogenesis of Huh7 and LM3 cells(P＜0.05),and increased the apoptotic cells(P＜0.01),in a dose-dependent manner.Compared with the 0 Gy group,the ratio of LC3-Ⅱ/LC3-Ⅰ in Huh7 and LM3 cells was obviously increased,and the expression of p62 was significantly down-regulated in the 6 Gy group.The proliferation capacity and clonal formation ability of Huh7 and LM3 cells were decreased significantly,and their apoptotic cells were increased notably in the 6 Gy+CQ group than the 6 Gy group,while the above results were on the contrary in the 6 Gy+Rapa group.The 6 Gy+AG205 group had notably decreased LC3-Ⅱ/LC3-Ⅰ ratio in the Huh7 and LM3 cells,up-regulated p62 expression,reduced cell proliferation capacity and clone formation ability,and enhanced cell apoptosis when compared with the 6 Gy group,and the above results of the 6 Gy+PGRMC1 group were opposite.Conclusion Increment of PGRMC1 induced by 125I irradiation can promote autophagy,increase the proliferation and clonogenesis,and reduce the apoptosis in hepatocellular carcinoma cells.

Objective To explore the effect of ligustrazine on the learning and memory function of rats with aluminum-induced cognitive impairment and its mechanism.Methods Sixty male Wistar rats were divided into a blank control group,a model group,a low-dose ligustrazine group,a high-dose ligustrazine group,and a piracetam group using a random number table method,with 12 rats in each group.The rats in the blank control group were not subjected to any treatment;the rats in the model group,low-dose ligustrazine group,high-dose ligustrazine group,and piracetam group were first prepared with aluminum toxicity models by daily gavage of 100 mg·kg-1 AlCl3 solution.After successful modeling,the rats in the piracetam group were intragastrically administered with piracetam at a dose of 400 mg·kg-1,while

piracetam group and high-dose ligustrazine group were significantly lower than those in the model group and low-dose ligustrazine group(P＜0.05);there was no statistically significant difference in the latent periods of rats between the low-dose ligustrazine group and the model group(P＞0.05).On the 3rd and 5th days of the Morris water maze test,there was no statistically significant difference in the latent periods of rats between the piracetam group and the high-dose ligustrazine group(P＞0.05).The times of rats crossing platform in the model group,piracetam group,low-dose ligustrazine group,and high-dose ligustrazine group were significantly lower than those in the blank control group,and the times of rats crossing platform in the piracetam group and high-dose ligustrazine group were significantly higher than those in the model group and low-dose ligustrazine group(P＜0.05);there was no statistically significant difference in the times of rats crossing platform between the low-dose ligustrazine group and the model group(P＞0.05);there was no statistically significant difference in the times of rats crossing platform between the piracetam group and the high-dose ligustrazine group(P＞0.05).Under the microscope,brown CACNA1E,CALM,and BDNF positive cells could be observed in the hippocampal CA1 region.The expressions of CACNA1E,CALM,and BDNF proteins in the hippocampal CA1 region of rats in the model group,piracetam group,low-dose ligustrazine group,and high-dose ligustrazine group were significantly lower than those in the blank control group,and the expressions of CACNA1E,CALM,and BDNF proteins in the hippocampal CAl region of rats in the piracetam group and high-dose ligustrazine group were significantly higher than those in the model group and low-dose ligustrazine group(P＜0.05);there was no statistically significant difference in the expressions of CACNA1E,CALM,and BDNF proteins in the hippocampal CAI region of rats between the low-dose

group,piracetam group,low-dose ligustrazine group,and high-dose ligustrazine group were significantly lower than those in the blank control group(P＜0.05);the relative expression levels of CACNA1E,CALM,and BDNF proteins and mRNAs in the hippocampal CA1 region of rats in the piracetam group and high-dose ligustrazine group were significantly higher than those in the model group and low-dose ligustrazine group(P＜0.05);there was no statistically significant difference in the relative expression levels of CACNA1E,CALM,and BDNF proteins and mRNAs in the hippocampal CA1 region of rats between the low-dose ligustrazine group and the model group(P＞0.05);there was no statistically significant difference in the relative expression levels of CACNA1E,CALM,and BDNF proteins and mRNAs in the hippocampal CA1 region of rats between the piracetam group and the high-dose ligustrazine group(P＞0.05).Conclusion Ligustrazine has significant protective effects on aluminum-induced cognitive impairment in rats and can greatly enhance the learning and memory function of rats.The mechanism may be related to the up-regulation of CANA1E,CALM and BDNF expression in the brain induced by ligustrazine.

OBJECTIVE To analyze the characteristics of levofloxacin-induced hypersensitivity reaction. METHODS Clinical pharmacists participated in the treatment for a case of levofloxacin-induced hypersensitivity reaction， and adjudged the relationship of levofloxacin with hypersensitivity reaction according to relative standards. Retrieved from CNKI， VIP， Wanfang database， PubMed and Embase， relevant literature about levofloxacin-induced hypersensitivity reaction was collected and analyzed. RESULTS Clinical pharmacists suggested checking the patient’s previous medication and allergy history based on symptoms such as fever and systemic rash， and determined that the drug hypersensitivity was “likely” or “highly likely” to be associated with levofloxacin. Clinicians provided symptomatic treatment to the patient based on the judgment of clinical pharmacists， and the patient improved after treatment. Results of the literature analysis showed that among 31 involved patients， there were 23 males and 8 females； 18 patients aged 50 and above； the incubation period of 24 patients was within 4 days after medication. The main adverse drug reactions were drug hypersensitivity syndrome， fixed drug eruption， erythema multiforme， etc. Most patients were improved after withdrawal and symptomatic treatment. CONCLUSIONS Hypersensitivity reaction is the rare adverse drug reaction of levofloxacin， mostly occurring within 2.5 h to 4 days after administration， and it is more likely to occur in middle-aged and elderly patients. Before clinical use， patients should be asked about their drug allergy history in detail； when patients experience fever or rash without obvious causes， medication should be stopped promptly and symptomatic treatment should be taken to ensure the safety and effectiveness of the patients’ medication.

OBJECTIVE To make up the research gap of the concept of collaboration between clinical pharmacists and physicians in China， and to provide a theoretical basis for further improving the collaboration. METHODS Literature analysis was used to sort out the existing concepts of collaboration. Combined with the current practice and development trend of the collaboration between clinical pharmacists and physicians in China， the basic elements of the concept were deconstructed and the connotation of each component of the concept was explained in detail. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS Based on the above theoretical research and practical analysis， the concept of collaboration between clinical pharmacists and physicians in the context of China was defined， that is， clinical pharmacists and physicians adhere to the patient-centered and rational drug use as the core in clinical drug therapy， and make joint decisions on drug management and drug therapy on the basis of communication， respect， trust and sharing， so as to ensure the effectiveness， safety and economy of clinical pharmaceutical care， and improve the coordination and cooperation process of comprehensive disease treatment system.

Object:To investigate the impact of carbon nanoparticle tracing on the number of lymph nodes harvested in obese patients during radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer.Methods:Clinical data of 127 patients undergoing D 2 radical gastrectomy in the Affiliated Tumor Hospital of Zhengzhou University from Jan 2015 to Dec 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. According to whether the patients were injected with carbon nano particles during operation, they were divided into two groups: 64 patients without carbon nano particles during operation served as control group; 63 patients with carbon nano particles were included into experimental group. Results:The operation time of the control group was (160±31) min and that of the experimental group was (168±28) min ( t=-1.521, P=0.445). Intraoperative blood lose in the control group was (234±82) ml and that in the experimental group was (238±84) ml ( t=-0.295, P=0.846). The number of lymph nodes harvested in the first station, in the second station, the number of total lymph nodes and the number of lymph nodes with diameter <5 mm in the control group were less than those in the experimental group(10.4±3.8 vs. 24.5±10.6, t=-10.054),(6.6±2.8 vs. 16.8±7.3, t=-10.381),(17.1±6.4 vs. 41.2±17.6, t=-10.293),(3.9±2.5 vs. 21.2±9.1, t=-14.662) (all P<0.05), while the number of positive lymph nodes was not statistically different between the two groups all (5.9±6.2 vs. 4.2±3.4, t=-1.963, P>0.05). Black staining of lymph nodes in nano carbon group: 1 542 black stained lymph nodes were detected in the experimental group, the black staining rate of lymph nodes was 59.44% (1 542/2 594). Conclusion:Intraoperative application of carbon nanoparticles can significantly increase the number of harvested lymph nodes in obese (BMI≥25 kg/m 2) gastric cancer patients after radical resection.
