Non-small cell lung cancer is one of the primary types of cancer that leads to brain metastases. Approximately 10% of patients with non-small cell lung cancer have brain metastases at the time of diagnosis, and 26%-53% of patients develop brain metastases during the progression of their disease. However, the underlying mechanisms of lung cancer brain metastasis have not been fully elucidated. With the continuous development of single-cell and spatial transcriptomics, the genomic and transcriptomic characteristics of lung cancer brain metastasis are gradually being revealed. In February 2025, the journal Nature Medicine published an article titled "Single-cell and spatial genomic landscape of non-small cell lung cancer brain metastases". This article aims to provide a brief interpretation of the paper for colleagues in research and clinical practice.

Objective To investigate the correlation between preoperative N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptidogen(NT-proBNP)levels and early postoperative outcomes in elderly and critically ill pa-tients with hip fractures.Methods A total of 593 elderly and critically ill patients with hip fractures from January 2018 to April 2021 were selected,including 189 males and 404 females,aged≥65 years,BMI 12.0-35.5 kg/m2,ASA physical status Ⅱ-Ⅳ.General preoperative information,intraoperative and post-operative discharge outcomes of patients were retrospectively obtained by the electrical clinical medical record system or telephone follow-up.The receiver operator characteristic(ROC)curve of preoperative plas-ma NT-proBNP and postoperative 30-day death was plotted,and the corresponding optimal cut-off value was 1 765.0 pg/ml.According to NT-proBNP values,the patients were divided into two groups:low-ratio group(NT-proBNP≤1 765.0 pg/ml,group L,n = 463)and high-ratio group(NT-proBNP＞1 765.0 pg/ml,group H,n = 130).The correlation between different plasma concentrations of NT-proBNP before surgery and ICU length of stay,total length of stay,postoperative complications,and 30-day mortality rate were an-alyzed using univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis.Results Compared with group L,age,preoperative comorbidities with coronary heart disease,arrhythmia,chronic heart failure,lung disease,and chronic kidney disease,as well as mortality within 30 days after surgery were significantly increased in group H(P＜0.05).The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that high preoperative plasma NT-proBNP concentration was positive correlation with postoperative ICU length of stay(OR = 1.215,95%CI 1.073-1.375,P = 0.020)and 30-day mortality rate(OR = 32.696,95%CI 7.158-149.338,P＜0.001).Conclusion High preoperative plasma NT-proBNP concentration is positive correlation with postoperative ICU hospitalization timeand 30-day mortality.

A major impedance to neuronal regeneration after peripheral nerve injury(PNI)is the activation of various programmed cell death mechanisms in the dorsal root ganglion.Ferroptosis is a form of pro-grammed cell death distinguished by imbalance in iron and thiol metabolism,leading to lethal lipid peroxidation.However,the molecular mechanisms of ferroptosis in the context of PNI and nerve regeneration remain unclear.Ferroportin(Fpn),the only known mammalian nonheme iron export protein,plays a pivotal part in inhibiting ferroptosis by maintaining intracellular iron homeostasis.Here,we explored in vitro and in vivo the involvement of Fpn in neuronal ferroptosis.We first delineated that reactive oxygen species at the injury site induces neuronal ferroptosis by increasing intracellular iron via accelerated UBA52-driven ubiquitination and degradation of Fpn,and stimulation of lipid peroxidation.Early administration of the potent arterial vasodilator,hydralazine(HYD),decreases the ubiquitination of Fpn after PNI by binding to UBA52,leading to suppression of neuronal cell death and significant ac-celeration of axon regeneration and motor function recovery.HYD targeting of ferroptosis is a promising strategy for clinical management of PNI.

BACKGROUND:Adjustable piezoelectric effect can promote tissue regeneration and repair.Piezoelectric materials are widely used in weight-bearing tissue engineering. OBJECTIVE:To prepare a piezoelectric film material that can promote bone regeneration,and to explore its structural characterization,electrical output performance,biocompatibility,and effect of electrical output on osteogenic differentiation of rabbit bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. METHODS:Using poly-3-hydroxybutyrateco/4-hydroxybutyrate(P34HB)as raw material,barium calcium stannate titanate powder(Ba0.94Ca0.06Sn0.08Ti0.92O3,BCST)was added according to mass ratios of 0%,5%,10%,15%,and 20%.Dichloromethane was added to solve P34HB,and the thickness of 150-200 μm BCST/P34HB piezoelectric film was prepared by vacuum drying method.After polarization in the oil bath,the surface morphology,crystal phase composition,piezoelectric coefficient and open circuit voltage were tested.The effect of BCST/P34HB electrical output at 110 Hz and 0.25 N force on the proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of rabbit bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells was tested. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Scanning electron microscopy,X-ray diffraction,water contact angle,piezoelectric coefficient and electrical output performance tests showed that when the mass ratio of BCST increased to 20%,the BCST/P34HB piezoelectric film had good piezoelectric properties(d33=5.9 pC/N)and electrical output performance(180 mV),which was closer to the suitable range of 500 mV for electrical stimulation.(2)Live and dead staining showed that on the first day of co-culture,15%group and 20%group showed less red fluorescence.On the 5th day of culture,the number of green fluorescence in each group was significantly higher than that on the first day,and the red fluorescence was not observed in the 10%,15%and 20%groups,and only a small amount of red fluorescence was observed in the 0%and 5%groups.(3)On the 1st,3rd and 5th days of co-culture with rabbit bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells,Almar blue staining exhibited that the number of cells in each group showed an increasing trend with the increase of time.On the 5th day of culture,the number of cells in the 20%group was significantly more than that in the 0%group(P<0.05).(4)On day 10 of osteogenic induction,alkaline phosphatase staining results showed that the positive rate of the 20%group was significantly higher than that of the 0%group(P=0.000 1).On day 21,alizarin red staining and quantitative analysis of calcium nodules showed a similar trend to alkaline phosphatase staining.Compared with the 0%group,the 15%group and 20%group showed significant differences(P<0.01,P<0.000 1).(5)The results showed that 20%BCST/P34HB films had good piezoelectric properties,electrical output properties,biocompatibility and the ability of promoting osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells.

Objective:By observing the effects of Calycosin on the proliferation and migration of human renal cancer 769-P cell, to explore the possible molecular mechanism of Calycosin against renal cancer.Methods:769-P cell were cultured with different concentrations of Calycosin [0, 12.5, 25, 50, 100, 200 μmol/L, dissolved in Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)], and the effects of different concentrations of Calycosin on the viability of 769-P cell was detected by CCK8 method. The 769-P cell treated with 200 μmol/L Calycosin were used as the Calycosin group, and the 769-P cell treated with DMSO were used as the control group. The cell colony formation assay and cell scratch assay were used to detect the effects of Calycosin on the proliferation and migration of 769-P cell, respectively. Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was used to detect the effect of Calycosin on the expression of miRNA-1246 and chemokine receptor-4 (CXCR4) in 769-P cell. Western blotting method was used to detect the effects of Calycosin on the expression of CXCR4 and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) pathway proteins in 769-P cell. Measurement data were expressed as mean ± standard deviation ( ± s), and one-way ANOVA was used for comparison between multiple groups, while t-test was used for comparison between two groups. Results:After cultured with 0, 12.5, 25, 50, 100, and 200 μmol/L of Calycosin, the absorbance values of renal cancer 769-P cell were 0.99 ± 0.06, 0.74 ± 0.07, 0.60 ± 0.03, 0.55 ± 0.05, 0.40 ± 0.06, 0.21 ± 0.04, respectively; compared with 0 μmol/L, the Calycosin could reduce the survival rate of 769-P cell ( P<0.05). The number of clones of 769-P cell in the control group and the Calycosin group was 109.80 ± 13.19 and 60.66 ± 11.22, respectively, and the number of clones of the 769-P cell in the Calycosin group was decreased, the difference was statistically significant ( t=5.67, P<0.01). The relative migration rates of 769-P cell in the control group and the Calycosin group were (43.13 ± 3.82)% and (14.27 ± 3.25)%, respectively, after the 769-P cell were treated with Calycosin, the cell migration ability was weakened ( t=5.71, P<0.05). The relative expression levels of miRNA-1246 in 769-P cell of the control group and the Calycosin group was 1.03 ± 0.12 and 6.99 ± 1.84, respectively, and the relative expression levels of CXCR4 mRNA was 7.17 ± 2.96 and 0.98 ± 0.06, respectively, showed that Calycosin can up-regulate the expression of miRNA-1246 in 769-P cell ( t=3.24, P<0.01), and down-regulate the expression of CXCR4 mRNA ( t=4.18, P<0.01). Compared with the control group, the Calycosin could down-regulate the expression of CXCR4 protein and ERK pathway protein in 769-P cell. Conclusion:Calycosin can inhibit the proliferation and migration of renal cancer 769-P cell, and its mechanism may be related to up-regulating the expression of miRNA-1246 and blocking the CXCR4/ERK pathway.

Conclusion:Astaxanthin may alleviate acute liver injury induced by α-amanitin by alleviating oxidative stress in mice liver.

OBJECTIVE To explore the effect of single dose and multiple doses of silibinin on the in vivo pharmacokinetics of nevirapine in rats. METHODS Thirty male SD rats were randomly divided into blank control group, multiple administration of low-dose group(30 mg·kg−1) , multiple administration of high-dose group(100 mg·kg−1), single administration low-dose group(30 mg·kg−1) , and single administration high-dose group(100 mg·kg−1). Blood samples were collected to determine the concentration of nevirapine and its metabolites in rat plasma after an oral administration of 10 mg·kg−1 nevirapine. The kinetic parameters of nevirapine and its metabolites in each group were calculated by DAS and analyzed statistically. RESULTS Compared with the blank control group, multiple doses of 100 mg·kg−1·d−1 silibinin significantly increased the AUC of nevirapine by 61.78%, Cmax by 124.62% and decreased the clearance rate to 64.11%; multiple doses of 30 mg·kg−1·d−1 silibinin significantly increased the Cmax of nevirapine by 84.85%; a single dose of 100 mg·kg−1 or 30 mg·kg−1 silibinin significantly increased the Cmax of nevirapine by 65.19% and 32.12%, respectively. The metabolic ratio of 12-hydroxy-nervirapine was decreased by 31.5% by multiple doses of 100 mg·kg−1·d−1 silibinin where the pharmacokinetic parameters of 4-carboxyl-nervirapine remained unchanged. CONCLUSION Silibinin significantly affects the pharmacokinetics of nevirapine in rats. The drug-drug interaction should be considered when nevirapine and silibinin are concomitant.
