Osteosarcoma is a highly aggressive malignant bone tumor whose immuno evasion mechanisms play a pivotal role in tumor progression and therapeutic resistance. Recent studies have identified mitochondrial transfer as a novel mode of intercellular communication that significantly influences metabolic reprogramming and immune evasion in osteosarcoma cells. This mechanism operates through three principal pathways: (1) enhancing energy metabolic efficiency in tumor cells; (2) mitigating intracellular oxidative stress; and (3) modulating immune checkpoint molecule expression. Collectively, these alterations impair host immune surveillance while promoting tumor proliferation, invasion, and distant metastasis through metabolic remodeling, immune tolerance induction, and tumor microenvironment reconstruction. This review systematically elucidates the molecular mechanisms by which mitochondrial transfer regulates immune evasion in osteosarcoma and its dynamic impact on the tumor microenvironment. Furthermore, we discuss the translational potential of targeting this pathway for precision therapy and outline future research directions in this emerging field.

ObjectiveTo investigate the therapeutic effect of Qingjie Huagong decoction （QJHGD） on a mouse model of severe acute pancreatitis （SAP） and the mechanism of action of QJHGD against inflammatory response. MethodsA total of 36 male C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into blank group， model group， Western medicine group （ulinastatin）， and low-， middle-， and high-dose QJHGD groups， with 6 mice in each group. All mice except those in the blank group were given 5% sodium taurocholate by retrograde pancreaticobiliary injection to establish a model of SAP. After modeling， the mice in the low-， middle-， and high-dose groups were given QJHGD （1， 2， and 4 g/kg， respectively） by gavage， and those in the Western medicine group were given intraperitoneal injection of ulinastatin （5×10⁴ U/kg）， for 7 days in total. HE staining was used to observe the histopathological changes of the pancreas； ELISA was used to measure the levels of α-amylase， lipase， interleukin-1β （IL-1β）， interleukin-6 （IL-6）， interleukin-8 （IL-8）， interleukin-18 （IL-18）， and tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α） in mice； RT-qPCR was used to measure the mRNA expression levels of NOD-like receptor protein3 （NLRP3）， Toll-like receptor 4 （TLR4）， and nuclear factor-kappa B （NF-κB） in pancreatic tissue； immunohistochemistry was used to measure the positive expression rates of NLRP3， TLR4， and NF-κB in pancreatic tissue； Western blot was used to measure the protein expression levels of NLRP3， TLR4， NF-κB， IL-1β， and IL-6. An analysis of variance was used for comparison of continuous data between multiple groups， and the least significant difference t-test was used for further comparison between two groups. ResultsCompared with the blank group， the model group had diffuse destruction of pancreatic tissue structure， focal dilatation of pancreatic lobular septum， pancreatic acinar atrophy， and massive inflammatory cell infiltration， as well as significant increases in the content of α-amylase， lipase， IL-1β， IL-6， IL-8， IL-18， and TNF-α （all P<0.05）， the mRNA expression levels and positive expression rates of NLRP3， TLR4， and NF-κB （all P<0.05）， and the protein expression levels of NLRP3， TLR4， NF-κB， IL-1β， and IL-6 （all P<0.05）. Compared with the model group， the low-， middle-， and high-dose QJHGD groups and the Western medicine group had slightly tighter and more intact structure of pancreatic tissue， ordered arrangement of pancreatic acinar cells， a small amount of inflammatory cell infiltration， and hemorrhagic foci of pancreatic lobules， as well as significant reductions in the content of α-amylase， lipase， IL-1β， IL-6， IL-8， IL-18， and TNF-α （all P<0.05）， the mRNA expression levels and positive expression rates of NLRP3， TLR4， and NF-κB （all P<0.05）， and the protein expression levels of NLRP3， TLR4， NF-κB， IL-1β， and IL-6 （all P<0.05）. ConclusionQJHGD may exert a protective effect on the pancreatic tissue of SAP mice by inhibiting the activation of NLRP3/TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway-related proteins， reducing the release of inflammatory mediators， and preventing the enhancement of inflammatory cascade response.

Objective To investigate the imaging features of intestinal schwannoma(IS)in order to improve the diagnostic ability of the disease.Methods The clinical and imaging data of 14 patients with surgically and pathologically confirmed IS were retrospectively analyzed,including the location,size,morphology,nature,growth pattern,CT density,MRI signal,PET/CT metabolism and other characteristics of the tumors.Results Of the 14 IS cases,the lesions of 3 cases were located in the duodenum,2 cases in the cecum,8 cases in the colon and 1 case in the rectum.The lesions were all round or oval,with an average maximum diameter of(2.4±1.1)cm.The lesions were solid in 13 cases,extraluminal growth in 10 cases,cystic degeneration in 1 case and myxoid degeneration in 1 case.Chronic inflammatory lymph nodes were seen around the diseased intestines in 9 cases,and the short diameter of lymph nodes was greater than 5 mm in 6 cases.All 14 cases of IS showed low attenuation on plain CT scan,and progressive enhancement after contrast injection,including 1 case of mild enhancement,2 cases of moderate enhancement,and 11 cases of obvious enhancement.Two cases of IS showed low signal intensity on T1WI,slightly high signal intensity on T2WI,significantly high signal intensity on DWI,and obvious progressive enhancement after contrast injection on MRI.Two cases of IS showed high metabolism on 18F-FDG-PET/CT,and the SUVmax was 9.4 and 8.8,respectively.Conclusion The imaging findings of IS were characteristic to a certain extent.They mainly manifested as solid nodules or masses derived from the intestinal submucosa,with uniform attenuation or signal intensity,obvious progressive enhancement after contrast injection,obvious hypermetabolism on 18F-FDG-PET/CT,and slightly larger homogeneous lymph nodes were common around the lesions.

Objective To investigate the clinical effect of superficial temporal artery-middle cerebral artery anastomosis(STA-MCA)in the treatment of patients with occlusive cerebrovascular disease.Methods A total of 74 patients with occlusive cerebrovascular disease admitted to our hospital were included and divided into the observation group and control group according to the random number table method,with 37 cases in each group.Patients in the control group received conservative treatment,and patients in the observation group received STA-MCA.After 3 months of follow-up,the cerebral blood flow indexes(including cerebral blood flow of anterior cerebral artery,and peak time)before treatment and 3rd day,1st month and 3rd month after treatment were observed,the modified Rankin scores before treatment and 3rd day and 1 month after treatment were recorded,and the revascularization and occurrence of complications after treatment were recorded.Results At 1 month and 3 months after treatment,the cerebral blood flow of anterior cerebral artery in the two groups increased and the peak time was shortened,and the cerebral blood flow of anterior cerebral artery in the observation group was higher than that in the control group,and the peak time was shorter than that in the control group,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).The modified Rankin scores of the two groups 1 month after treatment were lower compared with those before treatment,and the modified Rankin score of the observation group was lower than that of the control group,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).At 1 month after treatment,the proportions of patients with grades 0 and 1 of vascular reconstruction in the observation group were lower than those in the control group,and the proportions of patients with grades 2 and 3 were higher than those in the control group,with statistical significant differences(P<0.05).At 3 months after treatment,the proportions of patients with grades 0 and 1 of vascular reconstruction in the observation group were lower than those in the control group,and the proportion of patients with grade 3 of vascular reconstruction was higher than that in the control group,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the total incidence of complications after treatment between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusion STA-MCA has a good clinical effect in the treatment of patients with occlusive cerebrovascular disease,which is conducive to improving the cerebral blood flow indexes and promoting the recovery of neurological function and vascular reconstruction,with safety and reliability.

Monosodium urate (MSU)-induced the gouty arthritis (GA) model was used to investigate the effect of Nod-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inhibitor N14 in alleviating GA. Firstly, the effect of NLRP3 inhibitor N14 on the viability of mouse monocyte macrophage J774A.1 was examined by the cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay. The expression of mature interleukin 1β (IL-1β) and cysteinyl aspartate specific proteinase-1 (caspase-1) p20 in the cell supernatant and the expression of NLRP3, caspase-1 and pro-IL-1β proteins in the cell lysates was detected by Western blot for the inhibitory effect of N14 on the MSU-induced NLRP3 inflammasome activation in J774A.1 cells. Animal behavioral tests were used to detect redness, swelling, heat and pain in mice with gouty arthritis. Hematoxylin-eosin (H&E) staining revealed pathologic changes and inflammatory infiltration in foot sections. Protein expression of NLRP3, caspase-1, and pro-IL-1β in mouse hind paw tissues were assessed by Western blot. The effect of N14 on the plasma levels of alanine transaminase (ALT), aspartate transaminase (AST), creatinine (CRE), urea, and uric acid (UA) was investigated by the MSU-induced gouty arthritis model in mice. All animal experiments in this paper were approved by the Scientific Ethics Review Board of Qingdao Marine Biomedical Research Institute (grant No. E-MBWNL-2024-20). The experimental results showed that N14 did not exhibit cytotoxicity in mouse monocyte macrophage J774A.1 cells at concentrations up to 100 μmol·L^-1, and N14 effectively prevented MSU-induced activation of NLRP3 inflammasome. In the mouse gouty arthritis model, N14 significantly ameliorated the redness, swelling, heat and pain caused by GA, and down-regulated the levels of NLRP3 inflammasome-associated proteins in mouse hind paw tissues. Meanwhile, N14 appeared to be well tolerated, as it did not significantly affect various biochemical indices in mouse plasma. In conclusion, N14 effectively alleviated GA in mice by inhibiting the NLRP3 inflammasome pathway, which is important for both prevention and treatment of related diseases.

OBJECTIVE To design and synthesize novel α-naphthylthiol amino acid ester lysine specific demethylase 1(LSD1) inhibitors, evaluate their inhibitory activity with selectivity against LSD1, and explore their binding mechanism through molecular docking and dynamics simulation. METHODS Based on the binding mode of hit compound 3a with LSD1, the α- naphthyl mercapto amino acid ethyl ester small molecule compound were designed by fixing the planar hydrophobic naphthyl ring in the structure, while introducing hydrophilic amino fragment, and they were prepared through a multi-component one-pot cascade reaction. All the compounds were evaluated for their inhibitory activity against LSD1 at concentrations of 5.0 and 1.0 μmol·L–1 using the LSD1 screening platform of research group. The most potent compound was tested for its IC50 value and enzyme selectivity over MAO-A and MAO-B, and its binding mode was investigated through molecular docking and dynamics simulation. RESULTS A total of 13 compounds were obtained, all of which exhibited significant inhibitory effects on LSD1. Among them, nine compounds showed an inhibitory rate of over 50.0% against LSD1 at a concentration of 1.0 μmol·L–1, while compound 3l displaying the best activity with an IC50 value of 0.17 μmol·L–1, 174 times higher than the positive control. It also showed excellent selectivity towards MAO-A and MAO-B. Molecular docking and dynamics simulations indicated that compound 3l inhibited the activity of LSD1 through multiple interactions. CONCLUSION The structures of α-naphthylthiol amino acid ester can serve as lead compounds or active fragments, laying a solid foundation for the subsequent design of LSD1 inhibitors based on structure-oriented drug design.

Objective To investigate whether curcumin alleviates septic lung injury by inhibiting ferroptosis through modulating the TXNIP/TRX-1/GPX4 pathway.Methods Male C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into Sham group,cecal ligation puncture(CLP)-induced sepsis group,CLP with curcumin treatment(50,100,and 200 mg/kg)groups,and CLP with both curcumin(200 mg/kg)and TRX-1 inhibitor PX-12(25 mg/kg)treatment group.Inflammatory factors,MDA,MPO,and GSH levels in the lung tissue of the mice were detected.Beas-2B cells stimulated with lipopolysaccharide(LPS;1 μg/mL)were treated with 2.5,5,or 10 μmol/L curcumin or with 10 μmol/L curcumin combined with 5 μmol/L PX-12,and the changes in MDA,Fe2+and ROS levels were assessed.Western blotting was performed to detect the protein expressions of TXNIP,TRX-1,GPX4 and X-CT in both the mouse lung tissues and Beas-2B cells.Results The mice with CLP-induced sepsis showed severe lung injury with elevated expressions of IL-6,IL-1β,TNF-α,MDA and MPO and decreased GSH expression.In Beas-2B cells,LPS stimulation significantly increased MDA and Fe2+levels and ROS release,increased TXNIP protein expression,and lowered the protein expression levels of TRX-1,GPX4 and X-CT,and these changes were also observed in the septic mice.Curcumin treatments at different concentrations obviously alleviated lung injury in the septic mice and reduced LPS-induced injury in Beas-2B cells.Curcumin significantly decreased the release of inflammatory factors,MDA and MPO,increased GSH level,lowered Fe2+,MDA and ROS levels,increased TXNIP protein expression,and lowered the protein expressions of TRX-1,GPX4 and X-CT in both septic mouse lung tissues and LPS-stimulated Beas-2B cells.The protective effect of curcumin was effectively blocked by PX-12 treatment.Conclusion Curcumin inhibits ferroptosis and alleviates septic lung injury in mice by elevating TRX-1 and GPX4 and decreasing TXNIP in the lung tissue.

Curettage is the main treatment method for oral maxillofacial cystic lesions,but simple curettage may easily damage surrounding structures such as adjacent teeth and nerves,leading to incomplete removal of the cyst and large jaw defects.The curettage assisted by endoscopy can provide a good surgical field for the surgeons,can clearly identify the important anatomical structure during the operation and can remove the cyst wall tissue as much as possible,thereby reducing the damage and reducing the recurrence rate of the lesion.This article combines the characteristics of maxillofacial surgery with clinical treatment experience,summarizes relevant literature from both domestic and international sources,and engages in discussions with experts in order to provide reference for the clinical treatment of jaw cystic lesions with endo-scope assisted curettage.

Aim To investigate the effect of homocys-teine(Hcy)on the permeability of pulmonary micro-vascular endothelial cells(PMVECs)and the role and mechanism of RASAL1.Methods CBS+/-mice were fed a high methionine diet(HMD)for 16 weeks to replicate an animal model of hyperhomocysteinemia(HHcy).HE staining was used to observe the changes in lung tissue structure.qRT-PCR was used to detect the levels of RASAL1 and DNMT1 mRNA in lung tis-sue.Western blot was used to detect the expression of RASAL1,DNMT1,ZO-1,and VE cadherin proteins.Methylation specific PCR was used to detect methyla-tion in the RASAL1 promoter region.PMVECs were transfected with Ad-RASAL1 to detect the expression of ZO-1 and VE cadherin.The si-DNMT1 interference fragment was transfected into PMVECs,and the ex-pression of the RASAL1 was detected by qRT-PCR and Western blot.Results Serum Hcy level of HMD mice was significantly raised,and HE staining showed severe structural disorder in lung tissue.The expres-sion of RASAL1,ZO-1,and VE cadherin was de-creased,while the expression of DNMT1 was in-creased.The degree of methylation in the RASAL1 promoter region was raised.The expression of ZO-1 and VE cadherin increased after PMVECs were trans-fected with Ad-RASAL1.After knocking down DN-MT1,RASAL1 expression was increased.Conclusion Hcy can increase the permeability of PMVECs,and its mechanism is related to the upregulation of RASAL1 methylation level.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.
