The abuse of novel phenylcyclohexylpyridine drugs poses a significant threat to societal safety. The novel psychoactive substance 2-methyl-deschloroketamine (2-MDCK), belonging to the phenylcyclohexylpyridine class, has recently surfaced as a new compound. However, there is a lack of understanding regarding its metabolic pathways and the identification of suitable biomarkers. In this study, a human liver microsomal model was established, and ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS) technology was applied to investigate the in vitro metabolism and products of 2-MDCK. The results indicate that 2-MDCK undergoes various metabolic reactions, including dehydrogenation, deamination, hydroxylation, and demethylation, leading to the formation of eight metabolites. By conducting actual testing on hair samples from 2-MDCK abusers, the existence of six metabolites was confirmed. Comparing the metabolic products in the liver microsomal in vitro model, M3.1 and M4.1 were identified as biomarkers for 2-MDCK consumption. Five samples of abusers of 2-methyl-dechloroketamine were provided by the Anti-Drug Brigade of the Hangzhou Public Security Bureau. Negative hair samples were provided by laboratory volunteers, and all samples were obtained with the informed consent of the volunteers. These findings provide a scientific basis for the detection and identification of 2-MDCK and its metabolites, as well as crucial support for the study of the metabolic mechanisms of similar novel psychoactive substances in the phenylcyclohexylpyridine class. This research holds significant importance in addressing the issue of abuse of new psychoactive substances.

Autophagy is an essential cellular metabolic process that involves clearance of damaged organelles and protein aggregates in cells through lysosomes,providing energy for cells,and maintaining cellular tissue homeostasis.Impaired autophagy is closely related to the pathophysiology of a variety of diseases.In the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis(AS),the dysfunction of autophagy of vascular cells plays a crucial role in the formation and progression of AS.The functional status,survival or death of vascular cells,including endothelial cells,vascular smooth muscle cells and macrophages,can influence the formation and stability of plaques,thereby affecting the progression of AS.This review summarizes the relationship between autophagy and AS,and details the impact of autophagy dysfunction on vascular cell function in the process of AS,as well as the role of mitophagy and inflammasome in the development of AS,aiming to provide novel insights for the prevention and treatment of AS.

Human brain banks use a standardized protocol to collect,process and store post-mortem human brains and related tissues,along with relevant clinical information,and to provide the tissue samples and data as a resource to foster neuroscience research according to a standardized operating protocols(SOP).Human brain bank serves as the foundation for neuroscience research and the diagnosis of neurological disorders,highlighting the crucial rule of ensuring the consistency of standardized quality for brain tissue samples.The first version of SOP in 2017 was published by the China Human Brain Bank Consortium.As members increases from different regions in China,a revised SOP was drafted by experts from the China Human Brain Bank Consortium to meet the growing demands for neuroscience research.The revised SOP places a strong emphasis on ethical standards,incorporates neuropathological evaluation of brain regions,and provides clarity on spinal cord sampling and pathological assessment.Notable enhancements in this updated version of the SOP include reinforced ethical guidelines,inclusion of matching controls in recruitment,and expansion of brain regions to be sampled for neuropathological evaluation.

Aim To investigate the therapeutic effect of luteolin(LUT)on myasthenia gravis(MG)rats and its mechanism.Methods Female Lewis rats were di-vided into five groups:C group,MG group,low dose luteolin group(L-LUT),medium dose luteolin group(M-LUT)and high dose luteolin group(H-LUT),with 12 rats in each group.Rats in C group were nor-mal control rats.Rats in other groups were MG model rats induced by subcutaneous injection of Rα97-116.Rats in C group and MG group were intragastrically fed with 1 mL corn oil.Rats in L-LUT group,M-LUT group and H-LUT group were intragastrically infused with 1 mL 10,20 and 40 mg·kg-1 luteolin solution,respectively.The administration period was four weeks.Lennon grading method was used to score clini-cal symptoms,and EMG evoked potential instrument was used to detect the attenuation rate of low frequency repetitive nerve stimulation(RNS).The morphology of skeletal muscle was observed by hematoxylin eosin(HE)staining.The levels of serum AChR antibody(AChR-Ab),interferon gamma(IFN-γ)and interleu-kin-4(IL-4)were detected by ELISA method.The activity of superoxide dismutase(SOD)in skeletal muscle was detected by visible spectrophotometry,and glutathione peroxidase(GSH-Px)and malondialde-hyde(MDA)were detected by micromethod.The mR-NA levels of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptorγ coactivator-1α(PGC-1α),nuclear respiratory factor 1(NRF1)and mitochondrial transcription factor A(TFAM)in skeletal muscle were measured by qRT-PCR.The protein expression levels of AMP-activated protein kinase α(AMPKα)and p-AMPKα in skeletal muscle were detected by Western blot.Results Com-pared with C group,Lennon score and RNS decay rate in MG group increased,AChR-Ab and IFN-γ levels increased,skeletal muscle showed obvious injury,SOD and GSH-Px levels decreased,MDA levels in-creased,p-AMPKα protein expression levels and PGC-1α,NRF1 and TFAM mRNA levels decreased(P＜0.05).Compared with MG group,Lennon score and RNS decay rate in L-LUT group and M-LUT group M and H-LUT group decreased,AChR-Ab and IFN-γlevels decreased,skeletal muscle damage was allevia-ted,SOD and GSH-Px levels increased,MDA levels decreased,p-AMPKα protein expression levels and PGC-1α,NRF1 and TFAM mRNA levels increased(P＜0.05).Conclusion The mechanism of luteolin in treating MG rats may be related to correcting the bal-ance of Th1/Th2 cells and activating AMPK.

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.

Objective:To explore whether thiotert treatment can inhibit proliferation and induce apoptosis in myelodysplastic syndromes(MDS)cells.Methods:CCK-8 assay was used for determining the cytotoxicity of thiotert to MDS cell line SKM-1 and the reversal effect of GSH,NAC,and Z-VAD-FMK on thiotert-induced inhibition of cell viability.EdU assay was deployed to detect the cell proliferation ability.Intracellular reactive oxygen species(ROS)was measured by flow cytometry after DCFH-DA staining.The expression of DNA damage-and apoptosis-related proteins was detected by Western blot.Results:Thiotert treatment significantly suppressed the cell viability and proliferation ability in SKM-1 cells.A large amount of ROS generation and markedly elevated C-PARP,C-Caspase 3,and γ-H2AX were observed after thiotert administration,while BCL-2 was significantly decreased.In addition,GSH,NAC,and Z-VAD-FMK were able to mitigate the cytotoxicity of thiotert on SKM-1 cells.Conclusion:Thiotert can promote MDS cell apoptosis by mediating ROS production and pro-apoptotic proteins expression.

Objective To predict the mechanism of Danhong injection in acute myocardial infarction based on network pharmacology and molecular docking.Methods The chemical ingredients of Danhong injection were collected by traditional Chinese medicine systems pharmacology database and analysis platform(TCMSP),while Swiss Target Prediction was used to predict the corresponding targets of ingredients.The targets of acute myocardial infarction were retrieved in human gene database(GeneCards),online Mendelian inheritance in man(OMIM)and gene-disease association database(DisGeNET).Venny 2.1 online software was used to obtain the common targets of drugs-disease,and then the"drug-compound-target-disease"network diagram was constructed by using the software Cytoscape 3.8.2.The STRING database was used to draw the protein-protein ineraction network,and the perform gene ontology(GO)function and Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes(KEGG)pathway enrichment analysis were carried out through the database for annotation,visualization,and integrated discovery(DAVID),and the AutoDock platform was applied in verifying the molecular docking of active components and protein targets.Results The 63 active components of Danhong injection could regulate 137 targets and 132 pathways to treat acute myocardial infarction.Przewaquinone C,luteolin,baicalein,sclareol,kaempferol,quercetagetin and other active compounds,which could mediate C-type lectin receptor,tumor necrosis factor,endocrine resistance,prolactin,phosphatidylinositol-3-kinases-serine/threonine protein kinase,Janus-activated kinase singal transducers and activators of transcriprion and other signaling pathways through tumor necrosis factor,RAC-alpha serine/threo-nine protein kinase,interleukin-1 beta,steroid receptor coactivator,mitogen-activated protein kinase 3,signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 and other key target proteins.The result of molecular docking showed that the targets and the components had a certain degree of binding.Conclusion Danhong injection can participate in the treatment of acute myocardial infarction through multiple components,targets and pathways,which provides a theoretical basis for the clinical application of Danhong injection and the mechanism of its treatment of acute myocardial infarction.

Objective To investigate the value of electrocardiogra(ECG)P-wave parameters com-bined with serum adiponectin and visfatin(VF)in predicting recurrence of atrial fibrillation(AF)after radiofrequency ablation.Methods A total of 120 AF patients(AF group)admitted to our hospital from March 2021 to March 2023 were enrolled,and divided into a recurrence group(39 cases)and a non-recurrence group(81 cases)according to the postoperative condition.Another 120 healthy individuals who took physical examination in the same period were enrolled and served as control group.All subjects underwent ECG.ELISA was used to detect adiponectin and VF levels.Logistic regression analysis was used to identify the influencing factors of postoperative recur-rence in AF patients.ROC curve was plotted to analyze the predictive value of P-wave parameters combined with serum adiponectin and VF for postoperative recurrence in AF patients.The P-wave parameters included P-wave duration(PWD),maximum PWD(Pmax),minimum PWD,and P-wave dispersion(Pd).Results PWD,Pmax and Pd were significantly decreased in AF patients after operation(P＜0.01).Serum adiponectin level was obviously lower and that of VF was nota-bly higher in the AF group than the control group(6.15±1.58 μg/L vs 11.43±2.26 μg/L,12.05±2.30 μg/L vs 6.23±1.02 μg/L,P＜0.01).The recurrence group had remarkably higher preopera-tive PWD,Pmax and Pd,and lower adiponectin and higher VF levels than the non-recurrence group(P＜0.01).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that PWD,Pmax,Pd,and VF were risk factors,and adiponectin was a protective factor for postoperative recurrence in AF pa-tients(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).ROC curve analysis indicated that PWD,Pmax,Pd,adiponectin and VF combined together to detect postoperative recurrence in AF patients had an AUC value of 0.972,which was higher than that of above indicators alone(Z=2.574,Z=2.567,Z=2.543,Z=2.554,Z=2.586,P＜0.05).Conclusion ECG P-wave parameters as well as elevated serum VF and re-duced serum adiponectin are influencing factors for postoperative recurrence in AF patients,and their combined detection may promote the predictive value for postoperative recurrence in them.
