Photothermal therapy is a new type of tumor therapy that uses near-infrared laser to specifically activate the photothermal agent accumulated in the lesion site, so as to achieve thermal ablation of cancer cells. However, the long metabolic cycle and difficult clearance of photothermal agent materials in vivo are also one of the major obstacles hindering their clinical transformation. In this work, we used hemoglobin as a novel stabilizer, hexachloroplatinic acid as a novel oxidant, and pyrrole as a monomer to prepare hemoglobin-stabilized platinum-based polypyrrole nanoparticles (Hb@PtP) by a one-step oxidative polymerization method and investigated in detail to study their physicochemical properties, such as morphology and structure. After polyethylene glycol modification, the particle size of obtained Hb@PtPP was 99.08 ± 8.3 nm and the zeta potential was -18.7 ± 1.2 mV. Transmission electron microscopy showed that the Hb@PtPP nanoparticles exhibited irregular spherical shape and uniform dispersion in the system. Under the irradiation of 808 nm laser with different power densities, Hb@PtPP showed power density-dependent temperature-raising behavior, and CCK-8 and dead-live staining experiments confirmed that they could effectively exert the photothermal effect to kill tumor cells. Small living animal imaging results demonstrated that Hb@PtPP had good tumor targeting and retention ability, and achieved tumor growth inhibition and ablation in vivo under laser excitation. All animal experiments involved in the study were performed in accordance with the program approved by the Animal Care and Use Committee of the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, Beijing Union Medical College, Institute of Radiation Medicine [IRM/2-IACUC-2312-005].

Objective To investigate the effects of circDNMT1 on the proliferation,apoptosis and epithelial-mesenchymal transition(EMT)of triple-negative breast cancer(TNBC)cells by regulating miR-377-3p/PUM1 axis.Methods The TNBC tissues and adjacent normal tissues of 24 patients with TNBC treated in Danzhou People's Hospital from 2018 to 2021 were collected.qRT-PCR and Western blot were used to detect the expression of circDNMT1,miR-377-3p,and PUM1 protein in tissue and mouse normal breast epithelial cell line HC11 and TNBC cell lines 4T1,Eph41424,and JC.4T1 cells were divided into the 4T1 group(untransfected),the si-NC group(transfected with si-NC),the si-DNMT1 group(transfected with si-DNMT1),the si-DNMT1+anti-NC group(simultaneously transfected with si-DNMT1 and anti-NC),and the si-DNMT1+anti-miR-377-3p group(simultaneously transfected with si-DNMT1 and anti-miR-377-3p).qRT-PCR was used to detect the expression of circDNMT1 and miR-377-3p of 4T1 cells in each group;CCK-8 was used to detect the proliferation of 4T1 cells in each group;flow cytometry was used to detect the apoptosis of 4T1 cells in each group;Western blot was used to detect the expression of PUM1,EMT-related proteins and apoptosis-related proteins of 4T1 cells in each group;TargetScan website was used to predict the binding sites of miR-377-3p with circDNMT1 and PUM1;dual luciferase report was used to verify the targeting relationships of miR-377-3p with circDNMT1 and PUM1.After inoculation with 4T1 cells,BALB/c mice were randomly divided into the blank control group(injected with equal amount of normal saline),the negative control group(injected with si-NC via tail vein),the DNMT1 silencing group(injected with si-DNMT1 via tail vein),the combined control group(injected with si-DNMT1 and anti-NC via tail vein),and the combined silencing group(injected with si-DNMT1 and anti-miR-377-3p via tail vein),the tumor massess of mice were recorded and the morphological changes of tumors were observed by hematoxylin-eosin staining.Results circDNMT1 and PUM1 were up-regulated in TNBC tissues and cells,and miR-377-3p was down-regulated.The expression difference was most obvious in 4T1 cells,so 4T1 cells were selected for subsequent experiments.Compared with the 4T1 group and the si-NC group,the expression of miR-377-3p,the apoptosis rate of 4T1 cells,the expression levels of Bax,cleaved caspase-3 and E-cadherin protein of 4T1 cells in the si-DNMT1 group were significantly increased(P<0.05),the circ-DNMT1 level,the expression level of PUM1 protein,OD values at 24 hours and 48 hours,the expression level of Bcl-2,N-cadherin,Vimentin protein were significantly decreased(P<0.05).Compared with the si-DNMT1 group and the si-DNMT1+anti-NC group,the expression of miR-377-3p,the apoptosis rate of 4T1 cells,the expression levels of Bax,cleaved caspase-3 and E-cadherin proteins of 4T1 cells in the si-DNMT1+anti-miR-377-3p group were significantly decreased(P<0.05),the expression level of PUM1 protein,OD values at 24 hours and 48 hours,the expression levels of Bcl-2,N-cadherin,Vimentin proteins were significantly increased(P<0.05).Compared with the miR-NC+WT-circDNMT1 group,the cell luciferase activity in the miR-377-3p mimic+WT-circDNMT1 group was significantly decreased(P<0.05);compared with the miR-NC+WT-PUM1 group,the cell luciferase activity in the miR-377-3p mimic+WT-PUM1 group was significantly decreased(P<0.05).The tumor cells in the blank control group and the negative control group were densely arranged with clear boundary;the tumor cells in the DNMT1 silencing group and the combined control group were loosely arranged,the nuclei were pyknotic,and the cell fragments were increased;the tumor cells in the combined silencing group were densely arranged and the boundaries tended to be clear.Compared with the blank control group and the negative control group,the tumor mass of mice in the DNMT1 silencing group was significantly decreased(P<0.05).Compared with the DNMT1 silencing group and the combined control group,the tumor mass of mice in the combined silencing group was significantly increased(P<0.05).Conclusion Silencing circDNMT1 may inhibit the expression of PUM1 by up-regulating miR-377-3p,thereby inhibiting the proliferation and EMT of TNBC cells,and promoting cell apoptosis.

Fibromyalgia syndrome （FMS） is a refractory， chronic non-articular rheumatic disease characterized by widespread pain throughout the body， for which there are no satisfactory therapeutic drugs or options. There are rich Chinese medical therapies， and some non-drug therapies， such as acupuncture， Tai Chi， and Ba-Duan-Jin， have shown satisfactory efficacy and safety and definite advantages of simultaneously adjusting mind and body. FMS is taken as a disease responding specifically to traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） by the National Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine in 2018. In order to clarify the research progress in FMS and the clinical advantages of TCM/integrated Chinese and Western medicine， the China Academy of Chinese Medicine organized a seminar for nearly 20 experts in Chinese and Western medicine， including rheumatology， psychology， acupuncture and moxibustion， and encephalopathy， with the topic of difficulties in clinical diagnosis and treatment of FMS and advantages of TCM and Western medicine. The recommendations were reached on the difficulties in early diagnosis and solutions of FMS， mitigation of common non-specific symptoms， preferential analgesic therapy， TCM pathogenesis and treatment advantages， and direction of treatment with integrated Chinese and Western medicine. FMS is currently facing the triple dilemma of low early correct diagnosis， poor patient participation， and unsatisfactory benefit from pure Western medicine treatment. To solve the above problems， this paper suggests that rheumatologists should serve as the main diagnostic force of this disease， and they should improve patient participation in treatment decision-making， implement exercise therapy， and fully utilize the holistic and multidimensional features of TCM， which is effective in alleviating pain， improving mood， and decreasing adverse events. In addition， it is suggested that FMS treatment should rely on both TCM and Western medicine and adopt multidisciplinary joint treatment， which is expected to improve the standard of diagnosis and treatment of FMS in China.

The paper is to establish an UPLC-MS/MS method for the simultaneous determination of 19 components in Microctis Folium from different production areas. The 50% methanol was used as extraction solvent. The Agilent ZORBAX SB C18 (150 mm × 2.1 mm, 1.8 μm) column was used; mobile phase was acetonitrile - 0.1% acetic acid with gradient elution, flow rate was 0.3 mL·min^-1, colume temperature was 30 ℃, and the injection volume was 2 μL; electrospray ionizaton source was used and detected in negative ion mode. The results showed that the established UPLC-MS/MS method could well separate the 19 components, and the methodological investigation results of 19 components were good. By means of orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA), 28 batches of Microctis Folium samples from different production areas can be divided into three categories, Guangdong, Guangxi and Hainan are each classified into one category, and 10 signature compounds which affecting the quality differences of different production areas were screened out. The established method is accurate, reliable, sensitive and reproducible. It can provide a basis for the establishment of the quality standard of Microctis Folium, as well as for safety and quality research.

Photodynamic therapy is an emerging cancer therapy with clinical prospects, which plays a specific role in the tumor site and causes less harm to the human body. However, the toxicity of small molecules of hydrophobic photosensitizer, the tumor hypoxia microenvironment, and the biodegradability of nano-carrier systems affect its antitumor efficacy and metabolic clearance in vivo. In this paper, hexachloroplatinic acid was used as a novel oxidizing agent to initiate oxidative polymerization of pyrrole/amino pyrrole to achieve the amino functionalization; further reduced platinum acid anion in the nanostructures into platinum nanoclusters by sodium borohydride as a reducing agent to fabricate platinum nanocluster-doped polypyrrole nanoparticles (PtPPy); and finally, this functional nanoparticles delivering meso-tetra (4-carboxyphenyl) porphine (TCPP) were obtained by amide-bonded coupling of photosensitizers TCPP drug (PtPPy@T). The nanomedicine had a spherical structure, uniform morphology, a particle size of 91.93 ± 13.45 nm, and a zeta potential of -18.39 ± 1.4 mV. Experiments demonstrated that PtPPy@T could react with hydrogen peroxide overexpressed in the tumor to generate a large amount of oxygen, which could relieve the tumor hypoxia microenvironment, and at the same time, provided a sufficient substrate for the subsequent PDT; using 658 nm laser irradiation, the photodynamic effect of PtPPy@T was activated, which catalyzed the conversion of oxygen to singlet oxygen, thus triggering oxidative damage and inducing apoptosis in tumor cells; experimental studies showed that the PtPPy@T nanomedicine had a better tumor inhibitory effect in vivo and in vitro. All animal experiments were approved by the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee of the Institute of Radiological Medicine, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College (IRM/2-IACUC-2312-006).

Objective:To observe the effects of high index of nutritional quality (INQ) enteral nutrition on clinical outcomes in elderly patients with acute heart failure. Methods:70 elderly patients with acute heart failure who had nutritional risk and needed nasal-feeding from the Department of Geriatrics of Hangzhou Ninth People's Hospital and the 903 Hospital of PLA Joint Support Force Hospital were randomly divided into observation group (n=35) and control group (n=35). Patients in the observation group was treated with high INQ enteral nutrition. After 4 weeks of intervention, the difference of energy and protein supply, parenteral nutrition use, nutrition index, cardiac function index and incidence of gastrointestinal adverse reaction were compared between the two groups. Results:After intervention, the energy and protein supply of nasal-feeding in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P<0.05) , and the amount of parenteral nutrition used in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group (P<0.05). The nutritional indexes and cardiac function indexes of the two groups were significantly improved compared with those before intervention, and the nutritional status of the patients in the observation group was improved more significantly (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of gastrointestinal adverse reactions between the two groups (P>0.05) . Conclusion:High INQ enteral nutrition can meet the nutritional requirements of elderly patients with heart failure, reduce the use of parenteral nutrition, improve the nutritional status, and promote the recovery of cardiac function.

This data article describes the"Typical Regional Activity Patterns"(TRAP)dataset,which is based on the Tackling Key Problems in Air Pollution Control Program.In order to explore the interaction between air pollution and physical activity,we collected activity patterns of 9,221 residents with different occupations and lifestyles for three consecutive days in typical regions(Jinan and Baoding)where air pollutant concentrations were higher than those in neighboring areas.The TRAP dataset consists of two aspects of information:demographic indicators(personal information,occupation,personal habits,and living situation)and physical activity pattern data(activity location and intensity);additionally,the exposure measures of physical activity patterns are included,which data users can match to various endpoints for their specific purpose.This dataset provides evidence for exploring the attributes of activity patterns of residents in northern China and for interdisciplinary researchers to develop strategies and measures for health education and health promotion.
