Objective To investigate the expression of Cyclin F in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC), its clinicopathological characteristics, and its effect on the biological behavior of renal cancer cell lines Methods RT-qPCR and Western blot were used to detect the mRNA and protein expression of Cyclin F in fresh ccRCC specimens. Immunohistochemistry assay was performed to detect the expression of Cyclin F protein in 80 paraffin samples. CCK-8 assay, scratch assay, and flow cytometry were conducted to determine the effects of Cyclin F overexpression on the proliferation, migration, and apoptosis of renal cancer cell lines. Results The expression of Cyclin F in cancer tissues was higher than that in adjacent tissues at the mRNA level (P<0.0285). The expression of Cyclin Fprotein in cancer tissues was lower than that in adjacent tissues (P<0.001). The analysis of clinicopathological parameters showed that the low expression of Cyclin F was correlated with WHO/ISUP grade, Ki67 index, and age (P=0.041, 0.047, 0.008,). In vitro experiments confirmed that overexpression of Cyclin F promoted the proliferation (P<0.001) and migratory ability (24 h P=0.003, 48 h P=0.0058) of the RCC 786-O cell line, while inhibiting apoptosis (P=0.0019). Conclusion The low expression of Cyclin F protein in ccRCC tissuesis associated with high ISUP grade, high Ki67 index, oldage, and prognosis of patients.

ObjectiveTo investigate the ameliorative effect of paeonol on acute alcohol-induced hepatic inflammation in mice via the regulation of the short-chain fatty acids （SCFAs）-specific receptor GPR43/mitogen-activated protein kinase （MAPK） signaling pathway. MethodsC57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into five groups： blank control group， model group， low-dose paeonol group （120 mg·kg^-1）， high-dose paeonol group （480 mg·kg^-1）， and silybin group （36.8 mg·kg^-1）. A mouse model of alcohol-induced liver disease （ALD） was established by ad libitum administration of a Lieber-DeCarli alcohol liquid diet. Serum lipid levels， liver function， inflammatory cytokines， and oxidative stress markers were measured. Liver hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining and Oil Red O staining were performed to validate successful modeling. Western blot analysis was used to assess the expression levels of zonula occludens-1 （ZO-1）， Claudin-1， and proteins related to the GPR43/MAPK signaling pathway in the colonic tissue. Immunohistochemistry was employed to detect the protein expression of GPR43， ZO-1， and Claudin-1 in the colon. Then 16S rDNA sequencing was performed to analyze differences in intestinal flora between the model group and the high-dose paeonol group. Additionally， fecal microbiota transplantation （FMT） experiments were conducted to validate the regulatory effect of paeonol on ALD via modulation of intestinal flora. ResultsCompared with the blank control group， the model group showed significantly elevated serum lipid levels， oxidative stress， and inflammatory cytokine expression （P<0.01）. Liver histology revealed increased inflammatory infiltration and lipid droplet accumulation. Colonic mucosal injury and impaired intestinal barrier function were observed. Levels of MAPK pathway-related proteins in the colonic tissue were upregulated （P<0.01）， while GPR43， ZO-1， and Claudin-1 protein expression levels were significantly decreased （P<0.01）. The composition and abundance of the intestinal flora were markedly altered， with a reduced Bacteroidetes-to-Firmicutes ratio and decreased relative abundances of Eubacterium， Parabacteroides， Erysipelothrix， and Adlercreutzia， alongside increased abundances of Clostridium butyricum， Enterococcus， and Helicobacter pylori in the model group. Compared with the model group， paeonol significantly reduced serum lipid levels， oxidative stress responses， and the expression of inflammatory cytokines in ALD mice （P<0.05， P<0.01）. It also attenuated hepatic lipid accumulation， restored intestinal barrier function， and repaired the structural integrity of liver and colonic tissues. The protein expression levels of ZO-1， Claudin-1， and GPR43 in the colonic tissue were significantly increased （P<0.05， P<0.01）， while those of MAPK pathway-related proteins were significantly decreased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The intestinal flora dysbiosis was effectively alleviated， rendering its composition closer to that of normal mice. The efficacy of paeonol in modulating ALD was further confirmed by FMT experiments， supporting its mechanistic involvement in the SCFAs-GPR43/MAPK signaling pathway. ConclusionPaeonol exerts a protective effect against ALD in mice， which may be mediated through regulation of the SCFAs-GPR43/MAPK signaling pathway， thereby achieving anti-inflammatory effects and improving intestinal barrier function.

ObjectiveTo investigate whether paeonol exerts a protective effect on mice with alcoholic liver injury by regulating the takeda G-protein-coupled receptor 5 （TGR5）/protein kinase A （PKA）/cAMP response binding element （CREB） signaling pathway mediated by Eubacterium. MethodC57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into five groups： normal group， model group， paeonol group （480 mg·kg^-1）， antibiotic group （Abs group）， and antibiotic + paeonol group. Lieber-DeCarli liquid was used to feed C57BL/6 mice on the second day of modeling for 10 days. The blood lipids， liver function， inflammatory factors， and oxidative stress levels in mice were measured. Hematoxylin-eosin staining （HE） and oil red O staining were used to observe the morphological changes and fat accumulation in liver tissue. 16S rDNA sequencing was used to detect the diversity of intestinal microbiota in the blank， model， and paeanol groups. Western blot was used to detect the effect of paeonol on the expression levels of protein related to the signaling pathway of atresia band protein 1 （ZO-1）， Claudin-1， and TGR5/PKA/CREB in mouse ileal tissue. ResultCompared with those in the blank group， the blood lipids， liver function， oxidative stress levels， and the expression of inflammatory factors in the model group increased （P<0.01）， and the liver fat vacuoles were obvious. The ileal mucosa was seriously damaged， and the protein contents of ZO-1， Claudin-1， and TGR5/PKA/CREB in the ileal tissue decreased significantly （P<0.01）. The intestinal microbiota changed， and the proteobacteria phylum increased significantly. The ratio of Bacteroidetes to Firmicutes decreased. The relative abundance of Dubosiella newyorkensis， Lactobacillus， Bifidobacterium， and other genera decreased， while the relative abundance of Escherichia-Shigella， Morganella， Providencia， and Proteus increased significantly. Compared with the model group， paeonol significantly reduced the blood lipids， liver function， oxidative stress levels， and expression of inflammatory factors in mice with alcohol diet-induced liver injury （P<0.05）， decreased liver fat vacuoles， improved and restored the ileal intestinal barrier， and restored the normal structure of hepatocytes and ileal cells. The intestinal microbiota disorder caused by alcohol was improved， and the relative abundance of beneficial bacteria such as Eubacterium spp. was increased. The protein expression levels of ZO-1， Claudin-1， and TGR5/PKA/CREB in ileal tissue were increased （P<0.05）. ConclusionPaeonol has a protective effect on alcoholic liver injury in mice， and the mechanism of action is achieved by regulating the Eubacterium-mediated TGR5/PKA/CREB signaling pathway to ensure anti-inflammatory effect and improve the intestinal barrier.

Objective To understand the factors that affect the pulmonary rehabilitation behavior of elderly patients with lung cancer during the post-operative transitional period,and provide reference bases for formulating the pulmonary rehabilitation plan of elderly patients with lung cancer during the transitional period and improving the compliance of pulmonary rehabilitation.Methods Based on the capability,opportunity,and motivation-behavior model(COM-B model),12 elderly lung cancer patients who underwent surgery at a tertiary A tumor hospital in Tianjin from March to July 2022 were selected for semi-structured interviews using descriptive research methods and purposive sampling method.The data were analyzed using directed content analysis.Results The ability factors(physical strength and postoperative discomfort symptoms of the elderly limit lung rehabilitation exercise,lack of pulmonary rehabilitation knowledge and awareness of the importance of exercise in lung rehabilitation knowledge),opportunity factors(lack of grassroots medical and health services,limiting lung rehabilitation exercise;family and friends are important resources for promoting lung rehabilitation exercise;medical support is a guarantee for promoting lung rehabilitation exercise),motivational factors(high self-efficacy in exercise is the foundation for lung rehabilitation exercise,perception of lung rehabilitation effects increases motivation for lung rehabilitation exercise)and 7 sub themes were extracted.Conclusion There are certain obstacles and promoting factors in the transitional lung rehabilitation process for elderly lung cancer patients after surgery.It is necessary to improve their postoperative discomfort symptoms,increase their knowledge of lung rehabilitation,enhance their awareness of lung rehabilitation,face the social support role of family,friends,and medical staff,improve the infrastructure and lung rehabilitation system,increase community lung rehabilitation support,provide multi-channel high-quality lung rehabilitation resources,and promote the development of smart medical services,constructing a transitional lung rehabilitation strategy for elderly patients with lung cancer.

Objective:To analyze the influencing factors of skull base reconstruction failure after endoscopic endonasal skull base surgery (EESBS).Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on 228 EESBS cases at the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University from 2018 to 2023. The clinical features associated with skull base reconstruction and postoperative cerebrospinal fluid leakage were collected and analyzed. Lasso regression was initially used for exploratory analysis, and risk factors for reconstruction failure were subsequently evaluated using multifactorial logistic regression.Results:A total of 157 cases of EESBS were included, with an overall reconstruction failure rate of 11.5% (18/157). No patients who underwent second-stage reconstruction with a tipped mucosal flap or multilayered free mucosal and fascial repair experienced further postoperative cerebrospinal fluid leakage. Variables identified through Lasso regression included history of surgery, history of radiotherapy, and site of leakage. Multifactorial logistic analysis showed that history of radiotherapy ( OR=5.96, P=0.021) and site of leakage in the posterior skull base ( OR=8.70, P=0.003) were significant risk factors for failure of skull base reconstruction. Conclusion:In cases with a history of radiotherapy and/or posterior skull base lesions in the operative area, reconstruction strategies should be strengthened to improve the success rate of one-stage repair, in particular, when intraoperative cerebrospinal fluid leakage occurs.

In recent years, the number of people living in short-term and long-term period in high-altitude has been continuously increasing, with over 81.6 million people living in areas with an altitude of ≥ 2, [KG*9]500 meters. In China, there are over 10 million people who frequently reside at high altitudes, and over 20 million people enter the plateau every year. The unique plateau climate has triggered a series of plateau related diseases, among which high altitude cerebral edema (HACE) is one of the most serious diseases. If patients are not treated promptly and appropriately, they may die from cerebral hernia within 24 hours. However, the exact mechanism of the development of HACE is not fully understood, which makes the clinical prevention and treatment of HACE challenging. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) and their exosomes (MSC-Exos) have the ability to repair damaged tissues and cells, resist oxidative stress, inhibit inflammatory reactions, and regulate autophagy, which may potentially become new drugs for preventing and treating HACE. This article elucidated the pathogenesis of high altitude brain edema and the potential roles of MSC and MSC-Exos based on relevant literatureat home and abroad, providing a theoretical basis for the prevention and treatment of HACE by MSC and MSC-Exos.

OBJECTIVE To explore the improvement mechanism of Modified sanhuang ointment on anal ulcers and swelling model rats. METHODS The anal ulcer model of the rat was induced by using glacial acetic acid； the effects of Modified sanhuang ointment low-dose， medium-dose and high-dose groups （185， 370， 740 mg/kg）， western medicine positive control group （Compound carraghenates cream， 1 g/kg） and TCM positive control group （Mayinglong shexiang zhichuang ointments， 1 g/kg） on body weight， area of anal ulcer， grade of anal ulcer were investigated. The other groups of rats were used to induce rectal swelling models with croton oil； the effects of Modified sanhuang ointment low-dose， medium-dose and high-dose groups （185， 370， 740 mg/kg）， western medicine positive control group （Compound carraghenates cream， 1 g/kg） and TCM positive control group （Mayinglong shexiang zhichuang ointments， 1 g/kg） on the rate of rectal and anal swelling， serum contents of inflammatory factors [interleukin 2 （IL-2）， IL-4， tumor necrosis factor （TNF-α）]， pathological morphology of rectal tissue， the expression of transient receptor potential channel V1 （TRPV1） and substance P in rectal tissue and rectal vascular permeability were investigated. RESULTS In Modified sanhuang ointment， the increase in body weight was enhanced， and the area of anal ulcers， as well as the grade of anal ulcers in rats with anal ulcer models， were reduced to varying degrees； rectal tissue damage in rectal swelling model rats was improved； the rate of rectal and anal swelling， the serum contents of inflammatory factors， the expressions of TRPV1 and substance P in rectal tissue， and rectal vascular permeability were all decreased （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. The effect of Modified sanhuang ointment was better than that of western medicine positive control and TCM positive control.Modified sanhuang ointment can improve anal ulcers and swelling in rats by reducing the release of inflammatory factors， inhibiting the expression of TRPV1 and substance P.
