Tracheobronchial adenoid cystic carcinoma （TACC） is a low-grade malignant tumor originating from the airway mucosa. Despite its slow progression，it is characterized by high invasiveness，frequent recurrence，and a strong tendency for metastasis. Preclinical studies have shown that vascular-targeted therapy holds significant potential. However，an effective systemic treatment for TACC has not been established yet. This study explored TACC from the perspective of "Feiji" in traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） as the starting point. It deeply investigated the mechanisms of abnormal collaterals and tumor vascular recruitment and further elaborated on the theoretical connection between abnormal collaterals and tumor vascular recruitment. Firstly，collateral hyperactivity led to disordered and erratic pulmonary collaterals. Their abnormal structures were similar to the disorderly and tortuous nature of tumor （pseudo）angiogenesis. This resulted in imbalances in the functions of circulation，perfusion，and reverse injection of the pulmonary collaterals，and then led to unrestrained collateral dysfunction and the accumulation of pathogenic factors. Secondly，the remodeling of the extracellular matrix （ECM） and epithelial-mesenchymal transition （EMT） in TACC were critical processes in vascular co-option （VCO），representing the micro-level manifestation of the displacement of nutrient and defense. During this process，ECM remodeling made TACC cells more likely to hijack normal blood vessels，creating a complex vascular microenvironment conducive to tumor growth. In terms of treatment，this study proposed a TCM strategy of "regulating collaterals to expel pathogenic factors and nourishing collaterals to strengthen the healthy Qi"，and listed potential TCM. These were intended to regulate the Qi and blood in the collaterals，repair the functions of abnormal collaterals，and intervene in the vascular recruitment process of TACC. Future research should focus on improving the TCM clinical syndrome characteristics of TACC. Through modern molecular biology techniques，it is necessary to deeply analyze the micro-level pattern of vascular recruitment in TACC. This would enrich the understanding of the profound connection between abnormal collaterals and tumor vascular recruitment，providing empirical evidence for TCM-targeted therapies for vascular recruitment in TACC.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of aqueous extraction of Lonicerae Flos (SYHW) on anti-influenza A virus H1N1 (H1N1 virus) in vitro. METHODS:Using Madin-Darby canine kid ney (MDCK) cells cultured in vitro by H1N1 virus, half of the tissue culture infection dose(TCID50)was calculated. Culturing MDCK cells for 24 h with different mass concentrations of SYHW,the maximum non-toxic concentration was investigated. And then test was divided into normal cell group,virus control group,SYHW preventive administration group,therapeutic administration group and direct killing group (given SYHW of maxi-mum non-toxic concentration,infecting cells by 100 TCID50 H1N1 virus),and antiviral effective rate (ER) of SYHW was deter-mined. Test was divided into normal cell group,virus control group,SYHW therapeutic group and direct killing group (the same administration and infection as above),changes of cell proliferation index (PI) and cell apoptosis rate were respectively deter-mined. RESULTS:100 TCID50 of H1N1 virus was 1.26×10-7,and the maximum non-toxic concentration of SYHW on MDCK cells was 50 μg/mL(cell survival rate was 91.3%). ERs of preventive administration group,therapeutic administration group and direct killing group were 0,80.3% and 52.7%,respectively. Compared with normal cell group,PI value in virus control group was sig-nificantly reduced (P<0.05),early and late apoptotic rates were significantly increased (P<0.05). Compared with virus control group,PI value in directly killing group was significantly increased(P<0.05),and early apoptotic rate was significantly reduced (P<0.05);early apoptotic rates in therapeutic administration group were significantly reduced (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:SY-HW shows anti-H1N1 virus effect in vitro,therapeutic administration and directly killing are preferred in antiviral effect.

BACKGROUNDSteady-state bone marrow (SS-BM) and granulocyte colony-stimulating growth factor-primed BM/peripheral blood stem-cell (G-BM/G-PBSC) are the main stem-cell sources used in allogeneic hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation. Here, we evaluated the treatment effects of SS-BM and G-BM/G-PBSC in human leucocyte antigen (HLA)-identical sibling transplantation.

METHODSA total of 226 patients (acute myelogenous leukemia-complete remission 1, chronic myelogenous leukemia-chronic phase 1) received SS-BM, G-BM, or G-PBSC from an HLA-identical sibling. Clinical outcomes (graft-versus-host disease [GVHD], overall survival, transplant-related mortality [TRM], and leukemia-free survival [LFS]) were analyzed.

RESULTSWhen compared to SS-BM, G-BM gave faster recovery time to neutrophil or platelet (P < 0.05). Incidence of grade III-IV acute GVHD and extensive chronic GVHD (cGVHD) was lower than seen with SS-BM (P < 0.05) and similar to G-PBSC. Although the incidence of cGVHD in the G-BM group was similar to SS-BM, both were lower than G-PBSC (P < 0.05). G-BM and G-PBSC exhibited similar survival, LFS, and TRM, but were significantly different from SS-BM (P < 0.05). There were no significant differences in leukemia relapse rates among the groups (P > 0.05).

CONCLUSIONSG-CSF-primed bone marrow shared the advantages of G-PBSC and SS-BM. We conclude that G-BM is an excellent stem-cell source that may be preferable to G-PBSC or SS-BM in patients receiving HLA-identical sibling hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation.

Ultra-performance liquid chromatography coupled with quadrupole time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-Q-TOF/MS) was developed to identify the absorbed parent components and metabolites in rat bile, plasma and urine after oral administration of Radix Paeoniae Alba extract (RPAE). A total of 65 compounds were detected in rat bile, plasma and urine samples, including 11 parent compounds and 54 metabolites. The results indicated that glucuronidation, hydroxylation and methylation were the major metabolic pathways of the components of RPAE. Furthermore, the results of this work demonstrated that UPLC-Q-TOF/MS combined with MetaboLynx? software and mass defect filtering (MDF) could provide unique high throughput capabilities for drug metabolism study, with excellent MS mass accuracy and enhanced MSE data acquisition. With the MSE technique, both precursor and fragment mass spectra can be simultaneously acquired by alternating between high and low collision energy during a single chromatographic run.

Objective To explore the radiosensitivity ofβ-elemene on Colo320 cells transplanted tumor in nude mice and its molecular mechanisms.Methods Colo320 cells transplanted tumor model was established by cell suspension inoculation in nude mice.Then the transplanted mice with 0.8-1.0 cm3 tumor were randomly divided into 4 groups:control,β-elemene (40 mg/kg),radiation (4 Gy),andβ-elemene (40 mg/kg)+ radiation (4 Gy) groups,with four to five mice in each.Tumor weight and morphology were observed in each group.In addition,the apoptosis of tumor cells was measured by TUNEL and the expression of Fas gene was detected by immunohistochemistry.Results The nude mice transplanted tumor model was successfully established.Compared with that in control and simple radiation groups,tumor weight was significantly decreased inβ-elemene combined with irradiation group (P <0.05).At the same time,the apoptosis rate and the expression of Fas gene in tumor cells were significantly increased (P <0 .0 5 )inβ-elemene combined with irradiation group compared with control and simple radiation groups. Conclusion β-elemene could enhance the radiosensitivity of Colo320 cells transplanted tumor in nude mice probably by inducing Fas-mediated apoptosis of tumor cells.
