Ulcerative colitis （UC）， a chronic， non-specific inflammatory bowel disease with typical symptoms such as abdominal pain， diarrhea， and bloody stools， demonstrates a high relapse rate and difficulty in curing. Sishenwan， first recorded in Internal Medicine Abstract （Nei Ke Zhai Yao）， are a classic prescription for treating diarrhea caused by deficiency of the spleen and kidney Yang. The core therapeutic principle of Sishenwan is warming and tonifying the spleen and kidney， and astringing the intestine and stopping diarrhea. In recent years， Sishenwan have demonstrated distinct advantages in the clinical treatment of UC. The pathogenesis of UC involves multiple factors， including immune dysregulation and gut microbiota imbalance. Although Western medicine is effective in the short term， its side effects， high relapse rate， and resistance associated with long-term use pose substantial challenges. Sishenwan have shown excellent clinical outcomes in the treatment of UC due to deficiency of the spleen and kidney Yang. Modern clinical studies indicate that Sishenwan， used alone or in combination with Western medicine or other Chinese medicine compound prescriptions， significantly improve the clinical efficacy in treating UC due to deficiency of the spleen and kidney Yang. Sishenwan effectively alleviate core symptoms such as mucus， pus， and blood in stools， and persistent abdominal pain， reduce Mayo scores and the relapse rate， and improve patients' quality of life. Research on the material basis reveals that Sishenwan contain multiple active ingredients such as psoralen， isopsoralen， and evodiamine. Mechanism studies indicate that Sishenwan inhibit the inflammatory cascade reactions by regulating the signal network through multiple targets. Sishenwan regulate cellular immunity and restore intestinal immune homeostasis. At the microecological level， Sishenwan promote the intestinal barrier repair through the "microbiota-metabolism-immunity" axis. The current research still needs to be deepened in aspects such as the mining of specific biomarkers for syndromes and the exploration of the collaborative mechanism of traditional Chinese and Western medicine. In the future， a full-chain system covering syndrome differentiation， targeting， and monitoring needs to be constructed for promoting the paradigm transformation of Sishenwan into precision drugs. This review systematically explains the treatment mechanism of Sishenwan regarding the combination of disease and syndrome and its multi-target regulatory characteristics， providing a theoretical basis and transformation direction for the treatment of UC with integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine.

Objective To investigate the protective effect and mechanism of Chaihuang Qingyi Huoxue Granules on pancreatic tissue of rats with severe acute pancreatitis,and to observe its regulation on NLRP3 inflammasome activation.Methods Sixty-four SD rats were randomly divided into sham-surgery(SO)group,severe acute pancreatitis model(SAP)group,Chaihuang Qingyi Huoxue Granules(CH)group,and MCC950(NLRP3 inhibitor)group.Each group was further divided into 12-hour and 24-hour subgroups,with rats in each group.The SAP group,CH group,and MCC950 group were retrogradely injected with 3.5%sodium taurocholate(2 mL·kg-1)into the pancreatic ducts to establish SAP model.The MCC950 group was immediately intraperitoneally injected with MCC950(1 mg·mL-1)after model preparation.After awakening from anesthesia,the CH group was administrated by gavage with Chaihuang Qingyi Huoxue Granules solution(0.35 g·mL-1)once every 6 hours.Ascites,abdominal aortic blood,and pancreatic tissue were collected at 12 hours and 24 hours after SAP model construction.The serum amylase and lipase activities were detected using an automated biochemical analyzer.HE staining was used to observe pancreatic injury.Serum levels of IL-18 and IL-1β were detected by ELISA.The expressions of gene and proteins related to the activation of NLRP3 inflammasome were analyzed by IHC,qRT-PCR and Western Blot.Results Compared with the SAP group,the pathological damage of pancreatic tissues in the CH and MCC950 groups was significantly reduced,and the pathological score was significantly reduced(P＜0.05).The levels of serum lipase,amylase,IL-18,and IL-1β were also significantly decreased(P＜0.05).After treatment with Chaihuang Qingyi Huoxue Granules or intraperitoneal injection of NLRP3 inhibitor,the positive expressions of NLRP3,ASC and Caspase-1 in pancreatic tissues,as well as the mRNA levels of NLRP3,ASC and Caspase-1,the protein levels of NLRP3,ASC,Pro-Caspase-1 and Caspase-1 were significantly reduced compared to the SAP group(P＜0.05).Conclusion Chaihuang Qingyi Huoxue Granules can inhibit the activation of NLRP3 inflammasome,reduce the mRNA and protein expressions of NLRP3,ASC and Caspase-1 in pancreatic tissues,and suppress the release of the downstream inflammatory factors IL-18 and IL-1β and alleviate pancreatitis damage in SAP model rats.

Background In the Global Burden of Disease research, it has been found that atmospheric fine particulate matter (PM_2.5) pollution significantly harms human health. Currently, there is limited research on polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans (PCDD/Fs) that exhibit high toxicity effects in PM_2.5 . Objective By studying the spatiotemporal distribution and variation characteristics of PCDD/Fs in PM_2.5 in Pudong area of Shanghai, to assess the associated population health risk. Methods This study set up 28 sampling points in Pudong area. One sample of PM_2.5 was collected during winter (February 2022) and summer (July 2022) at each site, with a sampling period lasting 24 h. The concentration of PM_2.5 was measured by membrane filter method, and the content of 17 kinds of 2,3,7,8-substituted chlorinated PCDD/Fs in the samples was analyzed using isotope dilution. Seasonal variations (winter and summer) in the concentrations of PM_2.5 and PCDD/Fs were evaluated, sources of PCDD/Fs pollution were tracing by principal component analysis, and health risks to the population from respiratory exposure to PCDD/Fs were estimated by VLIER-HUMAAN model. Results The PM_2.5 concentrations in the 28 samples ranged from 10 to 126 μg·m⁻³, while the concentrations of PCDD/Fs in PM_2.5 ranged from 58 to 2625 fg·m⁻³. The concentration of PM_2.5 during winter (11-126 μg·m⁻³) was higher than that during summer (10-60 μg·m⁻³). The concentration range of PCDD/Fs in winter was from 58 to 2625 fg·m⁻³, which corresponded to a range of toxic equivalent quantity (WHO-TEQ) concentration from 2.99 to 40.97 fg·m⁻³ when taking World Health Organization's toxic equivalency factor (WHO-TEQ); the concentration range of PCDD/Fs in summer was from 72 to 446 fg·m⁻³, which corresponded to a range of WHO-TEQ concentration from 2.66 to 16.61 fg·m⁻³. This range in summer was significantly lower than that observed in winter. The results of principal component analysis revealed that waste incineration was the primary source of PCDD/Fs in winter PM_2.5 in the area, whereas traffic emissions emerged as the main source in summer. The assessment of Pudong residents' respiratory exposure to PCDD/Fs in PM_2.5 showed significantly higher exposure of children in summer and winter than that of adults, indicating higher susceptibility of children to air pollutants. Both the hazard ratios (HR) for children and adults were below 1, while the cancer risks (CR) ranged from 8.41×10⁻⁸ to 2.35×10⁻⁶. Notably, during winter, the CR at 4 locations slightly exceeds 1×10⁻⁶, indicating a potential carcinogenic risk. Conclusion The overall pollution level of PCDD/Fs in PM_2.5 in Pudong area is relatively low, but it shows clear seasonal patterns. Waste incineration and traffic are the main sources of PCDD/Fs in PM_2.5 in the area. Although the cancer risk of exposure to PCDD/Fs in PM_2.5 for children or adults is relatively low, there is a certain risk at some locations in winter, necessitating additional monitoring and control.

Objective To investigate the effects of calcium and integrin-binding protein 1(CIB1)on the cell proliferation,invasion,apoptosis,and migration of triple-negative breast cancer cells and its possible mechanism.Methods MDA-MB-231 and MDA-MB-468 cells were divided into CIB1-knockdown(infected with CRISPR/Cas9 lentivirus)and negative-control groups.Cell Counting Kit-8(CCK-8)and 5-ethynyl-2′-deoxyuridine(EdU)assays were performed to detect cell proliferation.Cell apoptosis was determined through flow cytometry.Scratch and Transwell experiments were conducted to measure the migration and invasion abilities of cells.The mRNA and protein expression levels of β-catenin,adenomatous polyposis coli(APC),glycogen synthase kinase 3β(GSK-3β),and c-myc were detected via real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction and Western blot.Results Compared with the negative-control group,the CIB1-knockdown group showed decreased cell proliferation,invasion,and migration(P<0.05)and increased cell apoptosis(P<0.05).The mRNA and protein expressions of β-catenin,APC,and c-myc decreased(P<0.05),and that of GSK-3β increased(P<0.05).Conclusion CIB1 knockdown can inhibit cell proliferation,invasion,and migration and promote the apoptosis of breast cancer cells.Its mechanism may be related to the inhibition of Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

Since the approval of gemtuzumab ozogamicin,an antibody-drug conjugate(ADC)targeting CD33 in 2000,13 ADC drugs have been approved by the FDA.Although these drugs have clearly improved the survival of patients with various types of advanced cancers,their significant toxicity has compromised their therapeutic benefits.The adverse reactions of ADC drugs are complex and include on-target and off-target toxicities,where the payload drug is a determining factor.Antibody and linker may also affect the degree of toxicity.Combination therapy becomes an important strategy in anticancer treatment because of its increased efficiency,but treatment-related adverse reactions also increase accordingly.This review comprehensively analyzes the toxicity mechanisms of current ADC drugs and proposes various optimization strategies,including but not limited to optimizing linker molecules,upgrading antibody design,and changing drug administration strategies,to improve the overall safety profile of ADC drugs.

Objectives:To investigate the expression levels of autophagy-related genes Beclin1 and LC3 in ossified tissues of posterior longitudinal ligament in cervical spine and their correlations with osteogenic factors.Methods:18 posterior longitudinal ligament tissue specimens from cervical ossification of posterior longitudinal ligament(OPLL)patients underwent OPLL surgical removal from October 2020 to May 2021(OPLL group)and 15 tissue specimens of the posterior longitudinal ligament of the cervical spine that were not ossified(non-OPLL group)were collected.The morphological changes of posterior longitudinal ligament tissues were observed by hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining;the deposition of calcium salts was observed by Von Kossa staining;The mRNA and protein expression levels of Beclin1,microtubule associated protein light chain 3(LC3),and the osteogenic factors runt-related transcription factor 2(RUNX2),bone morphogenetic protein-2(BMP2),and Osterix in the specimens of the two groups were determined with immunohistochemical staining and RT-qPCR respectively;Pearson correlation analysis was used to explore the relationship between Beclin1,LC3,RUNX2,BMP2,and Osterix.Results:Compared with the non-OPLL group,the cell morphology in the OPLL group was larger and irregular in shape,and the nuclei were more obvious;Von Kossa staining showed that there was no obvious calcium salt deposition in the non-OPLL group,whereas brownish-black calcium salts could be seen in the OPLL group,which were aggregated into flakes or clusters;The expression levels of Beclin1,LC3,RUNX2,BMP2 and Osterix proteins and mRNA in the OPLL group were higher than those in the non-OPLL group(P＜0.05);Beclin1 mRNA expression level was significantly correlated with BMP2,RUNX2 and Osterix(P＜0.05,r＞0.5),while LC3 was not correlated with osteogenic factors.Conclusions:The autophagy-related genes Beclin1 and LC3 are significantly overexpressed in ossified tissues of posterior logitudinal ligament of cervical spine,and Beclin1 is closely related to posterior longitudinal ligament osteogenesis.
