Objective To analyze the main active components and potential molecular mechanism of Sophora flavescens against breast cancer based on network pharmacology and molecular docking. Methods The chemical constituents were collected and screened by TCMSP, ETCM database and literature review. The targets of active ingredients were predicted by Swiss Target Prediction database. Breast cancer-related targets were collected by GeneCards, TTD, Drugbank and OMIM. The anti-breast cancer targets of Sophora flavescens were screened by Venny 2.1.0 software. Cytoscape software was used to construct the network diagram of Sophora flavescens-key active ingredients-targets. STRING database was used to analyze the common targets, and PPI network diagram was constructed. GO function enrichment analysis and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis of key target proteins were performed by DAVID database and Hiplot online platform. Schrodinger software was used to calculate the molecular docking between the active ingredients and targets. Molecular biological methods were used to verify the key targets. Results A total of 36 active components with clear structures were screened from Sophora flavescens. 70 anti-breast cancer targets of Sophora flavescens were screened out. 12 core targets including EGFR, AKT1, ESR1, SRC, CYP19A1, AR and ABCB1 participate in endocrine resistance, EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors and estrogen signaling pathways in breast cancer. Moreover, the docking score between the core component and the key target AR is the highest. In vitro experiments showed that the extract of Sophora flavescens can inhibit the proliferation of breast cancer cells, induce cell apoptosis and up-regulate AR protein expression. Conclusion It was revealed that Sophora flavescens plays an anti-breast cancer role by regulating complex biological processes through multiple components acting on multiple targets and signaling pathways. The upregulation of AR protein by Sophora flavescens may become a new therapeutic strategy for the treatment of breast cancer.

Background::Understanding the characteristics of newly diagnosed primary human deficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) infection in the context of the post-antiretroviral therapy era and HIV drug prophylaxis is essential for achieving the new target of 95-95-95-95 by 2025. This study reported the characteristics of newly diagnosed primary HIV-1 infection in Shenzhen.Methods::This is a real-world retrospective study. Eighty-seven newly diagnosed primary HIV-1-infected patients were recruited from January 2021 to March 2022 at the Third People’s Hospital of Shenzhen. Demographic, epidemiological, diagnostic, drug resistance, and medical data were described and analyzed.Results::Overall, 96.6% (84/87) of the newly identified primary HIV-1-infected patients were male, including 88.5% (77/87) men have sex with men (MSM), with a median age of 29.0 years (Q 1-Q 3: 24.0-34.0 years); of these, 85.1% (74/87) reported high-risk sexual behaviors with casual partners. The rate of condom usage was only 28.7% (25/87). The overall rate of pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) and post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) was 8.0% (7/87, including 4 PrEP and 3 PEP cases) around the potential exposure, although 41.4% of the patients had prior awareness of such interventions. Moreover, only 19.5% (17/87) had previously used PrEP or PEP. Of those, 58.8% (10/17) of the patients obtained drugs from the internet, and only 35.3% (6/17) reported good compliance. A total of 54.0% (47/87) of subjects were diagnosed by the HIV nucleic acid test. Acute retroviral syndrome appeared in 54.0% (47/87) of patients. The prevalence of transmitted drug resistance (TDR) mutation was 33.9% (19/56), including 6 (10.7%) against nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI) plus non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI), 8 (14.3%) against NNRTI, and 5 (8.9%) against protease inhibitor (PI) only. Conclusions::Owing to the low utilization rate and incorrect usage of PrEP and PEP, massive efforts are needed to promote HIV-preventive strategies in the MSM population. The extremely high prevalence of TDR mutation in this population implies the need for future pretreatment drug resistance surveillance.

Objective:To observe the changes in bone mineral density and microstructure parameters in sclerostin (SOST) gene knockout (SOST -/-) mice after ovariectomy. Methods:Twelve 4-week-old SOST knockout mice were randomly divided into two groups ( n=6): ovariectomized group (SOV), sham operated group (SSO). Twelve wild-type mice were randomly divided into two groups ( n=6): wild-type ovariectomized group (WTO), wild-type sham operated group (WTS). Twelve weeks later, mice were sacrificed and one lumbar vertebra of each mouse was selected for micro-CT analysis. The bone mineral density, trabecular volume fraction, trabecular number and trabecular thickness were observed and compared in the 4 groups. Results:There was no difference in bone mineral density, trabecular volume fraction, trabecular number and trabecular thickness between SOV and SSO groups. Bone mineral density, trabecular volume fraction, trabecular number and trabecular thickness in SOV and SSO groups were significantly higher than those in WTO and WTS groups ( P<0.001). Bone mineral density, trabecular volume fraction and trabecular number in WTO group were significantly lower than those in WTS group ( P=0.017, 0.039, 0.021, respectively). There was no difference in trabecular thickness between WTO and WTS groups. Conclusions:Sclerostin knockout mice showed high bone mass, and ovariectomy did not lead to bone loss and bone microstructure degeneration, which indicates that slerostin is a potential therapeutic target for postmenopausal osteoporosis.

Objective To explore the localization and guidance value of infraorbital/maxillary nerve in endoscopic transmaxillary approach, and to provide anatomical data for clinical operation. Methods The eight adult cadaver heads were dissected by means of the endoscopic transmaxillary approach to expose the infraorbital/maxillary nerve, and relevant data were collected. Results In 8 cases, 16 maxillary nerves arose from the trigeminal ganglion of the trigeminal nerve and emerged from the foramen rotundum, transited to the infraorbital nerve at the infraorbital fissure, then traveled in the infraorbital canal and out of the infraorbital foramen. The infraorbital/maxillary nerve could be divided into four segments according to the foramen rotundum, infraorbital groove and infraorbital foramen: the terminal segment, the infraorbital nerve and its terminal branches to the face, distal to the infraorbital foramen; the orbitomaxillary segment and the orbitomaxillary segment of the infraorbital nerve within the infraorbital canal from the infraorbital foramen along the infraorbital groove (length 11.7 ±2.5 mm ), which was readily identified in the roof of the maxillary sinus in all specimens. The pterygopalatine segment, the pterygopalatine segment within the pterygopalatine fossa, which started at the infraorbital groove to the foramen rotundum (length 13.4±2.1 mm); The intracranial segment, the intracranial segment from the foramen rotundum to the trigeminal ganglion(length 15.2±3.9 mm). Conclusion The infraorbital nerve can serve as a anatomical landmark for endoscopic transmaxillary approach to get access to infratemporal fossa, pterygopalatine fossa, trigeminal ganglion and lateral wall of the cavernous sinus.
