A wealth of prior studies has confirmed that intratumoral microbiota can survive within tumor tissue, thereby promoting or inhibiting tumor growth. With the development of high-throughput sequencing and metabolomics, increasing attention has been paid to the correlation between intratumoral microbiota and host metabolism, and their effect on tumorigenesis and progression. This review focuses on the interaction between intratumoral microbiota and tumor metabolism. It emphasizes the effects of intratumoral microbiota on tumor sugar, lipid, and amino acid metabolism and explores emerging therapeutic strategies for guiding tumor prevention and treatment by modulating tumor metabolism. Although the specific role of intratumoral microbiota in tumor metabolism remains to be further studied, a deepened understanding of the interaction between tumor-specific microbiota and tumor metabolism may provide new directions and application prospects for tumor prevention and treatment.

Fluorescence anisotropy(FA)analysis has many advantages such as no requirement of separation,high throughput and real-time detection,and thus has been widely used in many fields,including biochemical analysis,food safety detection,environmental monitoring,etc.However,due to the small volume or mass of the target,its combination with the fluorescence probe cannot produce significant signal change.To solve this issue,researchers often use nanomaterials to enhance the mass or volume of fluorophore to improve the sensitivity.Nevertheless,this FA amplification strategy also has some disadvantages.Firstly,nanomaterials are easy to quench fluorescence.As a result,the FA value is easily influenced by light scattering,which reduces the detection accuracy.Secondly,fluorescent probes in most methods require complex modification steps.Therefore,it is necessary to develop new FA probes that do not require the amplification of volume and mass or modification.As a new kind of nanomaterials,luminescent metal-organic framework(MOF)has a large volume(or mass)and strong fluorescence emission.It does not require additional signal amplification materials.As a consequence,it can be used as a potential FA probe.This study successfully synthesized a lanthanide metal organic framework(Ce-TCPP MOF)using cerium ion(Ce3+)as the central ion and 5,10,15,20-tetra(4-carboxylphenyl)porphyrin(H2TCPP)as the ligand through microwave assisted method,and used it as a novel unmodified FA probe to detect phosphate ions(Pi).In the absence of Pi,Ce-TCPP MOF had a significant FA value(r).After addition of Pi,Pi reacted with Ce3+in MOF and destroyed the structure of MOF into the small pieces,resulting in a decrease in r.The experimental results indicated that with the increase of Pi concentration,the change of the r of Ce-TCPP MOF(Δr)gradually increased.The Δr and Pi concentration showed a good linear relationship within the range of 0.5-3.5 μmol/L(0.016-0.108 mg/L).The limit of detection(LOD,3σ/k)was 0.41 μmol/L.The concentration of Pi in the Jialing River water detected by this method was about 0.078 mg/L,and the Pi value detected by ammonium molybdate spectrophotometry was about 0.080 mg/L.The two detection results were consistent with each other,and the detection results also meet the ClassⅡwater quality standard,proving that this method could be used for the detection of Pi in complex water bodies.

Depression is a prevalent mental illness worldwide, its multifaceted pathogenesis is still in the exploratory stage. MicroRNA (miRNA), as a crucial epigenetic regulator, plays an important role in depression. miR-124 is one of the most abundant miRNAs in the central nervous system including neurons and microglia, and involved in various biological events like neuron development and differentiation, synaptic and axonal growth, neural plasticity, inflammation and autophagy. Recent studies have reported abnormal expression of miR-124 in both depression patients and animal models. Most of the studies showed that miR-124 is upregulated in the hippocampus or prefrontal cortex in stress-induced rodent depression animal models such as CUMS, CSDS, CORT, CRS and LH but some evidence for divergence. Upregulation of miR-124 expression may be involved in depression-like behavior via CREB/BDNF/TrkB pathway, GR pathway, SIRT1 pathway, apoptosis and autophagy pathways by directly targeting these genes including Creb, Bdnf, Sirt1, Nr3c1, Ezh2 and Stat3. The downregulation of miR-124 expression in neurons is mainly involved in the neurogenesis and neuroplasticity impairments in depression by targeting the Notch signaling pathway and DDIT4/TSC1/2/mTORC1 pathway. The downregulation of miR-124 expression also was found in the activated microglia in the stress-induced models, and resulted in neuroinflammation. In summary, the abnormal expression of miR-124 in the brain of depression-related models and its related mechanisms are complex and even contradictory, and still need further research. This review provides a summary of the research progress of miR-124 in depression.

Objective: To understand the prevalence of HIV testing and related factors among young students who had sex in Guangdong Province, in order to provide evidence for relevant education programs and HIV testing promotion in young students. Methods: From September to December 2022, a convenient sampling method was used to select 48 749 young students from 16 universities and mechanic colleges in 6 cities including Guangzhou, Shantou, Maoming, Huizhou, Dongguan, and Zhongshan in Guangdong Province for online questionnaire survey. A total of 2 971 students who ever had sexual experiences were screened out, and the HIV testing situation and related factors were investigated by using the questionnaire designed by AIDS Prevention and Education Project for College Students of China STD and AIDS Prevention Association.The influencing factors of HIV testing were analyzed using Chi square test and multiple Logistic regression model. Results: Among students who had sexual experiences, 11.92% (354/2 971) were tested for HIV. The results of multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that among young sexual students, using psychoactive substances during sexual activity in the last 1 year ( OR =7.70), having first sex with the same sex ( OR =3.87), having commercial sex ( OR =2.37), having heard of PEP ( OR =2.20), having a high level of self assessed understanding of HIV testing ( OR =1.73), inconsistent use of condoms ( OR =1.56), being aware of HIV infection ( OR =1.53), being aware of HIV knowledge ( OR =1.51) were more likely to test for HIV, and females ( OR =0.39) were less likely to test for HIV ( P < 0.05). Conclusions The proportion of HIV testing is low among sexually active young students in Guangdong Province. Targeted interventions should be tailored to promote HIV testing coverage.

Objective To explore the quantitative evaluation of integrity risk prevention and control in public hospitals,provide reference for improving the quality and efficiency of integrity risk prevention and control.Methods Self-designed"Inspection Standards for Integrity Risk Prevention and Control of Power Matters in Public Hospitals"was used to score and rate the power matters provided by each functional department/clinical department of West China Hospital of Sichuan University from three aspects:the clarity of power operation process,the accuracy of finding integrity risk points,the effectiveness of prevention and control measures.Results A total of 236 power matters of the hospital were inspected for integrity risk prevention and control,and according to the inspection criteria,57 items were rated as first grade,103 items were rated as second grade,and 76 items were rated as third grade,accounting for 24.15％,43.64％and 32.20％,respectively.The score for the special work of integrity risk prevention and control was 5.82±1.92 points,of which the process dimension score was 2.11±0.75 points,the risk points dimension score was 1.89±0.92 points,the prevention and control dimension score is 1.89± 0.79 points,which reflects the problems of unclear workflow,inaccurate finding of individual risk points,and unspecified prevention and control measures in some units.Conclusion Hospitals should focus on the concreteness,accuracy,salience and quantification in the long-term construction of integrity risk prevention and control from the aspects of thought,behavior,effectiveness and evaluation.

Objective:To explore high-risk sexual behaviors of HIV/AIDS and related factors in young students in Guangzhou.Methods:A cross-sectional survey was conducted in 5 different types of Guangzhou colleges by convenience sampling with minimum number of classes per grade and 600 samples per school from September to November 2021. The R 4.2.2 software was used to consolidate databases. Simultaneously, a logistic regression model and a decision tree algorithm model, stratifying by whether sexual behaviors had occurred before, were constructed. In each layer, the prediction performance of the two models was evaluated through area under receiver operating characteristic and the confusion matrix, and then the model with high prediction performance was retained.Results:A total of 7 346 students were surveyed. The proportion of the respondents reporting sexual experience were 9.08% (667/7 346), in whom 26.24% (175/667) had risky sexual activity in the past year. The decision tree algorithm model performs well in predicting whether high-risk sexual behaviors have occurred in the past year. When the complexity parameter value is 0.018, and nsplit reaches 4, which means there are 5 leaf nodes in the model, the cross error of the tree will be the smallest. The first best grouping variable in the decision tree was whether to use condoms throughout the first sexual behavior. If condoms were used at their sexual debut, but homosexual practices have occurred in the past year, the probability of risky sexual behavior will increase. If homosexual practices have not occurred in the past year, but the age of sexual debut was below 18 years old while the period of HIV education was after high school, the probability of risk sexual behavior will also increase.Conclusions:AIDS-related risky behaviors of young students still deserved attention. The experience of sexual debut and whether AIDS-related health education has been received before the sexual debut were significant predictors for the occurrence of high-risk sexual behavior. The decision tree algorithm model has particular applicability for predicting and screening potential risk populations.

ObjectiveHemoglobin is the iron-containing protein in the red blood cells of many animals. The primary function of hemoglobin is to transport oxygen from lung to tissues. It is composed of two identicalα‑globin subunits and two identical β‑globin subunits. Hemoglobin has unique magnetic properties. The paramagnetism of deoxyhemoglobin, and the diamagnetism of oxyhemoglobin and carboxyhaemoglobin have been reported previously. Studies have also shown that external magnetic field affected blood flow rate, but whether magnetic field may affect the oxygenation rate of hemoglobin remains unknown. Here in this study, we are aiming to address this question with recombinant hemoglobin. Human hemoglobin and yak hemoglobin were selected as the research objects, and a recombinant protein expression and purification system was established to explore the magnetic field effects on the oxygenation rate of hemoglobin, as well as the differences in the oxygenation rate between human hemoglobin and yak hemoglobin under external magnetic field. MethodsThe recombinant expression and purification system of human and yak hemoglobin was established. The recombinant hemoglobin expression was further optimized and appropriated inducing temperature and IPTG concentration were screened. Recombinant human hemoglobin and yak hemoglobin were purified to homogeneity by affinity chromatography and further by size-exclusion chromatography. SDS-PAGE was used to validate the purification, and UV-Vis spectrum and EPR were used to characterize the biochemical properties of recombinant hemoglobin. Deoxyhemoglobin of human and yak were placed under 0.3 T external magnetic field to test the magnetic field effects on oxygenation rate, and geomagnetic field condition was used as a sham control. The UV-Vis spectrum data were measured every 10 min, and the concentration and proportion of oxygenated hemoglobin, deoxyhemoglobin and methemoglobin were calculated to analyze the effects of magnetic field on the oxygenation rate of hemoglobin. The magnetic properties of human oxygenated hemoglobin and human deoxygenated hemoglobin have been measured by SQUID, a superconducting quantum interference magnetic measurement system. Three biological replications were performed for each experiment. The possible mechanism of the effect of magnetic field on the oxygenation rate of hemoglobin has been investigated and discussed. ResultsHuman and yak hemoglobin were successfully expressed and purified by E.coli prokaryotic expression system. The optimal expression temperature was 30℃, and the most suitable IPTG concentration was 1 mmol/L. EPR results suggested that trace amount of methemoglobin existed both in the purified human hemoglobin and yak hemoglobin proteins. The oxygenation rate of yak hemoglobin appeared to be faster than that of human hemoglobin, and the additional magnetic field treatment significantly increased the oxygenation rate of both human and yak hemoglobin, and yak hemoglobin was more sensitive to magnetic field than human hemoglobin. The paramagnetism of deoxyhemoglobin was verified by SQUID measurement. However, the diamagnetism of oxygenated hemoglobin remains uncertain, probably due to the presence of trace amount of methemoglobin in the sample of oxygenated hemoglobin, which was consistent with EPR results. ConclusionIn this study, human and yak hemoglobin were successfully expressed and purified. The purified hemoglobin proteins have similar function and conformational states as native protein. External static magnetic field facilitates hemoglobin oxygenation, and yak hemoglobin seems more sensitive to magnetic field compared with human hemoglobin. These findings provide theoretical basis for the potential applications of applying magnetic field to improve hypoxia symptoms in clinical practice in the future.

Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) diseases are common clinical conditions. The number of patients with TMJ diseases is large, and the etiology, epidemiology, disease spectrum, and treatment of the disease remain controversial and unknown. To understand and master the current situation of the occurrence, development and prevention of TMJ diseases, as well as to identify the patterns in etiology, incidence, drug sensitivity, and prognosis is crucial for alleviating patients′suffering.This will facilitate in-depth medical research, effective disease prevention measures, and the formulation of corresponding health policies. Cohort construction and research has an irreplaceable role in precise disease prevention and significant improvement in diagnosis and treatment levels. Large-scale cohort studies are needed to explore the relationship between potential risk factors and outcomes of TMJ diseases, and to observe disease prognoses through long-term follw-ups. The consensus aims to establish a standard conceptual frame work for a cohort study on patients with TMJ disease while providing ideas for cohort data standards to this condition. TMJ disease cohort data consists of both common data standards applicable to all specific disease cohorts as well as disease-specific data standards. Common data were available for each specific disease cohort. By integrating different cohort research resources, standard problems or study variables can be unified. Long-term follow-up can be performed using consistent definitions and criteria across different projects for better core data collection. It is hoped that this consensus will be facilitate the development cohort studies of TMJ diseases.
