International registration of herbal drugs is a necessary prerequisite for the internationalization of Chinese materia medica. North America and European Union occupy an important position in the world herbal drugs market, and their drug administration and quality supervision requirements are relatively complete and progressiveness. By summarizing the definition of herbal drugs in North America and European Union, combing and interpreting the relevant laws, regulations and policy documents, this article constructed the registration path of herbal drugs, and discussed the current status of market registration of herbal drugs in North America and European Union based on the examples of successful marketing of herbal drugs under current application and approval in overseas markets. This article believed that in the future, an internationally matched TCM quality standard evidence system should be built, clinical trials of TCM products in line with international standards should be carried out, standards that are the same or higher than international mainstream GMP should be developed, the registration path of TCM compounds should be explored, and professionals to establish an international registration application team should be recruited to provide theoretical and practical support for China's overseas registration of Chinese TCM products, promote TCM products to enter the world mainstream market, and achieve high-quality development of TCM internationalization.

Objective To investigate the role of miRNAs in maternal amniotic fluid exosomes in development of isolated ventriculomegaly(VM)in fetuses.Methods Amniotic fluid samples were collected from 9 cases of moderate isolated VM and 8 normal control cases to extract exosomal miRNA,and miRNA sequencing technique was used to identify differentially expressed miRNAs between the two groups.Three miRNAs with significant differential expression between the two groups,whose high expression was associated with VM,were selected for verification with RT-qPCR.Dual luciferase reporter assays were used to verify the regulatory effect of miR-122-5p on its predicted target genes AKT3 and CCDC88C.Gene ontology(GO)and KEGG pathway analyses were performed to explore the possible roles of the top 40 significant differential miRNAs in the pathophysiology of VM.Results We identified a total of 272 differentially expressed miRNAs in VM cases,including 43 up-regulated and 229 down-regulated miRNAs.The target genes of these differential miRNAs were associated with DNA and transcription factor binding,transmembrane transporter and nucleic acid binding transcription factor activity,and cell developmental process.These miRNAs were mostly enriched in the MAPK,cGMP-PKG and Wnt signaling pathways.Verification with RT-qPCR showed that miR-122-5p expression level was significantly lower in VM group than in the control group(P<0.05),which was consistent with miRNA sequencing results;let-7b-5p expression level was significantly lower in VM group,which was contrary to miRNA sequencing result.Dual luciferase reporter assays showed that miR-122-5p was not capable of regulating AKT3 or CCDC88C expressions.Conclusions The highly abundant differentially expressed miRNAs in maternal amniotic fluid exosomes play important roles in the occurrence of fetal VM possibly by regulating the MAPK,PI3K-Akt,Wnt and cGMP-PKG signaling pathways.

Objective To explore the ideas,methods and pathways for the registration of Chinese medicine prescriptions in overseas countries,to form a strategy for overseas registration of Chinese medicine,and to provide technical support and reference for China's Chinese medicine prescriptions to go abroad.Methods Five representative countries were selected to form corresponding expert teams and exchange platforms for international cooperation.The laws,regulations,rules,standards,specifications and technical guidance documents related to Chinese medicine prescription preparations of the target countries were used as pathway research materials,and the documents were translated directly,naturalized,proofread and diagrammed,and a problem-oriented mechanism for consultation with domestic and international experts was established to form a pathway for overseas registration of Chinese medicine prescription preparations.Results The path for standardization of overseas registration of Chinese medicines was clarified,and the detailed registration paths and corresponding work strategies of Chinese medicines in five countries were formulated with flow charts,tables and explanatory texts.Conclusion By developing standardized registration pathways for traditional Chinese medicine in target countries,reference can be provided for the internationalization of Chinese herbal formula preparations.

Tripterygium glycosides tablet(TGT),the classical commercial drug of Tripterygium wilfordii Hook.F.has been effectively used in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis,nephrotic syndrome,leprosy,Behcet's syndrome,leprosy reaction and autoimmune hepatitis.However,due to its narrow and limited treatment window,TGT-induced organ toxicity(among which liver injury accounts for about 40％of clinical reports)has gained increasing attention.The present study aimed to clarify the cellular and molecular events underlying TGT-induced acute liver injury using single-cell RNA sequencing(scRNA-seq)technology.The TGT-induced acute liver injury mouse model was constructed through short-term TGT exposure and further verified by hematoxylin-eosin staining and liver function-related serum indicators,including alanine aminotransferase,aspartate aminotransferase,alkaline phosphatase and total bilirubin.Using the mouse model,we identified 15 specific subtypes of cells in the liver tissue,including endothelial cells,hepatocytes,cholangiocytes,and hepatic stellate cells.Further analysis indicated that TGT caused a significant inflammatory response in liver endothelial cells at different spatial locations;led to marked inflammatory response,apoptosis and fatty acid metabolism dysfunction in hepatocytes;activated he-patic stellate cells;brought about the activation,inflammation,and phagocytosis of liver capsular macrophages cells;resulted in immune dysfunction of liver lymphocytes;disturbed the intercellular crosstalk in liver microenvironment by regulating various signaling pathways.Thus,these findings elaborate the mechanism underlying TGT-induced acute liver injury,provide new insights into the safe and rational applications in the clinic,and complement the identification of new biomarkers and ther-apeutic targets for liver protection.

OBJECTIVE: To observe the clinical effect of platelet rich plasma (PRP) combined with β tricalcium phosphate bioceramic bone in the treatment of non traumatic necrosis of the femoral head in ARCO stageⅡ. METHODS: From January 2017 to December 2018, 100 patients (160 hips) with ARCO stageⅡnon traumatic necrosis of the femoral head were divided into PRP group and control group. In PRP group, 50 patients (80 hips), 22 males and 28 females, aged from 18 to 65 (43.47± 7.23) years, with a course of 4 to 18 (15.8±2.9) months, underwent core decompression and bone grafting combined with PRP implantation. There were 50 cases (80 hips) in the control group, including 27 males and 23 females, aged 20 to 63 (45.72± 7.43) years, and the course of disease was 6 to 19 (14.9±3.8) months. Hip X-ay film was followed up after operation. Harris score and VAS score were used to evaluate the curative effect, and the survival rate of hip joint was recorded. RESULTS: All patients had good wound healing, no infection, thrombosis and other complications. All patients were followed up for 12 to 14 (12.0±0.4) months. Twelve months after operation, the image expression of PRP group was better than that of control group( CONCLUSION Platelet-rich plasma(PRP) combined with artificialbone for core decompression and bone grafting can change the situation of simple artificial bone implantation and uncertain curative effect, improve the success rate of this operation, effectively reduce the collapse rate of femoral head necrosis in the early and middle stage, delay or even avoid hip replacement.

Objective: To study the main factors that influencing Pneumoconiosis patients' healthcare seeking behaviors. Methods: Conducting a descriptive analysis to analyze the relationship between the annual hospitalization rate and social security status (medical insurance, location of medical insurance, proportion of insurance used for reimbursement of pneumoconiosis, whether there is employment injury insurance at work, whether to apply for compensation after diagnosing pneumoconiosis, whether they receive social assistance and a minimum allowance) , social relationship status of patients (whether there is pneumoconiosis in the family or relatives, whether there is a pneumoconiosis in a friend or a colleague, and whether or not he/she has received financial assistance) , life quality of patients (subjective feelings) and living standard of patients (dietary level) based on data acquired from 120 pneumoconiosis patients. Results: The results of single factor analysis reveal that the location of medical insurance, the proportion of insurance for reimbursement of pneumoconiosis, whether there is employment injury insurance at work, whether to apply for compensation after diagnosing pneumoconiosis are statistically significant in pneumoconiosis patients' hospital utilization ratio (P<0.05) . The place where medical insurance is located is the current place of residence, the reimbursement ratio of medical insurance for pneumoconiosis is listed as 50%-70%, the work unit has medical insurance, those who have not applied for compensation for pneumoconiosis have a higher utilization rate of hospitalization services. The annual hospitalization rate was 73.3%, 80.0%, 60.6%, 63.0%, respectively. Conclusion The location of patient medical insurance, the proportion of insurance used for reimbursement of pneumoconiosis, whether there is employment injury insurance at work, and whether to apply for compensation after pneumoconiosis are the influencing factors of the patients' annual hospitalization rate.

Objective: To understand the situation and characteristics of out-patient utilization of urban and rural pneumoconiosis patients in Jiangsu province, and to provide a reference for the formulation of relevant policies. Methods: Using a questionnaire on patients with pneumoconiosis and their influencing factors, 120 patients with pneumoconiosis were randomly selected in Nanjing, Wuxi, Suzhou, Yancheng Vocational Defense Institute or CDC. The rate of outpatients with pneumoconiosis in urban and rural areas and the choice of out-patient hospitals were analyzed. Results: Of the 75 patients with severe pneumoconi-related symptoms such as chest tightness and dyspnea in the first two weeks of the survey, 36 (48.0%) lived in cities and 39 (52.0%) lived in rural areas. Patients with pneumoconiosis who live in urban and rural areas have different aggravating conditions within two weeks. Two weeks of aggravated symptoms in outpatient consultations accounted for36 (48.0%) . Of the 36 patients who used outpatient treatment, rural residents mainly chose 8 people from a hospital and a township health hospital, accounting for 34.8%, while 10 people from urban residents chose a nursing home or nursing home, accounting for 40.0%. The main reason why urban and rural pneumoconiosis patients did not go to the doctor is "conscious symptoms are lighter" and "feel that the doctor is useless." Conclusion The rate of outpatients with pneumoconiosis in Jiangsu province within two weeks is lower than that of ordinary elderly residents. There may be differences in treatment behavior patterns of urban and rural pneumoconiosis patients.Economic factors have a certain influence on the outpatient treatment behavior of pneumoconiosis patients. The recognition of outpatient service is the main factor affecting the outpatient treatment of pneumoconiosis patients. It is very important to popularize the knowledge of pneumoconiosis and do a good job in propaganda of occupational diseases and health education for pneumoconiosis patients. Focusing on the outpatient treatment of pneumoconiosis patients and making targeted medical policies is very important to standardize and improve the rehabilitation of pneumoconiosis patients.

Objective To investigate the effect of diabetes on the expression of the glucose transporter (GLUT-1) in blood brain barrier (BBB) endothelial cell at different time points. Methods Forty male SD rats were randomly divided into normal control and diabetic group. Diabetic model of SD rats was established by intravenous streptozotocin(50 mg/kg) injection. Ten rats in each group were sacrificed on the 2nd month and 10th month respectively. The rat' s prefrontal cortex was removed to observe the expression of GLUT-1 in BBB EC with immunohistochemical(IHC) staining. Results By IHC method, the number of GLUT-1 positive microvessels was significantly decreased in diabetic group in the 2nd month (4. 3 ± 0. 9) compared with that of control group (6.4 ± 1.7, t = 7. 586, P < 0. 01 ) ; the number of GLUT-1 positive microvessels was significantly increased in the diabetic group in the 10th month (8.4 ± 1.4) compared with that of control group (5. 8 ± 1.7, t = 15.922,P < 0. 01 ). Conclusions Short-term diabetes GLUT-1 expression in BBB EC is downregulated in early stage, while it is upregulated in advanced stage.
