This article systematically analyzes the historical evolution of the name， medicinal parts， origin， harvesting， processing and other aspects of Houttuyniae Herba（HH） by referring to the medical books， prescription books and other documents of the past dynasties， combined with the research materials related to modern and contemporary times， in order to provide a basis for the development of famous classical formulas containing this herb. In ancient literature， HH was often referred to as "Ji" and "Jicai"， the name of "Ji" was first recorded in Mingyi Bielu during the Han and Wei dynasties， and the name of Yuxingcao was first seen in Lyuchanyan Bencao during the southern Song dynasty and has continued to this day. The origin of HH used throughout history is consistent， all of which are the whole herb or aboveground parts of Houttuynia cordata in Saururaceae family. HH recorded throughout history has a wide range of production areas， mostly self-produced self-marketing. In ancient times， fresh HH was often used as medicine by pounding its juice without involving any processing steps. Both fresh and dried products can be used as medicine， the fresh products uses the whole plant， while the dried products uses the aboveground parts， which are cleaned， selected and processed before use. Fresh products are harvested regardless of season， while dried products are harvested in both summer and autumn， with summer as the best. In ancient times， there were no specific requirements for the quality of HH， while in modern times， "intact stems and leaves with a strong fishy smell" are preferred. In addition， the medicinal properties of HH have undergone significant changes from ancient to modern times. In the early period， it was believed that its medicinal property was slightly warm， until the 1977 edition of Chinese Pharmacopoeia officially changed it to slightly cold. Both ancient and modern literature states that HH can be used for the treatment of carbuncle and malignant sores， Lyuchanyan Bencao for the first time introduced HH fresh juice can relieve summer heat， since Diannan Bencao recorded that it can be used for lung carbuncle， and gradually developed into the first choice for the treatment of lung carbuncle. Based on the research results， it is suggested that fresh herb or dried aboveground parts of H. cordata are used as medicine when developing famous classical formulas.

Age (44.3±3.2) years old, typical manifestations of Cushing's syndrome in 28 cases, 24-hour urine free cortisol (176.4±41.2) μg/24 h. 27 cases showed disappearance of free cortisol rhythm. Dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate is normal. 23 routine high-dose and low-dose dexamethasone inhibition tests were not inhibited. The maximum diameter of the tumor is (4.2 ± 2.3) cm. T 1N 0M 0 stage patients undergo robotic or laparoscopic radical adrenalectomy, with the resection range including the surrounding lymphoid tissue of the tumor; Patients with stage ≥T 2 underwent open radical adrenalectomy and lymph node dissection. Six cases underwent radical adrenalectomy combined with nephrectomy due to tumor invasion of the kidneys with unclear boundaries. 11 cases of local implant metastasis underwent stereotactic radiotherapy. Nine patients with liver metastasis underwent Interventional Embolization treatment. Three cases with isolated lung metastases underwent surgical resection. Four cases of multiple lung metastases were treated with radiotherapy combined with mitotane. According to the postoperative pathological examination results, record the pathological Weiss score and MIB-1. Analyze the correlation between MIB-1 and clinical pathological indicators and prognosis of patients. Results:There were 59 cases in the ACC group, 35 cases of R0 resection, 19 cases of R1 resection and 5 cases of R2 resection.The postoperative pathological examination showed an average weight of approximately (371±52)g, with 42 cases having a tumor mass ≤ 300 g and 17 cases having a tumor mass>300 g. The positive rate of MIB-1 in the control group was 1% to 5%, while the positive rate of MIB-1 in the ACC group was greater than 5%, the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( P<0.01). 53 patients diagnosed with capsule invasion, capsule rupture, intravascular tumor thrombus, and MIB-1>10% through postoperative pathological examination were treated with tumor bed radiotherapy and mitotan medication, followed by second-line combination immunotherapy and EDP chemotherapy. The 5-year survival rates of ACC patients with different tumor stages were 65% in stage Ⅰ, 58% in stage Ⅱ, 38% in stage Ⅲ, and less than 5% in stage Ⅳ. The total survival time of the two subgroups with low and high staging was 3.6 years and 1.1 years respectively ( P=0.003), while the disease-free survival time of the two groups was 25 months and 11 months, respectively ( P=0.011). R0 resection has a better prognosis than R1 and R2 resection, and its five-year survival rate is higher ( P=0.03). The 5-year survival rates of R0, R1, and R2 groups were 61%, 31%, and 17%, respectively( P=0.030).Survival analysis showed that adrenal cortical cancer patients with MIB-1 greater than 10% had a worse prognosis, with 5-year OS of 17% and 32% for both groups, respectively ( P=0.021). The Weiss score of the ACC group was (7±2). There were 21 cases in the Weiss score 3-5 group and 38 cases in the 6-9 group, the 5-year survival rates of the two groups were 62% and 19%, respectively ( P=0.017). Conclusions:MIB-1 can serve as an auxiliary diagnostic and prognostic indicator, and high expression of MIB-1 can contribute to the early diagnosis and determination of treatment strategies for ACC.

Radiotherapy is widely used in the management of advanced colorectal cancer (CRC). However, the clinical efficacy is limited by the safe irradiated dose. Sensitizing tumor cells to radiotherapy via interrupting DNA repair is a promising approach to conquering the limitation. The BRCA1-BARD1 complex has been demonstrated to play a critical role in homologous recombination (HR) DSB repair, and its functions may be affected by HERC2 or BAP1. Accumulated evidence illustrates that the ubiquitination-deubiquitination balance is involved in these processes; however, the precise mechanism for the cross-talk among these proteins in HR repair following radiation hasn't been defined. Through activity-based profiling, we identified PT33 as an active entity for HR repair suppression. Subsequently, we revealed that BAP1 serves as a novel molecular target of PT33 via a CRISPR-based deubiquitinase screen. Mechanistically, pharmacological covalent inhibition of BAP1 with PT33 recruits HERC2 to compete with BARD1 for BRCA1 interaction, interrupting HR repair. Consequently, PT33 treatment can substantially enhance the sensitivity of CRC cells to radiotherapy in vitro and in vivo. Overall, these findings provide a mechanistic basis for PT33-induced HR suppression and may guide an effective strategy to improve therapeutic gain.
