DNA-encoded chemical library (DEL) links the power of amplifiable genetics and the non-self-replicating chemical phenotypes, generating a diverse chemical world. In analogy with the biological world, the DEL world can evolve by using a chemical central dogma, wherein DNA replicates using the PCR reactions to amplify the genetic codes, DNA sequencing transcripts the genetic information, and DNA-compatible synthesis translates into chemical phenotypes. Importantly, DNA-compatible synthesis is the key to expanding the DEL chemical space. Besides, the evolution-driven selection system pushes the chemicals to evolve under the selective pressure, i.e., desired selection strategies. In this perspective, we summarized recent advances in expanding DEL synthetic toolbox and panning strategies, which will shed light on the drug discovery harnessing in vitro evolution of chemicals via DEL.

Objective:To study influence of exercise rehabilitation based on psycho-cardiology medical model on pa-tients with coronary heart disease(CHD)after percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI).Methods:A total of 164 CHD patients undergoing PCI in our hospital were randomly and equally divided into routine nursing group and exer-cise rehabilitation group(received exercise rehabilitation based on psycho-cardiology medical model based on rou-tine nursing group).Both groups were intervened for six months.General clinical data,score of somatic symptoms scale(SSS),cardiac function indexes:LVEF and LVEDV,6min walking distance(6MWD)and score of 36-item short-form heath survey(SF-36)were compared between two groups.Results:During follow-up,there were three cases lost in routine nursing group,and two cases lost and four cases stopped follow-up in exercise rehabilita-tion group.Compared with routine nursing group,six months after intervention,there were significant reductions in SSS score[(33.97±5.76)scores vs.(25.76±4.79)scores]and LVEDV[(125.33±16.14)ml vs.(119.53± 16.82)ml],and significant rise in LVEF[(56.28±4.46)％vs.(59.28±4.90)％],6MWD[(410.42±20.08)m vs.(439.69±20.66)m],scores of physical functioning[(19.20±4.22)scores vs.(23.76±3.98)scores],bodily pain[(7.42±1.99)scores vs.(8.84±1.94)scores],general health[(16.42±4.73)scores vs.(19.09±4.37)scores],vitality[16.0(7.0)scores vs.19.0(6.8)scores],role-emotional[(4.86±1.10)scores vs.(5.18± 0.86)scores],mental health[20.0(5.0)scores vs.24.0(8.8)scores]of SF-36 in exercise rehabilitation group(P＜0.05 or＜0.01).Conclusion:Exercise rehabilitation based on psycho-cardiology medical model can signifi-cantly improve cardiac function and psychological status,and improve quality of life in patients with coronary heart disease after PCI.

Objective:To investigate the clinical application value of the new tracer mitoxantrone hydrochloride in imaging of cervical lymph nodes and identifying of parathyroid, recurrent laryngeal nerve during thyroid cancer radical surgery.Methods:A prospective controlled study was conducted between January 2022 and April 2024 at Tianjin First Central Hospital, recruiting 180 patients with thyroid cancer, including 54 males and 126 females, aged from 26 to 69 years. The patients were randomly divided into three groups: the mitoxantrone hydrochloride lymph node tracing group (MHI group), the nanocarbon lymph node tracing group (nanocarbon group), and the control group without lymph node tracers, with 60 cases in each group. All patients underwent total thyroid resection and regional lymph node dissection. The number of detected lymph nodes and positive metastatic lymph nodes and surgical field clarity scores and the identification rate of parathyroid glands and the instances of inadvertent excision were compared between the groups. Serum calcium and parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels at different perioperative time points and treatment-related complications were analyzed. One-way ANOVA, chi-square test and two independent sample non-parametric tests, were employed for statistical analyses.Results:The mean operation time, neck drainage volume and hospital stay in the MHI group and the nanocarbon group were respectively significantly lower than those in the control group ( P<0.05). The mean staining intensity score, tracer success rate and surgical field clarity score in MHI group were respectively significantly higher than those in nanocarbon group ( P<0.05). The mean numbers of dissected lymph nodes positive metastatic nodes and identification rates of parathyroid glands in MHI group were respectively significantly higher than those in both the nanocarbon and control groups ( P<0.05). The rates of inadvertent parathyroid excision in both MHI group and nanocarbon group were significantly lower than those in control group ( P<0.05). On postoperative day 1 and day 5, mean serum calcium and PTH levels in MHI group were respectively significantly higher than those in nanocarbon group and control groups. However, on postoperative day 1, there was no difference in mean serum calcium levels between the nanocarbon group and the control group ( P>0.05), though PTH level in the nanocarbon group was higher than that in the control group. By postoperative day 5, both serum calcium and PTH levels were higher in the nanocarbon group compared to the control group ( P<0.05). On postoperative days 30, there were no differences in serum calcium and PTH levels between the MHI group and the nanocarbon group ( P>0.05). The risks of facial numbness, hand and foot tetany and choking during drinking were lower in both the MHI and nanocarbon groups compared to the control group ( P<0.05). Conclusion:MHI demonstrates advantages in rapid targeted delivery and clear staining of the surgical field during regional lymph node dissection in radical thyroidectomy for thyroid cancer, effectively reducing the risk of collateral damage to the recurrent laryngeal nerve and parathyroid glands.

Objective　To understand the trends of serum lipid concentration and the prevalence of dyslipidemia in adults aged 35 years and older, and to compare the regional differences in lipids. Methods　Based on the data of Anhui Province in the Early Screening and Comprehensive Intervention Project for High-risk Groups of Cardiovascular Disease in China from 2017 to 2021, the change trend of blood lipid level and the prevalence rate of each region were plotted according to the year and different regions in the province, and the influencing factors of dyslipidemia were analyzed by multivariate regression model. Results　The overall average levels of total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C) demonstrated an increase followed by a slight decrease with age annually, while the levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and triglycerides (TG) fluctuated minimally. From 2017 to 2020, TC levels improved annually but increased again in 2021. Similar to TG and non-HDL-C, the average LDL-C level decreased annually from 2017 to 2019, while rebounded in 2020 and 2021 compared with the previous three years. In contrast, the HDL-C level continued to decline. With the exception of HDL-C, the overall blood lipid levels in the northern Anhui (n=31 716) were higher than those in the southern Anhui (n=50 681), and the lowest levels were found in the central Anhui (n=38 246). The prevalence of hypercholesterolemia (7.400%, 2 347/31 716), high LDL-C (5.228%, 1 658/31 716), low HDL-C (9.935%, 3 151/31 716), hypertriglyceridemia (18.212%, 5 776/31 716), and high non-HDL-C (5.789%, 1 836/31 716) were highest in the northern Anhui. Age, region, senior high school or above, smoking, drinking, systolic blood pressure, blood glucose, and body mass index were independent factors for dyslipidemia (P<0.05). Conclusion　The blood lipid level and prevalence of dyslipidemia in adults aged ≥35 years in Anhui Province have not yet reached an ideal control level, especially in the northern part of Anhui Province where there is a need for enhanced awareness and timely intervention measures for lipid-related diseases to effectively extend the life expectancy of residents.

AIM:To investigate the role of Ywhab in the growth of mouse B-cell lymphoma,and to explore the potential underlying mechanisms.METHODS:The correlation between Ywhab and human diffuse large B-cell lymphoma(DLBCL)was investigated by bioinformatics analysis.Infection with retroviral vector was performed to establish stable mouse B-cell lymphoma 38B9 cell line with overexpression of Ywhab gene,which was verified by RT-qPCR and Western blot.The impact of Ywhab overexpression on 38B9 cell growth both in vitro and in vivo was detected by cell counting,CCK-8 assay,and subcutaneous tumor loading experiments.The expression of apoptosis-related proteins was detected by RT-qPCR and Western blot.Co-immunoprecipitation combined with mass spectrometry(CoIP-MS)was employed to search for proteins specifically binding to Ywhab gene product 14-3-3β,which was confirmed by Western blot and molecu-lar docking analysis.RESULTS:The Ywhab gene exhibited low expression in DLBCL,which was correlated with poor clinical prognosis of DLBCL patients.Compared with normal mouse bone marrow B cells,Ywhab expression was low in 38B9 cells.Overexpression of Ywhab induced apoptosis of 38B9 cells both in vitro and in vivo,promoted the expression of pro-apoptotic proteins Puma,Noxa and Bax at both mRNA and protein levels,and inhibited the mRNA and protein expres-sion of anti-apoptotic protein Bcl2(P＜0.05).The 14-3-3β protein specifically bound to Hsp90aa1 and reduced Hsp90aa1 protein levels,thereby suppressing the growth of 38B9 cells.CONCLUSION:Ywhab promotes the apoptosis of B-cell lymphoma cells by binding to Hsp90aa1 and thereby inhibiting the function of Hsp90aa1.

Objective To investigate the origin of Biomphalaria straminea in China, so as to provide insights into assessment of schistosomiasis mansoni transmission risk and B. straminea control. Methods Guanlan River, Dasha River, Shenzhen Reservoir, upper and lower reaches of Kuiyong River, and Xinzhen River in Shenzhen, China, were selected as sampling sites. Ten Biomphalaria samples were collected from each site, and genomic DNA was extracted from Biomphalaria samples. DNA samples were obtained from 15 B. straminea sampled from 5 sampling sites in Minas Gerais State, Pará State, Federal District, Pernambuco State, and Sao Paulo State in Brazil, South America. Cytochrome c oxidase I (COI) and mitochondrial 16S ribosomal RNA (16S rRNA) genes were sampled using the above DNA templates, and the amplified products were sequenced. The COI and 16S rRNA gene sequences were downloaded from GenBank, and the sampling sites were acquired. All COI and 16S rRNA gene sequences were aligned and evolutionary trees of B. straminea were created based on COI and 16S rRNA gene sequences to identify the genetic similarity and evolutionary relationship between B. straminea samples from China and South America. Results A total of 60 COI gene sequences with a length of 529 bp and 3 haplotypes were obtained from B. straminea sampled from China. There were 165 COI gene sequences of B. straminea retrieved from GenBank, and following alignment with the above 60 gene sequences, a total of 33 haplotypes were obtained. Phylogenetic analysis showed that the three haplotypes of B. straminea from China were clustered into one clade, among which the haplotype China11 and three B. straminea samples from Brazil retrieved from GenBank belonged to the same haplotype. Geographical evolution analysis showed that the B. straminea samples from three sampling sites along eastern coasts of Brazil had the same haplotype with China11, and B. straminea samples from other two sampling sites were closely, genetically related to China11. A total of 60 16S rDNA gene sequences with approximately 322 bp in length were amplified from B. straminea in China, with 2 haplotypes identified. A total of 70 16S rDNA gene sequences of B. straminea were captured from GenBank. Phylogenetic analysis showed that Biomphalaria snails collected from China were clustered into a clade, and the haplotype China64 and the haplotype 229BS from Brazil shared the same haplotype. The 49 16S rDNA gene sequences of B. straminea from 25 sampling sites in southern Brazil, which were captured from GenBank, were included in the present analysis, and the B. straminea from 3 sampling sites shared the same haplotype with China64 in China. Geographical evolution analysis based on COI and 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that B. straminea sampled from eastern coastal areas of Brazil shared the same haplotypes in two gene fragment sequences with Biomphalaria snails collected from China. Conclusions The Biomphalaria snails in China are characterized as B. straminea, which have a low genetic diversity. The Biomphalaria snails in China have a high genetic similarity with B. straminea sampled from eastern coastal areas of Brazil, which may have originated from the eastern coastal areas of Brazil.
