    Abstract Objective: Atypical antipsychotics (APs) modify the gut microbiome, and weight gain in response to AP could be mediated by the gut microbiome. Thus, the present study aimed to explore the changes in the gut bacterial microbiome in AP-exposed children with obesity.
    Methods: To rule out the confounder of AP indication, the gut bacterial microbiome was compared between healthy controls (Con) and AP-exposed individuals with overweight (APO) or normal weight (APN). Fifty-seven AP-treated outpatients (21 APO and 36 APN) and 25 Con were included in this cross-sectional microbiota study.
    Results: AP users, regardless of body mass index, exhibited decreased microbial richness and diversity and a distinct metagenomic composition compared to the Con. Although no differences in the microbiota structure were observed between APO and APN groups, the APO group was characterised by a higher abundance of
    Conclusions: The gut bacterial microbiota of APO children revealed taxonomic and functional differences compared to Con and APN. Further studies are needed to verify these findings and to explore the temporal and causal relationships between these variables.

    Abstract Background: Most studies of the gut-brain axis have focused on bacteria; little is known about commensal fungi. Children and adolescents with depression were reported to have gut bacterial microbiota dysbiosis, but the role of the mycobiota has not been evaluated.
    Methods: Faecal samples were obtained from 145 children and adolescents with depression and 110 age- and gender-matched healthy controls. We analysed the fungal microbiota, including in terms of their associations with the gut microbiota, and subjected the internal transcribed spacer 2 (ITS2) rRNA gene to mitochondrial sequencing.
    Results: Our findings revealed unaltered fungal diversity, but altered taxonomic composition, of the faecal fungal microbiota in the children and adolescents with depression. Key fungi such as Saccharomyces and Apiotrichum were enriched in the depressed patients, while Aspergillus and Xeromyces showed significantly decreased abundance. Interestingly, the bacterial-fungal interkingdom network was markedly altered in the children and adolescents with depression, and mycobiome profiles were associated with different bacterial microbiomes.
    Limitation: The cross-sectional design precluded the establishment of a causal relationship between the gut mycobiota and the children and adolescents with depression.
    Conclusions: The gut mycobiome is altered in the children and adolescents with depression. Our findings suggest that fungi play an important role in the balance of the gut microbiota and may help identify novel therapeutic targets for depression.

    Abstract Objective: To identify the effect of hyperbaric oxygen combined with folic acid on clinical efficacy and cognitive function in patients with cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD), and to analyze the risk factors affecting efficacy.
    Methods: Data from 108 elderly patients with CSVD (homocysteine (Hcy) > 10 μmol/L) treated in The First Hospital of Yulin from February 2019 to February 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, 50 patients treated with folic acid were set as the control group (CG), and the remaining 58 patients treated with additional hyperbaric oxygen therapy were in the study group (SG). Clinical efficacy was compared between the two groups after treatment, and changes in Hcy level before and after treatment were observed. Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) was used to compare the improvement of cognitive function between two groups. According to the efficacy after treatment, patients with markedly effective and effective responses were set as the improved group, and patients with ineffective response as the unimproved group. Risk factors affecting the efficacy of the patients were analyzed by logistic regression. Also, changes in quality of life (assessed by activities of daily living (ADL) scale) before and after treatment as well as the incidence of adverse reactions after treatment were and compared between groups.
    Results: Before treatment, there was no significant difference identified in MoCA scores, plasma Hcy levels, or ADL scores between the two groups (P > 0.05). After treatment, scores of MoCA and ADL increased and plasma Hcy level decreased in both groups, and the changes in the SG were more significant than those in the CG (P < 0.05). Additionally, no notable difference was observed in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups (P > 0.05). Logistic regression analysis revealed that hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and diabetes were risk factors affecting the efficacy.
    Conclusion: Hyperbaric oxygen combined with folic acid can effectively improve cognitive function and quality of life, and reduce Hcy level in patients with CSVD. In addition, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and diabetes are risk factors affecting efficacy.

    Abstract Background: Gastric cancer (GC) is the third leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. Heterophyllin B (HB) has been proved to be a potential drug in cancer treatment.
    Methods: In the current study, GC cells were treated with 0, 10, 25, or 50 μM of HB. Cell viability was determined by utilizing MTT assay. Flow cytometry was carried out for cell apoptosis and cell cycle analysis. The expression levels of IRE1, CHOP, GRP78 and Bcl-2 in cells and tumors were measured by Western blot and immunohistochemistry, respectively.
    Results: Our data uncovered that HB administration significantly suppressed GC cell viability, but facilitated GC cell apoptosis and cell cycle arrest at G0/G1 phase. The effects of HB on GC cell proliferation, apoptosis and cell cycle showed dosage-dependent manner. Furthermore, expression of ER stress-associated proteins like IRE1, CHOP and GRP78 was markedly upregulated, while anti-apoptosis protein Bcl2 expression was inhibited by HB treatment in a dosage-dependent manner. Our data indicated that HB treatment facilitated caspase-3 expression in a dose-dependent manner, but had no effect on caspase-8 expression. Importantly, the inhibition of HB to GC cell apoptosis and cell cycle process and the promotion of HB to GC cell proliferation were partly rescued by inhibition of ER stress utilizing 4-PBA. In animal experiments, HB administration suppressed GC tumor growth, boosted IRE1, CHOP and GRP78 expression and inhibited Bcl-2 expression.
    Conclusion: All in all, HB treatment could effectively suppress GC cells proliferation and tumors growth and facilitate GC cells apoptosis and cell cycle arrest through activating ER stress. Our data indicated that HB may be a potential drug for GC treatment.

    Abstract Tetrandrine (Tet), a traditional Chinese herbal medicine extract, exhibits anti-cancer effect on many types of cancer. Nonetheless, the action mechanism of Tet in gastric cancer (GC) is still largely unclear. In the current study, proliferation, invasion, and migration of the BGC-823 and MKN-45 cells were effectively suppressed by Tet treatment in a dose-dependent manner. Moreover, Tet suppressed expression of the proliferation-associated protein PCNA, the interstitial cell phenotype N-cadherin, and the extracellular matrix-associated MMP-2 and MMP-9 in BGC-823 and MKN-45 cells in a dose-dependent manner. PI3K/AKT/mTOR, a cancer promoting signaling, was inactivated by Tet in a dose-dependent manner in BGC-823 and MKN-45 cells. Furthermore, our results demonstrated that the inhibition of Tet to PCNA, N-cadherin, MMP-2, and MMP-9 expression was partly rescuedby AKT inhibitor or mTOR inhibitor. In animal experiments, tumor growth was inhibited by Tet administration in a dose-dependent manner. In conclusion, the current data indicated that Tet had a critical effect on inhibiting BGC-823 and MKN-45 cells proliferation, migration, invasion, and tumor growth via regulating PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway, suggesting that Tet might be a potential treatment for GC.

    Abstract Heterocycles with saturated N atoms (HetSNs) are widely used electron donors in organic light-emitting diode (OLED) materials. Their relatively low bond dissociation energy (BDE) of exocyclic C-N bonds has been closely related to material intrinsic stability and even device lifetime. Thus, it is imperative to realize fast prediction and precise regulation of those C-N BDEs, which demands a deep understanding of the relationship between the molecular structure and BDE. Herein, via machine learning (ML), we rapidly and accurately predicted C-N BDEs in various HetSNs and found that five-membered HetSNs (5-HetSNs) have much higher BDEs than almost all 6-HetSNs, except emerging boron-N blocks. Thorough analysis disclosed that high aromaticity is the foremost factor accounting for the high BDE of 5-HetSNs, and introducing intramolecular hydrogen-bond or electron-withdrawing moieties could also increase BDE. Importantly, the ML models performed well in various realistic OLED materials, showing great potential in characterizing material intrinsic stability for high-throughput virtual-screening and material design efforts.
