    Abstract Li-Fei-Xiao-Yan prescription (LFXY) has been clinically used in China to treat inflammatory and infectious diseases including inflammatory lung diseases. The present study was aimed at evaluating the potential therapeutic effects and potential mechanisms of LFXY in a murine model of lipopolysaccharide- (LPS-) induced acute lung injury (ALI). In this study, the mice were orally pretreated with LFXY or dexamethasone (positive drug) before the intratracheal instillation of LPS. Our data indicated that pretreatment with LFXY enhanced the survival rate of ALI mice, reversed pulmonary edema and permeability, improved LPS-induced lung histopathology impairment, suppressed the excessive inflammatory responses

    Abstract Li-Fei-Xiao-Yan prescription (LFXY) has been clinically used in China to treat inflammatory and infectious diseases including inflammatory lung diseases. The present study was aimed at evaluating the potential therapeutic effects and potential mechanisms of LFXY in a murine model of lipopolysaccharide- (LPS-) induced acute lung injury (ALI). In this study, the mice were orally pretreated with LFXY or dexamethasone (positive drug) before the intratracheal instillation of LPS. Our data indicated that pretreatment with LFXY enhanced the survival rate of ALI mice, reversed pulmonary edema and permeability, improved LPS-induced lung histopathology impairment, suppressed the excessive inflammatory responses via decreasing the expression of proinflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6) and chemokine (MIP-2) and inhibiting inflammatory cells migration, and repressed oxidative stress through the inhibition of MPO and MDA contents and the upregulation of antioxidants (SOD and GSH) activities. Mechanistically, treatment with LFXY significantly prevented LPS-induced TLR4 expression and NF-κB (p65) phosphorylation. Overall, the present study suggests that LFXY protected mice from acute lung injury induced by LPS via inhibition of TLR4/NF-κB p65 activation and upregulation of antioxidative enzymes and it may be a potential preventive and therapeutic agent for ALI in the clinical setting.

    Abstract Background: Diabetic foot (DF) is one of the serious complications of diabetes and lacks of therapeutic drugs. Abnormal and chronic inflammation promoting foot infection and wound healing delay are the main pathogenesis of DF. The traditional prescription San Huang Xiao Yan Recipe (SHXY) has been used in the clinical treatment of DF for several decades as approved hospital experience prescription and showed remarkable therapeutic effect, but the mechanisms by which SHXY treats DF are still unclear.
    Purpose: Objectives of this study were to investigate SHXY anti-inflammatory effect on DF and explore the molecular mechanism for SHXY.
    Methods: We detected the effects of SHXY on DF in C57 mouse and SD rat DF models. Animal blood glucose, weight and wound area were detected every week. Serum inflammatory factors were detected by ELISA. H&E and Masson's trichrome were used to observe tissue pathology. Single-cell sequencing data reanalysis revealed the role of M1 macrophages in DF. Venn analysis showed the co-target genes between DF M1 macrophages and compound-disease network pharmacology. Western blotting was used to explored target protein expression. Meanwhile, RAW264.7 cells were treated with drug-containing serum of SHXY to further unravel the roles of target proteins during high glucose-induced inflammation in vitro. The Nrf2 inhibitor ML385 was used on RAW 264.7 cells to further explore the relationship between Nrf2, AMPK and HMGB1. The main components of SHXY were analysed by HPLC. Finally, the treatment effect of SHXY on DF were detected on rat DF model.
    Results: In vivo, SHXY can ameliorate inflammatory, accelerate wound healing and upregulate expression of Nrf2, AMPK and downregulate of HMGB1. Bioinformatic analysis showed that M1 macrophages were the main inflammatory cell population in DF. Moreover, the Nrf2 downstream proteins HO-1 and HMGB1 were potential DF therapeutic targets for SHXY. In vitro, we also found that SHXY increased AMPK and Nrf2 protein levels and downregulated HMGB1 expression in RAW264.7 cells. Inhibiting the expression of Nrf2 impaired the inhibition effect of SHXY on HMGB1. SHXY promoted Nrf2 translocation into the nucleus and increased the phosphorylation of Nrf2. SHXY also inhibited HMGB1 extracelluar release under high glucose. In rat DF models, SHXY also exhibited significant anti-inflammatory effect.
    Conclusion: The SHXY activated AMPK/Nrf2 pathway to suppress abnormal inflammation on DF via inhibiting HMGB1 expression. These findings provide novel insight into the mechanisms by which SHXY treats DF.

    Abstract Cancer not only has a significant prevalence in the human population, but is also leading cause of death in animals. Despite a long history, our battle against cancer continues. Cross-species comparative genomics offers insight into shared genes and pathways by analyzing genomic data across species, enhancing our understanding of cancer mechanisms, evolutionary processes, and possible therapeutic targets. However, no previous study has demonstrated the inhibitory effects of tumor suppressor genes from one species on tumor cells from another. The naked mole rat is the only mammal yet to be found with cancer that is attributed to its tumor suppressor genes. In this study, we constructed phylogenetic trees and assessed the anti-tumor activity of two suppressor genes, programmed cell death molecule 5 (PDCD5) and dickkopf 3 (DKK3), from rats, mice, and humans. DKK3 robustly inhibited the proliferation of breast cancer cells within and across species due to its highly conserved protein sequence. However, the cross-species inhibitory effect of PDCD5 on breast cancer cells was inconsistent due to significant sequence variations. Intriguingly, PDCD5 from the naked mole rat demonstrated potent anti-tumor activity against breast cancer cells from mice, rats, and humans, surpassing that of PDCD5 from parental species. Our results demonstrate that the suppressor genes from the naked mole rat have a strong inhibitory effect on cancer cells, indicating that the powerful anti-cancer functions of the naked mole rat may be useful for human tumor treatment.

    Abstract Background: Epilepsy is one of the most common serious chronic neurological disorders, which can have a serious negative impact on individuals, families and society, and even death. With the increasing application of machine learning techniques in medicine in recent years, the integration of machine learning with epilepsy has received close attention, and machine learning has the potential to provide reliable and optimal performance for clinical diagnosis, prediction, and precision medicine in epilepsy through the use of various types of mathematical algorithms, and promises to make better parallel advances. However, no bibliometric assessment has been conducted to evaluate the scientific progress in this area. Therefore, this study aims to visually analyze the trend of the current state of research related to the application of machine learning in epilepsy through bibliometrics and visualization.
    Methods: Relevant articles and reviews were searched for 2004-2023 using Web of Science Core Collection database, and bibliometric analyses and visualizations were performed in VOSviewer, CiteSpace, and Bibliometrix (R-Tool of R-Studio).
    Results: A total of 1,284 papers related to machine learning in epilepsy were retrieved from the Wo SCC database. The number of papers shows an increasing trend year by year. These papers were mainly from 1,957 organizations in 87 countries/regions, with the majority from the United States and China. The journal with the highest number of published papers is EPILEPSIA. Acharya, U. Rajendra (Ngee Ann Polytechnic, Singapore) is the authoritative author in the field and his paper "Deep Convolutional Neural Networks for Automated Detection and Diagnosis of Epileptic Seizures Using EEG Signals" was the most cited. Literature and keyword analysis shows that seizure prediction, epilepsy management and epilepsy neuroimaging are current research hotspots and developments.
    Conclusions: This study is the first to use bibliometric methods to visualize and analyze research in areas related to the application of machine learning in epilepsy, revealing research trends and frontiers in the field. This information will provide a useful reference for epilepsy researchers focusing on machine learning.

    Abstract Bloom-induced macroalgal enrichment on the seafloor can substantially facilitate dissolved sulfide (DS) production through sulfate reduction. The reaction of DS with sedimentary reactive iron (Fe) is the main mechanism of DS consumption, which however usually could not effectively prevent DS accumulation caused by pulsed macroalgal enrichment. Here we used incubations to investigate the performance of Fe-rich red soil for buffering of DS produced from macroalgae (Ulva prolifera)-enriched sediment. Based on our results, a combination of red soil additions (6.8 kg/m

    Abstract Background: In clinical practice, stem cell transplantation has become an effective method for treating spinal cord nerve injury. Up to now, there has been no report on teratoma caused by transplanted stem cell's abnormal differentiation in the clinic, especially in the analysis of imaging manifestations. Therefore, this article aims to analyze the PET/CT imaging manifestations of teratoma caused by stem cell transplantation to improve the imaging diagnosing capability.
    Case presentation: A patient with a spinal cord injury who had received a stem cell transplant was examined by PET/CT on September 10th, 2020. The PET/CT images of the lesion showed irregular mixed low density on the right side of the erector spinae muscle area at the level of the cervical 3-5 vertebral body, with a maximum cross-section of 9.1×3.9 cm. The 18F-FDG metabolism of the lesion was increased, and the maximum standard uptake value (SUVmax) was 10.7. The boundary was unclear with the third cervical vertebra and cervical 3 and 4-level vertebral plates. Based on the patient's medical history, the lesion was diagnosed as an abnormal proliferative tumor, which was consistent with the pathological examination results.
    Conclusion: To date, there have been no clinical reports on teratomas caused by stem cell transplantation for spinal cord injury at home or abroad. This case report enhances the knowledge of the diagnosis and treatment methods of this type of disease and confirms the diagnostic value of PET/CT examination.
