    Abstract Abstract: Breast cancer, a malignant tumor with a high incidence in women, lacks in vitro research models that can represent the biological functions of breast tumors in vivo. As a new biological tool, the organoid model has unique advantages over traditional methods, such as cell culture and patient-derived xenografts. Combining organoids with other emerging technologies, such as gene engineering and microfluidic chip technology, provides an effective method to compensate for the deficiencies in organoid models of breast cancer in vivo. The emergence of breast cancer organoids has provided new tools and research directions in precision medicine, personality therapy, and drug research. In this review, we summarized the merits and demerits of organoids compared to traditional biological models, explored the latest developments in the combination of new technologies and organoid models, and discussed the construction methods and application prospects of different breast organoid models.

    Abstract The Mayfly Optimization Algorithm (MOA), as a new biomimetic metaheuristic algorithm with superior algorithm framework and optimization methods, plays a remarkable role in solving optimization problems. However, there are still shortcomings of convergence speed and local optimization in this algorithm. This paper proposes a metaheuristic algorithm for continuous and constrained global optimization problems, which combines the MOA, the Aquila Optimizer (AO), and the opposition-based learning (OBL) strategy, called AOBLMOA, to overcome the shortcomings of the MOA. The proposed algorithm first fuses the high soar with vertical stoop method and the low flight with slow descent attack method in the AO into the position movement process of the male mayfly population in the MOA. Then, it incorporates the contour flight with short glide attack and the walk and grab prey methods in the AO into the positional movement of female mayfly populations in the MOA. Finally, it replaces the gene mutation behavior of offspring mayfly populations in the MOA with the OBL strategy. To verify the optimization ability of the new algorithm, we conduct three sets of experiments. In the first experiment, we apply AOBLMOA to 19 benchmark functions to test whether it is the optimal strategy among multiple combined strategies. In the second experiment, we test AOBLMOA by using 30 CEC2017 numerical optimization problems and compare it with state-of-the-art metaheuristic algorithms. In the third experiment, 10 CEC2020 real-world constrained optimization problems are used to demonstrate the applicability of AOBLMOA to engineering design problems. The experimental results show that the proposed AOBLMOA is effective and superior and is feasible in numerical optimization problems and engineering design problems.

    Abstract The glymphatic system is a relatively recently identified fluid exchange and transport system in the brain. Accumulating evidence indicates that glymphatic function is impaired not only in central nervous system disorders but also in systemic diseases. Systemic diseases can trigger the inflammatory responses in the central nervous system, occasionally leading to sustained inflammation and functional disturbance of the central nervous system. This review summarizes the current knowledge on the association between glymphatic dysfunction and central nervous system inflammation. In addition, we discuss the hypothesis that disease conditions initially associated with peripheral inflammation overwhelm the performance of the glymphatic system, thereby triggering central nervous system dysfunction, chronic neuroinflammation, and neurodegeneration. Future research investigating the role of the glymphatic system in neuroinflammation may offer innovative therapeutic approaches for central nervous system disorders.

    Abstract In China, the environmental capacity problem of heavy metals has long been hidden in the Pearl River Basin creating a contradiction between the economic development and environmental health. Thus, this research calculated the environmental capacity of heavy metals in the agricultural land of the urban agglomeration in the Pearl River Basin, evaluated the health risk warning capacity using a comprehensive index. The results showed that the static capacity order of heavy metals in the study area was As > Pb > Zn > Cr > Hg > Cu > Ni > Cd. The dynamic capacity showed an upward trend, and it fluctuated in some cities. The remaining capacity of Cr and Ni was relatively poor, and the comprehensive soil quality index of the Pearl River Basin was 0.64. The pollution level was of grade IV, which belongs to the medium capacity, but the soil pollution risk still existed, which threaten the health of local resident. In this regard, this study also put forward some countermeasures for pollution control. Thus, studying the soil heavy metal environmental capacity can provide a reference for heavy metal pollution control and health risk early warning in the Pearl River Basin.

    Abstract Neuropathic pain often leads to negative emotions, which in turn can enhance the sensation of pain. This study aimed to investigate the molecular mechanisms mediating neuropathic pain and negative emotions. Chronic constriction injury (CCI) rats were used as model animals and behavioral tests were conducted to assess pain and negative emotions. Then, the rat anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) was analyzed using UPLC-MS/MS and subsequently integrated with our previously published transcriptome data. Metabolomics analysis revealed that 68 differentially expressed metabolites (DEMs) were identified, mainly in amino acid metabolites and fatty acyls. Combined with our previously published transcriptome data, we predicted two genes that potentially exhibited associations with these metabolites, respectively Apolipoprotein L domain containing 1 (Apold1) and WAP four-disulfide core domain 1 (Wfdc1). Taken together, our results indicated that peripheral nerve injury contributing to neuropathic pain and pain-related depression may be associated with these metabolites and genes. This research provides new insights into the molecular regulatory mechanism, which could serve as a reference for the treatment of neuropathic pain and pain-related depression.

    Abstract Anti-ovarian antibody (AOA) could be considered an independent marker for autoimmune ovarian disease and predicting future premature ovarian failure (POF). This study aims to investigate if AOA is associated with poor ovarian response (POR) and pro-inflammatory immune responses in women undergoing assisted reproductive technology (ART) cycles. Two hundred forty-eight women undergoing ART cycles were divided into four groups based on AOA test results and the presence of POR: POR(-)/AOA(-) group (N = 148), POR(+)/AOA(-) group (N = 34), POR (-)/AOA(+) group (N = 44), POR(+)/AOA(+) group (N = 22). The POR patients have a significantly higher prevalence of AOA than non-POR patients (P < 0.05). Peripheral blood CD56 + natural killer (NK) cell level (%), NK cytotoxicity, CD19 +CD5 + B-1 cell level (%), and IFN-γ/IL-10 producing T helper (Th) 1/Th2 cell ratios were significantly higher in POR(+)/AOA(+) group than those of other groups (P < 0.001, P < 0.005, P < 0.01, P < 0.05, respectively). TNF-α/IL-10 producing Th1/Th2 cell ratio of POR(+)/AOA(+) group was significantly higher than those of POR(+)/AOA(-) and POR(-)/AOA(-) groups (P < 0.05, respectively). Homocysteine and vitamin D levels of the POR(+)/AOA(+) group were significantly lower than those of other groups (P < 0.005, respectively). Plasminogen activator inhibiter-1 (PAI-1) level of POR(+)/AOA(+) group was significantly higher than that of POR(-)/AOA(-) group (P < 0.05). In the POR(+)/AOA(+) group, the prevalence of antiphospholipid antibodies was significantly higher than that of the POR(+)/AOA(-) group (P = 0.005). Women with autoimmune POR (POR(+)/AOA(+)) have dysregulated pro-inflammatory immune responses and metabolic factors. The diagnostic and therapeutic approaches for autoimmune POR should be differentiated from those for non-autoimmune POR.

    Abstract In this paper, a multiple-relaxation-time lattice Boltzmann (LB) approach is developed for the simulation of three-dimensional (3D) liquid-vapor phase change based on the pseudopotential model. In contrast to some existing 3D thermal LB models for liquid-vapor phase change, the present approach has two advantages: for one thing, the current approach does not require calculating the gradient of volumetric heat capacity [i.e., $\nabla \left( {\rho {c_v}} \right)$], and for another, the current approach is constructed based on the seven discrete velocities in three dimensions (D3Q7), making the current thermal LB model more efficient and easy to implement. Also, based on the scheme proposed by Zhou and He [Phys Fluids 9:1591-1598, 1997], a pressure boundary condition for the D3Q19 lattice is proposed to model the multiphase flow in open systems. The current method is then validated by considering the temperature distribution in a 3D saturated liquid-vapor system, the $d^2$ law and the droplet evaporation on a heated surface. It is observed that the numerical results fit well with the analytical solutions, the results of the finite difference method and the experimental data. Our numerical results indicate that the present approach is reliable and efficient in dealing with the 3D liquid-vapor phase change.
