Objective: To summarize the clinical and genetic characteristics of children with β-ketothiolase deficiency (BKTD). Methods: The clinical characteristics, biochemical, markers detected by tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS), as well as the variants in ACAT1 gene among 5 children with BKTD in Children's Hospital of Chongqing Medical University between October 2018 and December 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. Results: The onset age of the disease in 5 patients (4 males and 1 female) ranged from 9.7 to 28.0 months. During the acute phase, severe metabolic acidosis was observed with a pH of 6.9-7.1, as well as hypoglycaemia (2.3-3.4 mmol/L) and positive urinary ketone bodies (+-++++). Blood levels of methylcrotonyl carnitine, methylmalonyl carnitine and malonyl carnitine were 0.03-0.42, 0.34-1.43 and 0.83-3.53 μmol/L respectively and were significantly elevated. Urinary 2-methyl-3-hydroxybutyric acid was 22-202 and 3-hydroxybutyric acid was 4-6 066, both were higher than the normal levels. Methylcrotonylglycine was mild elevated (0-29). The metabolites detected by MS/MS and GC/MS were significantly reduced after treatment. Analysis of ACAT1 gene mutation was performed in 5 children. Most variants were missense (8/9). Four previously unreported variants were identified: c.678G>T (p.Trp226Cys), c.302A>G (p.Gln101Arg), c.627_629dupTGA (p.Asn209_Glu210insAsp) and c.316C>T (p.Gln106Ter), the first 2 variants were predicted to be damaging by SIFT, PolyPhen-2 and Mutation Taster software. c.316C>T (p.Gln106Ter) is a nonsense variant. Conclusions: β-ketothiolase deficiency is relatively rare, lacks specific clinical manifestations, however severe metabolic acidosis, hypoglycemia, and ketosis during the acute onset were consistent findings. Missense mutations in the ACAT1 gene are common genetic causes of β-ketothiolase deficiency.

ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanism of Jiedu Huoxue prescription in promoting the reendothelialization of injured vessels by regulating the nuclear factor (NF)-κB/NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3)/cysteine-aspartic acid protease (Caspase)-1-mediated pyroptosis. MethodA rat model of injured thoracic aorta was established by balloon injury, and 36 rats were assigned into shame surgery, model, low-, medium-, and high-dose Jiedu Huoxue prescription, and atorvastatin calcium tablet groups. The injured aortic segment was collected 28 days after surgery. Hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining and Evans blue staining were conducted to reveal the changes of vascular structural morphology and the reendothelialization of blood vessels, respectively. The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was employed to determine the levels of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), interleukin (IL)-1β, and nitric oxide (NO) in the serum. Western blotting was employed to determine the expression of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS), NF-κB p65, phospho-NF-κB p65 (p-NF-κB p65), NLRP3, and Caspase-1 in the vascular tissue. ResultThe model group showed thickened endovascular membrane, proliferation and disarrangement of smooth muscle cells of the artery wall, obvious inflammatory cell infiltration, and narrowed luminal area. Jiedu Huoxue prescription and atorvastatin calcium tablets mitigated the pathological changes of the thoracic aorta in different degrees. After balloon injury, the endothelial coverage rate of the model group decreased significantly, while Jiedu Huoxue prescription and atorvastatin calcium tablets increased the reendothelialization rate (P<0.05). Compared with the shame surgery group, the model group showed elevated levels of TNF-α, ICAM-1, and IL-1β (P<0.01) and lowered NO level (P<0.01) in the serum. In addition, the model group presented down-regulated protein level of eNOS (P<0.01) and up-regulated phosphorylation of pyroptosis-associated proteins NLPR3, Caspase-1, and NF-κB p65 in the vascular tissue (P<0.05, P<0.01). Compared with the model group, Jiedu Huoxue prescription and atorvastatin calcium tablets lowered TNF-α, ICAM-1, and IL-1β levels (P<0.05, P<0.01) and elevated the NO level in the serum (P<0.05, P<0.01). Moreover, the drugs up-regulated the expression of eNOS (P<0.01) and down-regulated the expression of NLRP3, Caspase-1, and NF-κB p65 (P<0.05, P<0.01) in the vascular tissue. ConclusionJiedu Huoxue prescription can promote the reendothelialization and inhibit the intimal hyperplasia of vessels after balloon injury by regulating the NF-κB/NLRP3/Caspase-1 pathway to inhibit pyroptosis and reduce endothelial inflammatory injury.

Osteoporosis (OP) is a systemic metabolic bone disease. Amid population aging, OP has become a major health problem for the middle-aged and the elderly in China. Aging, iron load, and estrogen deficiency break the balance between oxidation and antioxidant systems, and the increase of reactive oxygen species mediates oxidative stress to damage DNA, lipids, proteins and other macromolecules, thus accelerating cell apoptosis and inducing OP, obesity, and neurodegenerative disorders. It has been found that oxidative stress is of great significance in the pathogenesis of OP. Oxidative stress regulates the signaling pathways, cytokines, and proteins related to the mesenchymal stem cells, osteoblasts, and osteoclasts, thereby weakening the osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells, inhibiting osteoblast mineralization, and promoting the activation, proliferation, and maturation of osteoclasts. As a result, the dynamic imbalance between bone resorption and bone formation occurs, influencing bone remodeling and promoting the progression of OP. At the moment, anti-bone resorption drugs, bone formation-promoting drugs, and hormones are mainly used in clinical settings in western medicine. However, due to the long treatment cycle and the occurrence of serious gastrointestinal reactions, hypocalcemia, osteonecrosis, and others, patients show poor compliance and thus the effect is not as expected. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) demonstrates remarkable effect on OP attributing to the multi-pathway and multi-target characteristics. With low price and few adverse reactions, TCM is widely applied in clinical practice in comparison with western medicine. TCM has unique advantages in the treatment of OP by regulating oxidative stress. It exerts the therapeutic effect on OP by modulating different signaling pathways, providing new mindset for the treatment of this disease. Therefore, through literature research, this study summarized the research on mechanism of oxidative stress in OP and the treatment by TCM, which is expected to lay a foundation for further research.

Objective:To explore the feasibility and clinical effect of modified tibial transverse transport (TTT) technique in treatment of severe diabetic foot.Methods:The research was carried out from November 2015 to November 2017 at the Department of Hand Microsurgery, Xiangya Hospital of Central South University. Red latex was used to perfuse 10 adult lower limb specimens through femoral artery. The study observed the occurrence rate of osteofascial cutaneous branches from the inner and posterior edge of tibia within 6.0 to 10.0 cm distal from the tibial tubercle, as well as the number, distribution, outer diameter and other indicators of the perforating cutaneous branches and periosteal branches. Combined with findings in the anatomical observation, a chimeric flap with a vessel of posterior medial tibial osteofascial cutaneous branch was designed to improve TTT in the treatment of diabetic foot. From February 2016 to November 2018, 12 patients with Wagner’s Grades Ⅲ and Ⅳ diabetic feet were treated. All the patients were treated with a modified TTT, with a piece of designed tibial bone flap at 10.0 cm × 2.5 cm in size. After surgery, 5 patients with gangrenous toes received various toe stump reconstruction surgery for removal of the external fixator for bone transport. Two patients had arch stone flap reconstructions for the wounds of heel and sole, 3 patients had the wounds self-healed, and 2 patients with Wagner’s Grade IV diabetic feet had proximal calf amputations. Postoperative follow-ups were run through visits of outpatient clinic, and meanwhile the preliminary effects of the surgical procedure were observed and summarised.Results:Among the 10 specimens, it was found that a total of 11 osteofascial cutaneous branches(2 branches in 1 case and 1 branch in 9 cases) branched out from the posterior edge of tibia within 6-10 cm distal to the tibial tubercle. The distance to the tibial tubercle was 9.23 cm± 0.62 cm, with an outer diameter at 1.10 mm ± 0.10 mm. After penetrating the deep fascia, the osteofascial cutaneous branch further branched out a skin branch with an outer diameter of 0.59 mm± 0.09 mm, and delivered blood supply to the medial skin of calf. Meanwhile, it also branched out a periosteal branch with an outer diameter of 0.85 mm ± 0.10 mm, and supplied blood to the medial periosteum of tibia. All surgery went smoothly. A significant increase of temperature in foot skin and a significant decrease in postoperative Visual Analogue Scale(VAS) score were found in comparison with what before the surgery( P<0.05). The follow-up time of 12 patients was 24-36(29.33 months ± 4.36 months). After surgery, the symptoms of pain and numbness in the affected limbs were significantly improved or even disappeared and the wounds in foot were completely healed in 10 patients. The wounds of TTT in the calf were all healed in stage-I. The segments of tibial bone transport were all completely healed with healing time of 6.17 months ± 0.83 months. The wounds of the 2 amputees healed well. Conclusion:Modified TTT bone graft can effectively promote wound healing and reduce complications by covering the wound with a posterior tibial medial fascia flap in the treatment of severe diabetic foot. Further studies are required to confirm the benefits to the patients from this modified surgical procedure.

Ethnic medicine has a rich history of application. Because of the large number of ethnic groups, wide geographical distribution, and unique medical systems in China, the research on the human use experience(HUE) of ethnic medicine should combine the characteristics of ethnic medicine, be based on practical experience, and respect folk practice and tradition. The clinical positioning of ethnic medicine should consider three factors, i.e., population region, dominant diseases, and clinical demand. We should consider the development of traditional preparations that meet the needs of ethnic regions and encourage the development of new drugs that can be popularized and used nationwide for the dominant diseases of ethnic medicines. Attention should be paid to the problems such as a large number of customary articles or substitutes of ethnic medicinal materials, the phenomena of foreign bodies with the same name and different names for the same substance, the different standards of medicinal materials, and the poor processing standards. The name, processing method, source, medicinal parts, and dosage of ethnic medicinal materials or decoction pieces should be determined, and resources should be carefully evaluated to ensure the safety of medicinal resources and ecology. The preparation of ethnic medicine is mostly in the form of pills, powder, ointment, etc., with simple processing technology. The problems of low-quality stan-dards of some preparations, different prescriptions with the same name, and inconsistent processing technology should be overcome, and the process route and main process parameters should be clarified to lay the foundation for the subsequent empirical research on HUE. In the collection and analysis of the HUE data of ethnic medicine, the core guiding ideology of "patient-centered" should be established, and the experience data of patients should be collected. The problems of weak links existing in the inheritance of ethnic medicine should be solved, and flexible and diverse methods should be adopted. Meanwhile, on the premise of complying with the requirements of the principles of medical ethics, we should respect the religion, culture, and customs of ethnic areas to obtain the key HUE information of ethnic medicine. On the basis of the patient preference information and differences in regional disease epidemiology, population characteristics, and medical practice, whether the HUE conclusions of ethnic medicine can be extrapolated to patients outside the region is evaluated from the aspects of clinical benefits, risk tolerance, risk acceptance, etc. The HUE research on ethnic medicine is carried out in a clear way to guide the research and development of new ethnic medicines.

The toxic pathogen theory, an important part of the theories of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM), began in the Qin and Han dynasties, formed in the Jin, Sui, Tang, and Song dynasties, developed rapidly in the Ming and Qing dynasties, and conti-nued to develop in contemporary times based on the achievements of its predecessors. The continuous exploration, practice, and inheri-tance of many medical practitioners over the generations have facilitated the enrichment of its connotation. The toxic pathogen is violent, fierce, dangerous, prolonged, rapid in transmission, easy to hurt the internal organs, hidden, and latent, with many changes, and it is closely related to the development of tumor diseases. TCM has a history of thousands of years in the prevention and treatment of tumor diseases. It is gradually realized that the etiology of tumor is mainly attributed to the deficiency of healthy Qi and excess of to-xic pathogen, and the struggle between healthy Qi and toxic pathogen runs through the whole course of tumor, with the deficiency of healthy Qi as the prerequisite and the invasion of toxic pathogen as the root of the occurrence. The toxic pathogen has a strong carcinogenic effect and is involved in the whole process of tumor development, which is closely related to the malignant behaviors of tumors, including proliferation, invasion, and metastasis. This study discussed the historical origin and modern interpretation of the toxic pathogen theory in the prevention and treatment of tumors, with aims of sorting out the theoretical system based on the toxic pathogen theory in the treatment of tumor diseases, and illustrating the importance of the toxic pathogen theory in the treatment of tumors in the context of modern research on pharmacological mechanisms and the development and marketing of relevant anti-tumor Chinese medicinal preparations.

ObjectiveTo investigate whether Jiedu Huoxue prescription can induce macrophage autophagy and inhibit inflammatory response to stabilize vulnerable plaques of atherosclerosis (AS) by regulating phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (Akt)/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway. MethodThirty ApoE-/- mice fed with high-fat diet were randomly assigned into model, low-, medium-, and high-dose (5.35, 10.7, and 21.4 g·kg-1·d-1, respectively) Jiedu Huoxue prescription (Chinese medicine), and rapamycin (2 mg·kg-1·d-1) groups. Six ApoE-/- mice fed with common diet were used as the control group, and 6 C57BL/6J mice fed with common diet as the blank group. The drugs or equal volume of normal saline were administrated by gavage after 7 weeks of modeling, and the treatment lasted for 4 weeks. The serum levels of lipids and inflammatory cytokines [monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) and interleukin-6 (IL-6)] were measured. Hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining was employed to observe the pathological changes of the vascular wall of the aortic root. Immunohistochemistry was employed to detect the expression of macrophages/monocytes monoclonal antibody (MOMA-2) and α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA). Transmission electron microscopy was employed to count the autophagosomes in the aorta, and Western blot to determine the protein levels of Beclin-1, LC3, PI3K, Akt, and mTOR. ResultCompared with the control group, the model group showed elevated serum levels of lipids, MCP-1, and IL-6 (P<0.05), inhibited expression of MOMA-2 and α-SMA (P<0.05, P<0.01), up-regulated protein level of Beclin-1 (P<0.05), and down-regulated protein levels of PI3K, Akt, and mTOR (P<0.05, P<0.01). The model group presented obvious atherosclerotic plaques on the inner wall of the aorta, infiltration of inflammatory cells in the plaque, thickened and disarranged vascular intima where the plaque was attached, decreased autophagosomes and mitochondria, and destroyed mitochondrial structure. Chinese medicine and rapamycin groups showed lower levels of total cholesterol, triglycerides, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, MCP-1, and IL-6 (P<0.05), higher level of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (P<0.05), inhibited expression of MOMA-2 and α-SMA (P<0.05, P<0.01), higher protein levels of Beclin-1 and LC3Ⅱ (P<0.05, P<0.01), and lower protein levels of PI3K, Akt, and mTOR (P<0.05, P<0.01) than the model group. Moreover, Chinese medicine and rapamycin groups showed only a small number of atherosclerotic plaques on the inner wall of the aorta, reduced infiltration of inflammatory cells and thickness of the blood vessel wall, and increased autophagosomes and autophagic lysosomes. ConclusionJiedu Huoxue prescription can improve lipid metabolism, enhance macrophage autophagy, and reduce AS-induced inflammation to improve the stability of vulnerable plaques in AS mice by inhibiting the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway.

The development of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) has always been highly valued and supported since 1949. However, Chinese medicine industry still faces great challenges in view of the current status of the industry and registration and approval of new products in recent years. Related policies also directly influence the development of the industry. The latest version of the Provisions for Drug Registration and Requirement on Registration Classification and Application Information of Traditional Chinese Medicines have been put into practice since 2020. Registration classification is the core content of the Chinese medicine registration management system, as it is closely related to the research, development, and registration of Chinese medicine and the innovative development of the industry. This article aims to systematically review the historical evolution of the category of Chinese medicine registration and analyze the current status and problems, which is expected to provide a reference for the formulation of supporting documents according to related laws and regulations.

Since the implementation of drug registration in China, the classification of Chinese medicine has greatly met the needs of public health and effectively guided the transformation, inheritance, and innovation of research achievements on traditional Chinese medicine(TCM). In the past 30 years, the development of new Chinese medicine has followed the registration transformation model of " one prescription for single drug". This model refers to the R&D and registration system of modern drugs, and approximates to the " law-abiding" medication method in TCM clinic, while it rarely reflects the sequential therapy of syndrome differentiation and comprehensive treatment with multiple measures. In 2017, Opinions on Deepening the Reform of Review and Approval System and Encouraging the Innovation of Drugs and Medical Devices released by the General Office of the CPC Central Committee and the General Office of the State Council pointed out that it is necessary to " establish and improve the registration and technical evaluation system in line with the characteristics of Chinese medicine, and handle the relationship between the traditional advantages of Chinese medicine and the requirements of modern drug research". Therefore, based on the development law and characteristics of TCM, clinical thinking should be highlighted in the current technical requirements and registration system of research and development of Chinese medicine. Based on the current situation of registration supervision of Chinese medicine and the modern drug research in China, the present study analyzed limitations and deficiency of " one prescription for single drug" in the research and development of Chinese medicine. Additionally, a new type of " series prescriptions" was proposed, which was consistent with clinical thinking and clinical reality. This study is expected to contribute to the independent innovation and high-quality development of the TCM industry.

DNA is the hereditary material in humans and almost all other organisms. It is essential for maintaining accurate transmission of genetic information. In the life cycle, DNA replication, cell division, or genome damage, including that caused by endogenous and exogenous agents, may cause DNA aberrations. Of all forms of DNA damage, DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are the most serious. If the repair function is defective, DNA damage may cause gene mutation, genome instability, and cell chromosome loss, which in turn can even lead to tumorigenesis. DNA damage can be repaired through multiple mechanisms. Homologous recombination (HR) and non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) are the two main repair mechanisms for DNA DSBs. Increasing amounts of evidence reveal that protein modifications play an essential role in DNA damage repair. Protein deubiquitination is a vital post-translational modification which removes ubiquitin molecules or polyubiquitinated chains from substrates in order to reverse the ubiquitination reaction. This review discusses the role of deubiquitinating enzymes (DUBs) in repairing DNA DSBs. Exploring the molecular mechanisms of DUB regulation in DSB repair will provide new insights to combat human diseases and develop novel therapeutic approaches.

Collecting and summarizing human use experience(HUE) data, forming high-quality data and evidences that can be used for evaluation are the key links of HUE research on traditional Chinese medicine(TCM). The collection, collation and summary of human experience data were discussed in this paper. It is pointed out that the collection of HUE should be focus on the source of prescription of new traditional Chinese medicines, and be summarized based on dialectical thinking, experience in medication, characte-ristics of prescription and clinical application. The collected contents include prescription, process, clinical location and applicable population, efficacy data and safety data, etc. The methods include interview, clinical data summary and data mining. When the data formed based on HUE information is used as drug registration information, it is necessary to ensure that the data source is legal and compliant, and the ownership of intellectual property is clear.Data sources should meet the requirements of medical ethics. To avoid conflict of interest, data analysis should be conducted by an independent third party. It is necessary to develop the quality control measures of HUE data to ensure the data traceability, integrity, consistency and accuracy, and avoid data bias.The data of HUE should include the key data such as accurate clinical location and applicable population, recognized clinical efficacy and safety.After the formation of HUE, the statistical analysis plan of empirical data of human use should be formulated. Through strict data processing, statistical analysis and clinical interpretation, HUE can be produced for evaluation.

This article proposes that the research and development of new Chinese medicines should be based on the clinical values of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM), and expounds the multiple clinical values of new Chinese medicines such as therapeutic effects, adjuvant treatment effects, improvement of disease symptoms, improvement of quality of life, prevention of diseases, etc., so as to broaden the clinical indications of new Chinese medicines. It is pointed out that the clinical value of TCM determines the clinical efficacy evaluation method of new Chinese medicines, so as to construct a clinical evaluation system of new Chinese medicines with the characteristics of TCM. It is proposed that the clinical value of new Chinese medicines should be found under the guidance of TCM theo-ry and clinical practice, and the theoretical innovation of TCM should be emphasized. There is no difference in the clinical value of drugs, and the key is to meet the clinical needs of patients. The research and development of new Chinese medicines ignores the theoretical guidance of Chinese medicine, and relying solely on animal experiment data may lead to failure of clinical trials. Different from the individualized treatment of TCM clinical syndrome differentiation, summarizing the core pathogenesis of TCM is the basis for the development of new Chinese medicines. It is necessary to summarize the pathogenesis of the disease under the guidance of TCM theory and encourage the application of modern medical methods to clarify the diagnosis of the disease. In view of the characteristics of new Chinese medicine research and development, it is proposed that the supporting role of human experience should be emphasized, and the technical points of clinical trials of new syndrome-type Chinese medicines should be explained.The use of objective indicators for syndrome evaluation, the selection of appropriate scales, and the formulation of reasonable treatment courses are advocated. During the research and development of new Chinese medicines, it is not only necessary to pay attention to modern medical safety indicators, but also to observe the evolution of TCM syndromes and specific TCM symptoms.

The relevant laws and regulations of drug clinical trials were introduced in this paper. It is pointed out that with drug re-gulatory laws and technological advances, clinical trials have become an important link in the development of new drugs of traditional Chinese medicines(TCM). Clinical trials of new drugs of TCM must comply with the requirement of "Good Clinical Practice for Trial on Medicinal Products". In view of the particularities of clinical trials of new drugs of TCM, China has established an ethical review system for clinical research in TCM and carried out ethical review and certification of TCM research. In order to guide the development of clinical trials of new drugs of TCM, relevant departments have promulgated a series of guidelines for clinical trials of it, and established a new review system and technical requirements for clinical trials. Since 1983, the "national clinical pharmacology base" has been established. At present, there are 96 drug clinical trial institutions and 32 phase I clinical research wards in TCM hospitals, which can meet the development of clinical trials of new drugs of TCM. In the long-term practice, the technical team has continued to grow and develop, the research experience and technical strength have been significantly improved, and a large number of experts have become the backbone of clinical research in Chinese medicine. It is pointed out that we should attach importance to risk and benefit assessment, human experience, select scientific, objective and appropriate effectiveness indexes, evaluate the efficacy of TCM syndromes, and encourage the use of electronic methods in clinical research of new drugs of TCM. Based on the analysis of clinical trials of TCM in recent five years, it is pointed out that the active degree of clinical trials of new drugs of TCM is not high, the innovation ability of it is insufficient and the ability and enthusiasm of all aspects need to be improved. It is of great significance to carry out clinical trials of new traditional Chinese medicines to upgrade the TCM industry and produce high-level evidence-based medicine evidences. The high quality development of TCM can be promoted by strengthening clinical trials of new drugs of TCM.

At present, the issues regarding multi-center clinical trials of new drugs of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) remain: the lack of agreement on the content and scope of the ethical review among the ethics committee members of the center and the participating units results in repeated review, which leads to a time-consuming ethical review process. Moreover, the review capabilities of the ethics committees of various research centers are uneven, which is not necessarily beneficial to the protection of subjects' rights and safety. In view of the existing problems, to improve the efficiency of ethical review of multi-center clinical trials of new drugs of TCM and avoid repeated reviews, the TCM Clinical Evaluation Professional Committee of Chinese Pharmaceutical Association organized experts to formulate the "Consensus on collaborative ethical review of multi-center clinical trials of new drugs of TCM(version 1.0)"(hereinafter referred to as "Consensus"). The "Consensus" is formulated in accordance with the requirements of relevant documents such as but not limited to "the opinions on deepening the reform of the evaluation and approval system to encourage the innovation of pharmaceutical medical devices", "the regulations of ethical review of biomedical research involving human subjects". The "Consensus" covers the scope of application, formulation principles, conditions for the ethics committee of the center, sharing of ethical review resources, scope and procedure of collaborative review, rights and obligations, etc. The aims of the "Consensus" is to preliminarily explore and establish a scientific and operable ethical review procedure. Additionally, on the basis of fully protecting the rights and interests of the subjects, a collaborative ethical review agreement needs to be signed to clarify the ethical review responsibilities of all parties, to avoid repeated review, and to improve the efficiency and quality of ethical review in multi-center clinical trials of new drugs of TCM.
