Nowadays, a great number of traditional Chinese patent medicine (TCPM) are used more and more widely to treat cerebral infarction in China. When great attention is paid to using TCPM in the real world, several problems can be identified: ignoring the Chinese medicine (CM) therapeutic principle based on syndrome differentiation, a lack of appropriate dosage and usage based on individual patient conditions, and a shortage of evidence from randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trials. Furthermore, in terms of evaluation of the TCPM effectiveness, few comprehensive criteria and evaluation methods recognized by the international community exist. This article addresses some opinions regarding the above mentioned problems.

AI-Driven Discovery of Highly Specific and Efficacious hCES2A Inhibitors for Ameliorating Irinotecan-Triggered Gut Toxicity.

J Med Chem

March 2025

State Key Laboratory of Discovery and Utilization of Functional Components in Traditional Chinese Medicine; Shanghai Frontiers Science Center of TCM Chemical Biology; Institute of Interdisciplinary Integrative Medicine Research, Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Shanghai 201203, China.

The anticancer agent irinotecan often induces severe delayed-onset diarrhea, inhibiting human carboxylesterase 2A (hCES2A) can significantly alleviate irinotecan-triggered gut toxicity (ITGT). This work presents an efficient workflow for design and developing novel efficacious hCES2A inhibitors. A well-training machine learning model identified as a lead compound, while compound was developed as a novel time-dependent hCES2A inhibitor (IC = 0.

High-performance radiation-resistant lubricating materials (RRLMs) with nanostructures hold great promise for enhancing the irradiation tolerance because of their sinking effect of boundaries on defects. Despite recent advances, challenges remain in finding a nanostructure that exhibits both superior irradiation tolerance and excellent lubricant properties. Unlike traditional nanostructured composite materials that required complex predesign, herein, a MoS nanocrystals (NCs)/amorphous dual phase in subirradiation saturation (SIS) state was spontaneously formed during irradiation, exhibiting high irradiation resistance under the synergistic effect of "defect traps" by interfaces and edge dislocation.

Mendelian randomization and mediation analysis reveal the role of immune cell subsets in the causal pathways between blood cell perturbation responses and rheumatoid arthritis.

Clin Rheumatol

March 2025

Laboratory of Human Anatomy, School of Basic Medicine Anatomy , Southwest Medical University, Xianglin Road, Longmatan District, Luzhou City, Sichuan Province, China.

Background: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by complex immune interactions. Elucidating the causal relationships between blood cell perturbations, immune cell subsets, and RA can provide valuable insights into its pathogenesis.

Methods: This study employed bidirectional two-sample Mendelian Randomization (MR) to explore the causal effects of blood cell perturbations on RA risk, with a focus on immune cell mediation.

Background: Asian cancer patients have become the highest morbidity and mortality group, and gastrointestinal tumors account for the majority of them, so it is urgent to find effective targets. Therefore, ferroptosis-related lncRNAs models were established to predict the prognosis and clinical immune characteristics of GI cancer.

Methods: RNA sequencing and clinical data were collected from the TCGA database (LIHC, STAD, ESCA, PAAD, COAD, CHOL, and READ) of patients with gastrointestinal cancer in Asia.
