Chinese medicine therapy has advantages in treating aplastic anemia (AA) in depart- ments of Chinese medicine (CM) blood diseases. But there is no unified syndrome typing standard of CM for severe AA. Heat-toxin induced yin deficiency syndrome is one of severe AA syndrome types com- monly seen in authors' long-term clinical practice. This syndrome type has the features of asthenia in ori- gin and asthenia in superficiality. Therefore, authors put forward that detoxication, blood activating, and yin nourishing (DBAYN) method, taking detoxication as superficiality and Shen supplementing as origin. Meanwhile, blood activating and stasis removing was assisted. Detoxication aimed to eliminating evils and purifying blood, blood activating aimed to getting rid of evils and generating new blood, and yin nour- ishing aimed to strengthening vital qi and nourishing blood. Classical recipes such as Xijiao Dihuang De- coction and Erzhi Pill could be modified. This theory was of great significance in complementing and per- fecting CM theoretical systems of AA, which provided beneficial ideas and methods for clinical treatment of severe AA.

The challenge of "false positive" signals significantly complicates tumor localization and surgical resection, which are pivotal for successful tumor surgeries. Therefore, the development of a method for preoperative tumor localization and intraoperative margin determination holds considerable promise for improving surgical outcomes. In this study, a zero-crosstalk ratiometric tumor-targeting near-infrared (NIR) fluorescent probe was developed for precise cancer diagnosis and intraoperative navigation via NIR fluorescence imaging.

Chronic low-grade inflammation observed in older adults, termed inflammaging, is a common feature underlying a multitude of aging-associated maladies including a decline in hematopoietic activity. However, whether suppression of inflammaging can preserve hematopoietic health span remains unclear, in part because of a lack of tools to measure inflammaging within hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). Here, we identify thrombospondin-1 (Thbs1) as an essential regulator of inflammaging within HSCs.

Functional differences between rodent and human PD-1 linked to evolutionary divergence.

Mechanistic understanding of the inhibitory immunoreceptor PD-1 is largely based on mouse models, but human and mouse PD-1 share only 59.6% amino acid identity. Here, we found that human PD-1 is more inhibitory than mouse PD-1, owing to stronger interactions with the ligands PD-L1 and PD-L2 and more efficient recruitment of the effector phosphatase Shp2.

Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is highly polymorphic, and host mtDNA variation has been associated with altered cancer severity. To determine the basis of this mtDNA-cancer association, we analyzed conplastic mice with the C57BL/6J (B6) nucleus but two naturally occurring mtDNA lineages, and , where mitochondria generate more oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS)-derived reactive oxygen species (mROS). In a cardiac transplant model, Foxp3+ T regulatory (Treg) cells supported long-term allograft survival, whereas Treg cells failed to suppress host T effector (Teff) cells, leading to acute rejection.
