Abstract
Doxorubicin (DOX) is a chemotherapeutic agent widely used for tumor treatment. Nonetheless its clinical application is heavily limited by its cardiotoxicity. There is accumulated evidence that transplantation of mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes (MSC-EXOs) can protect against Dox-induced cardiomyopathy (DIC). This study aimed to examine the cardioprotective effects of EXOs isolated from human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived MSCs (iPSC-MSCs) against DIC and explore the potential mechanisms. EXOs were isolated from the cultural supernatant of human BM-MSCs (BM-MSC-EXOs) and iPSC-MSCs (iPSC-MSC-EXOs) by ultracentrifugation. A mouse model of DIC was induced by intraperitoneal injection of Dox followed by tail vein injection of PBS, BM-MSC-EXOs, or iPSC-MSC-EXOs. Cardiac function, cardiomyocyte senescence and mitochondrial dynamics in each group were assessed. In vitro, neonatal mouse cardiomyocytes (NMCMs) were subjected to Dox and treated with BM-MSC-EXOs or iPSC-MSC-EXOs. The mitochondrial morphology and cellular senescence of NMCMs were examined by Mitotracker staining and senescence-associated-β-galactosidase assay, respectively. Compared with BM-MSC-EXOs, mice treated with iPSC-MSC-EXOs displayed improved cardiac function and decreased cardiomyocyte mitochondrial fragmentation and senescence. In vitro, iPSC-MSC-EXOs were superior to BM-MSC-EXOs in attenuation of cardiomyocyte mitochondrial fragmentation and senescence caused by DOX. MicroRNA sequencing revealed a higher level of miR-9-5p in iPSC-MSC-EXOs than BM-MSC-EXOs. Mechanistically, iPSC-MSC-EXOs transported miR-9-5p into DOX-treated cardiomyocytes, thereby suppressing cardiomyocyte mitochondrial fragmentation and senescence via regulation of the VPO1/ERK signal pathway. These protective effects and cardioprotection against DIC were largely reversed by knockdown of miR-9-5p in iPSC-MSC-EXOs. Our results showed that miR-9-5p transferred by iPSC-MSC-EXOs protected against DIC by alleviating cardiomyocyte senescence via inhibition of the VPO1/ERK pathway. This study offers new insight into the application of iPSC-MSC-EXOs as a novel therapeutic strategy for DIC treatment.

Abstract
Cholestasis is a pathological condition characterized by disruptions in bile flow, leading to the accumulation of bile acids (BAs) in hepatocytes. Allocholic acid (ACA), a unique fetal BA known for its potent choleretic effects, reappears during liver regeneration and carcinogenesis. In this research, we investigated the protective effects and underlying mechanisms of ACA against mice with cholestasis brought on by α-naphthylisothiocyanate (ANIT). To achieve this, we combined network pharmacology, targeted BA metabolomics, and molecular biology approaches. The results demonstrated that ACA treatment effectively reduced levels of serum AST, ALP, and DBIL, and ameliorated the pathological injury caused by cholestasis. Network pharmacology analysis suggested that ACA primarily regulated BA and salt transport, along with the signaling pathway associated with bile secretion, to improve cholestasis. Subsequently, we examined changes in BA metabolism using UPLC-MS/MS. The findings indicated that ACA pretreatment induced alterations in the size, distribution, and composition of the liver BA pool. Specifically, it reduced the excessive accumulation of BAs, especially cholic acid (CA), taurocholic acid (TCA), and β-muricholic acid (β-MCA), facilitating the restoration of BA homeostasis. Furthermore, ACA pretreatment significantly downregulated the expression of hepatic BA synthase Cyp8b1, while enhancing the expression of hepatic efflux transporter Mrp4, as well as the renal efflux transporters Mdr1 and Mrp2. These changes collectively contributed to improved BA efflux from the liver and enhanced renal elimination of BAs. In conclusion, ACA demonstrated its potential to ameliorate ANIT-induced liver damage by inhibiting BA synthesis and promoting both BA efflux and renal elimination pathways, thus, restoring BA homeostasis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute rhinosinusitis (ARS) is one of the common diseases of upper respiratory tract infection in children. Bacterial infection is a significant aggravating factor in pediatric ARS. In this research, our goal was to detected the bacterial flora and antibiotic sensitivity of ARS in Chinese children. METHODS We recruited 133 children with ARS between January 2020 and January 2022 from our hospital. Sinus secretion were collected and cultured for Gram stain as well as antimicrobial susceptibility tests. RESULTS Moraxella catarrhalis, Staphylococcus aureus, Haemophilus influenzae, Streptococcus pneumoniae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa were detected in order in children with ARS, of which 25% were negative for bacterial culture and 10% were positive for two strains. Amoxicillin and clavulanate potassium were useful for Haemophilus influenzae, Streptococcus pneumoniae and Moraxella catarrhalis. Quinolones are useful for Staphylococcus aureus, Haemophilus influenzae, Streptococcus pneumoniae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. CONCLUSIONS This research updates the proportion of ARS bacterial infection in children in southern China and the antibiotic sensitivity.

Abstract
Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) senescence contributes to abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) formation although the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. This study aimed to investigate the role of miR-199a-5p in regulating VSMC senescence in AAA. VSMC senescence was determined by a senescence-associated β-galactosidase (SA-β-gal) assay. RT-PCR and Western blotting were performed to measure miRNA and protein level, respectively. The generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) was evaluated by H2DCFDA staining. Dual-luciferase reporter assay was used to validate the target gene of miR-199a-5p. VSMCs exhibited increased senescence in AAA tissue relative to healthy aortic tissue from control donors. Compared with VSMCs isolated from control donors (control-VSMCs), those derived from patients with AAA (AAA-VSMCs) exhibited increased cellular senescence and ROS production. Angiotensin II (Ang II) induced VSMC senescence by promoting ROS generation. The level of miR-199a-5p expression was upregulated in the plasma from AAA patients and Ang II-treated VSMCs. Mechanistically, Ang II treatment significantly elevated miR-199a-5p level, thereby stimulating ROS generation by repressing Sirt1 and consequent VSMC senescence. Nevertheless, Ang II-induced VSMC senescence was partially attenuated by a miR-199a-5p inhibitor or Sirt1 activator. Our study revealed that miR-199a-5p aggravates Ang II-induced VSMC senescence by targeting Sirt1 and that miR-199a-5p is a potential therapeutic target for AAA.
