OBJECTIVE: To explore the potential role of mRNA m7G modification in the pathogenesis of human adenocarcinoma of esophagogastric junction (AEG). METHODS: Pathological tissue specimens from four AEG patients who underwent surgical treatment at the People's Hospital Affiliated to Jiangsu University between 2018 and 2019 were selected. Tumor tissues and adjacent normal tissues were collected from these patients. RNA was extracted from both tissue types and subjected to m7G methylated RNA immunoprecipitation sequencing (m7G-MeRIP-seq) to analyze the patterns of m7G modification, the characteristics of differential m7G modification sites, the differentially expressed mRNA, and the correlation between m7G modification and mRNA expression levels. Differential m7G-modified genes (MSH6, BRCA1, and SOX9) were further validated using methylated RNA immunoprecipitation quantitative PCR (MeRIP-qPCR), while the expression of METTL1 and WDR4 genes was examined by real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR). This study was approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of the People's Hospital Affiliated to Jiangsu University (Ethics No. 20150083). RESULTS: m7G-MeRIP-seq analysis revealed that m7G modifications in both AEG and adjacent normal tissues were predominantly located in the GC-rich region surrounding the internal start codon of mRNA. Differential m7G modification sites between the two groups were closely associated with cancer-related genes. mRNA library analysis showed that differentially expressed mRNA were predominantly upregulated in AEG tissues and downregulated in adjacent normal tissues. Cross-analysis indicated that genes with hypermethylation tended to exhibit upregulated expression, while genes with hypomethylation were typically downregulated in AEG tissues. MeRIP-qPCR validation confirmed that the mRNA expression of MSH6, BRCA1, and SOX9 were significantly upregulated in AEG tissues compared to adjacent normal tissues (AEG vs. normal, P < 0.05). RT-qPCR results demonstrated that the mRNA expression levels of METTL1 and WDR4 were also upregulated in AEG tissues (AEG vs. normal, P < 0.000 5). CONCLUSION These findings suggest that mRNA m7G modification plays a significant role in the development of AEG. Furthermore, proteins as METTL1 and WDR4 may facilitate AEG progression by regulating mRNA m7G modification. These results provide valuable insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying AEG and may inform future therapeutic strategies for this malignancy.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the genotype-phenotype relationship in a child with Opitz G/BBB syndrome (OS) with mild clinical phenotype. METHODS: A child with motor developmental delay as the initial symptom admitted to Xi'an Children's Hospital on June 10, 2021 was selected for this study. Clinical data were collected, and peripheral blood samples were obtained from the child and his mother. Whole exome sequencing (WES) was performed to identify genetic variant in the child. Candidate variant were verified by Sanger sequencing to assess inheritance patterns and pathogenicity. Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) and Western blot (WB) analyses were conducted to evaluate the effects of the variant on mRNA and protein expression, respectively, using recombinant expression plasmids generated in vitro. This study was approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of Xi'an Children's Hospital (Ethics No. 20240045). RESULTS: The child, a 9-month-and-7-day-old boy, presented with a low nasal bridge, hypertelorism, and difficulty sitting independently. Echocardiography revealed an atrial septal defect. WES identified a homozygous variant in the MIDI gene, c.1483C>T (p.R495X), which was confirmed by Sanger sequencing and found to be inherited from the mother.Recombinant expression plasmids were successfully constructed. RT-qPCR analysis showed that the variant significantly reduced MIDI gene mRNA expression, while WB results indicated that the variant led to the production of a truncated protein. CONCLUSION The mild clinical phenotype of OS in this child may be attributed to the mRNA degradation escape mechanism induced by the nonsense variant c.1483C>T (p.R495X) in the MIDI gene. These findings provide valuable diagnostic insights for this pedigree and contribute to the understanding of the genotype-phenotype correlation in OS.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the role of CDGSH iron-sulfur domain 2 (CISD2) in patients with sepsis-related myocardial injury (SMI) and its predictive value for 28-day prognosis and myocardial damage through clinical studies and cell experiments. METHODS: A retrospective study was conducted. Adult patients diagnosed with sepsis admitted to the critical care medicine of Third Affiliated Hospital of Qiqihar Medical University from January 2023 to January 2024 were enrolled. The clinical data, laboratory indicators, expression level of CISD2 mRNA in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) 24 hours after admission, and 28 days prognosis were collected. Patients were divided into SMI group [left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) < 0.50 or LVEF decreased by ≥ 10% from baseline] and sepsis non-myocardial injury group based on LVEF. The expression levels of CISD2 mRNA were compared between the two groups, and the correlation between CISD2 and myocardial injury was analyzed. Patients were divided into the low-expression group (CISD2 mRNA < 0.5 copy/μL) and the high-expression group (CISD2 mRNA ≥ 0.5 copy/μL) based on the expression of CISD2 mRNA, and into the survival group and the death group based on the prognosis at 28 days. The clinical characteristics were analyzed between the groups. Multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the independent predictors of 28-day mortality in patients with sepsis. The predictive value of CISD2 for myocardial damage and 28-day prognosis in patients with sepsis were evaluated by using the receiver operator characteristic curve (ROC curve). In addition, in vitro experiments using human AC16 cardiomyocytes was conducted. The cells were divided into control group, lipopolysaccharide (LPS) group, the LPS+transfection group with overexpression of CISD2 plasmid (LPS+p-CISD2 group), and the LPS + transfection group with negative control plasmid (LPS+p-NC group). The mRNA expression of CISD2 in cells were detected by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR), the protein expression of CISD2 in cells were detected by Western blotting, and the cell viability was determined by cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8). RESULTS: A total of 85 sepsis patients were included, with 32 developing myocardial injury and 53 without myocardial injury. There were 40 cases of low expression of CISD2 and 45 cases of high expression of CISD2. At 28 days, 60 cases survived and 25 cases died. The mRNA expression of CISD2 in the SMI group was significantly lower than that in the sepsis non-myocardial injury group (copy/μL: 0.41±0.09 vs. 0.92±0.13, P < 0.05). CISD2 was significantly correlated with myocardial injury in patients with sepsis (r = 0.729, P < 0.05). The proportion of LVEF < 0.50 (67.50% vs. 11.11%), sequential organ failure score (SOFA: 15.63±2.15 vs. 11.12±1.52), and acute physiology and chronic health evaluation II (APACHEII: 29.49±3.51 vs. 22.41±2.61) in the CISD2 low-expression group were significantly higher than those in the CISD2 high-expression group (all P < 0.05), while there were no significantly differences in other indicators. The Kaplan-Meier survival curve showed that the 28-day survival time of sepsis patients with in the CISD2 low-expression group was significantly shorter than that in the CISD2 high-expression group (Log-rank test: χ ² = 5.601, P < 0.05). The proportion of CISD2 low-expression and the proportion of LVEF < 0.50 in the survival group were both higher than those in the death group (80.00% vs. 33.33%, 64.00% vs. 26.67%, both P < 0.05), while there were no significantly differences in other indicators. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that CIDS2 and LVEF were independent predictive factors for 28-day mortality in patients with sepsis [CIDS2: odds ratio (OR) = 3.400, 95% confidence interval (95%CI) was 1.026-11.264, P = 0.045; LVEF: OR = 2.905, 95%CI was 1.029-8.199, P = 0.044]. ROC curve analysis showed that when CISD2 was expressed at a low level, patients with sepsis were at high risk of death within 28 days and myocardial injury. The sensitivity of CISD2 in predicting the 28-day mortality of patients with sepsis was 80.00%, and the specificity was 66.67%, and the area under the curve (AUC) was 0.733 (95%CI was 0.626-0.823). The sensitivity of CISD2 in predicting myocardial injury in patients with sepsis was 83.87%, the specificity was 74.07%, and the AUC was 0.790 (95%CI was 0.688-0.871). In addition, compared with the control group, the mRNA and protein expressions of CISD2 as well as the cell activity in the LPS group were significantly decreased. The mRNA and protein expressions of CISD2 and the activity of cardiomyocytes transfected with p-CISD2 were significantly increased. CONCLUSIONS CISD2 plays a protective role in sepsis-associated myocardial injury and has good predictive value for 28-day prognosis and myocardial injury.

OBJECTIVES: This study aims to explore the potential relationships of cell-free DNA (cfDNA) in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) with periodontal clinical indicators and the expression of DNA receptor pathway cyclic guanosine phosphate-adenosine phosphate synthase (cGAS)-stimulator of interferon genes (STING) in gingival tissues and human gingival fibroblasts (HGFs). METHODS: GCF and gingival tissue samples were collected from periodontally healthy individuals and patients diagnosed with periodontitis. Periodontal clinical indicators were recorded, including plaque index (PLT), bleeding index (BI), probing depth (PD), and clinical attachment level (CAL). The concentration of cfDNA in GCF was quantified, and the correlation between GCF and periodontal clinical indicators was analyzed. Immunofluorescence and reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) were used to assess the distribution of cGAS, STING, and p-STING in gingival tissues. Additionally, the mRNA expression levels of the key components of the cGAS-STING signaling pathway, namely, cGAS, STING, inhibitory of kappa-B kinase (IKK), nuclear factor kappa-B p65 (NF-κB p65), interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), were measured. Furthermore, cfDNA extracted from GCF was employed to stimulate HGFs in the healthy control and periodontitis groups, and the mRNA expression levels of the key molecules of cGAS-STING signaling pathway were detected through Western blot and RT-qPCR. RESULTS: The concentration of cfDNA in GCF was found to be significantly elevated in the periodontitis group compared with the control group. Moreover, cfDNA concentration demonstrated a strong positive correlation with the periodontal clinical indicators. Immunofluorescence analysis revealed considerably increased percentage of fluorescence co-localization of cGAS, STING, and p-STING with the gingival fibroblast FSP-1 marker in the gingival tissues of the periodontitis group. The mRNA expression levels of cGAS, STING, IKK, NF-κB p65, IL-1β, IL-6,and TNF-α were significantly higher in the periodontitis group. In vitro stimulation of HGFs with GCF-derived cfDNA resulted in increased protein expression of cGAS and p-STING and considerably upregulated the mRNA expression levels of cGAS, STING, IKK, NF-κB p65, IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α in the healthy and periodontitis groups compared with the blank group. Correlation analysis showed that the concentration of cfDNA at the sampling site was positively correlated with the mRNA expression levels of cGAS, STING, NF-κB p65, and IL-6 in gingival tissues. CONCLUSIONS cfDNA concentrations in the GCF of patients with periodontitis are considerably elevated, and are associated with the activation of the cGAS-STING signaling pathway in HGFs. These findings suggest that cfDNA contributes to the progression of periodontitis.

With the continuous development of messenger RNA (mRNA) technology, mRNA-based drugs have shown broad application prospects in recent years. Since mRNA is easy to be degraded and difficult to enter cells directly, the mRNA delivery vectors have always been one of the focuses in the development of mRNA-based drugs. Although lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) have been widely used for the delivery of mRNA, they tend to accumulate in the liver, and repeated administration can easily induce inflammatory response which leads to tissue damage. Compared with LNPs, virus-like particles (VLPs) have the advantages of high biocompatibility and safety, being expected to offer new solutions for mRNA delivery. Based on the practical application requirements, this review summarized the research progress in VLPs according to the mRNA delivery steps: particle assembly, delivery into cells, and intracellular release. We hope to provide a basis and design ideas for the development of new VLPs as delivery vectors, promote the application of VLPs in mRNA delivery, and provide new possibilities for the research and application of mRNA-based therapeutics.

This study aims to investigate the potential of oncolytic nanoparticles encapsulating Coxsackievirus A21 (CVA21) full-genome mRNA (CVA21@ONP) to resurrect CVA21 and induce apoptosis in host cells, as well as the antitumor immune effects of CVA21@ONP in immunocompetent tumor-bearing BALB/c mice. We used lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) to encapsulate CVA21 full-genome mRNA, thus preparing CVA21@ONP. The killing efficacy of CVA21@ONP was determined by the plaque assay and cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8), and the apoptosis in HT29 and CT26-iRFP cells was evaluated by flow cytometry. Mice were administrated with CVA21@ONP at high and low doses intratumorally, and the growth of tumors expressing infra-red fluorescent protein (iRFP) was monitored. Additionally, the types and changes of immune cells in the spleen were analyzed by flow cytometry. The results demonstrated that CVA21@ONP successfully resurrected CVA21 in both HT29 and U87MG cells. The plaque assay revealed robust killing effects of CVA21@ONP against both human and murine cell lines, and flow cytometry results showed increased early and late apoptotic cells. Notably, intratumoral detection revealed significantly down-regulated expression of iRFP in both high- and low-dose CVA21@ONP groups. Flow cytometry results further indicated that CVA21@ONP treatment effectively reduced the levels of immunosuppressive cells, including myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) and regulatory T cells (Tregs), in the spleen, while enhancing T cell-dependent antitumor immune responses. These findings suggest that CVA21@ONP can replicate and survive extensively both in vitro and in vivo, activating the immune system of mice administrated with CVA21@ONP to target cells at the tumor site, thereby remodeling the tumor immune microenvironment and accelerating the suppression or even complete regression of tumors. The oncolytic performance of CVA21@ONP has been verified through intratumoral injection administration in this study, aimed at further exploring its therapeutic potential and promoting the development of the field of tumor treatment.

N⁶-methyladenosine (m⁶A) modification plays a critical role in cell cycle regulation, while the mechanism of m⁶A in regulating mitosis remains underexplored. Here, we found that the total m⁶A modification level in cells increased during mitosis by the liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry and m⁶A dot blot assays. Silencing methyltransferase-like 3 (METTL3) or METTL14 results in delayed mitosis, abnormal spindle assembly, and chromosome segregation defects by the immunofluorescence. By analyzing transcriptome-wide m⁶A targets in HeLa cells, we identified polo-like kinase 1 (PLK1) as a key gene modified by m⁶A in regulating mitosis. Specifically, through immunoblotting and RNA pulldown, m⁶A modification inhibits PLK1 translation via YTH N⁶-methyladenosine RNA binding protein 1, thus mediating cell cycle homeostasis. Demethylation of PLK1 mRNA leads to significant mitotic abnormalities. These findings highlight the critical role of m⁶A in regulating mitosis and the potential of m⁶A as a therapeutic target in proliferative diseases such as cancer.

Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) is one of the major animal infectious diseases in the world. All cloven-hoofed animals are susceptible to FMD. Vaccination is still the first choice for the prevention and control of FMD. mRNA vaccines can be rapidly designed, synthesized, and produced on a large scale in vitro, and they can induce effective protective immune responses, demonstrating the advantages of rapid development, easy preparation, and low biosafety risks. The design of untranslated regions is a key to enhancing the expression and efficacy of mRNA vaccines. In order to generate an efficient FMD mRNA vaccine, we designed three FMD P12A3C expression vectors with different untranslated regions and synthesized corresponding mRNAs. By comparing expression efficiency of these vectors and their mRNAs at different time points and in different cell lines, we found that the mRNA P12A3C-UTR3 had the best expression and universality. This study laid a foundation for the development of mRNA vaccines against FMD and provided a theoretical basis for the optimal sequence design of efficient mRNA.

Human alphaherpesvirus 2 (HSV-2) is the main pathogen resulting human genital herpes, which poses a major threat to the socio-economic development, while there is no effective vaccine. In this study, we developed a novel lipopolyplex (LPP)-delivered mRNA vaccine expressing the HSV-2 envelope glycoprotein gD and evaluated its immunogenicity in mice. The mRNA vaccine was prepared from the genetically modified gD mRNA synthesized in vitro combined with the LPP delivery platform and it was named gD-ORI mRNA. The expression of gD antigen in the mRNA vaccine was validated in vitro by Western blotting and indirect immunofluorescence assay, then the immune responses induced by this mRNA vaccine in mice were evaluated. The immunization with gD mRNA alone induced strong humoral and cellular immune responses in mice. Robust and long-lasting gD-specific IgG antibodies were detected in the mouse serum after booster immunization with gD-ORI mRNA. The immunized mice exhibited a Th1/Th2 balanced IgG response and robust neutralizing antibodies against HSV-2, and a clear dose-response relationship was observed. The gD-specific IgG antibodies were maintained in mice for a long time, up to 18 weeks post-booster immunization. At the same time, multifunctional gD-specific CD4⁺ and CD8⁺ T cells in vaccinated mice were detected by intracellular cytokine staining (ICS). This novel gD-expressing mRNA vaccine delivered by LPP induces strong and long-lasting immune responses in mice post booster immunization and has a promising prospect for development and application. This study provides scientific evidence and reference for the development of a new mRNA vaccine for HSV-2.

Objective To investigate the relationships of the expression of microRNA-487a-3p (miR-487a-3p) and A kinase-interacting protein 1 (AKIP1) mRNA in the endometrial cancer (EC) tissue with the patient survival within 5 years after surgery. Methods The EC tissue and adjacent normal tissue samples were collected from 130 EC patients who underwent surgical treatment at the Fourth Hospital of Shijiazhuang from September 2016 to April 2019.qRT-PCR was employed to determine the expression levels of miR-487a-3p and AKIP1 mRNA.The patients were followed up for 5 years after surgery to record the survival status.After removal of the patients who missed follow-up,78 surviving patients were recorded as the EC survival group,and 34 deceased patients were recorded as the EC death group.The dual luciferase reporter gene assay was conducted to verify the targeting relationship between miR-487a-3p and AKIP1 mRNA.Comparison was conducted for the expression levels of miR-487a-3p and AKIP1 mRNA between adjacent normal tissue and EC tissue,the expression levels of miR-487a-3p and AKIP1 mRNA in the EC tissue among patients with different clinical pathological parameters,and the clinical pathological parameters and the expression levels of miR-487a-3p and AKIP1 mRNA in the EC tissue between the EC survival group and the EC death group.The correlations of miR-487a-3p and AKIP1 mRNA levels in the EC tissue with the degree of tumor differentiation,International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage,lymph node metastasis,and depth of muscle invasion were analyzed.The relationships of miR-487a-3p and AKIP1 mRNA with patient prognosis and the risk factors affecting the survival of EC patients within 5 years after surgery were analyzed to evaluate the value of miR-487a-3p and AKIP1 mRNA levels in predicting the survival of EC patients within 5 years after survival. Results The EC tissue showed lower miR-487a-3p level (0.41±0.08 vs. 1.00±0.05;t=71.306,P<0.001) and higher AKIP1 mRNA level (2.35±0.37 vs. 1.00±0.03;t=41.465,P<0.001) than the adjacent normal tissue.The miR-487a-3p low expression group and AKIP1 mRNA high expression group had higher proportions of patients with low tumor differentiation,FIGO stage Ⅲ to Ⅳ,lymph node metastasis,and deep invasion of muscle layer than the miR-487a-3p high expression group and AKIP1 mRNA low expression group,respectively (all P<0.05).The results of dual luciferase reporter gene assay showed that the relative activity of luciferase in the miR-487a-3p small interfering RNA (siRNA)+AKIP1 mRNA-wild type (WT) group was higher than that in the miR-487a-3p empty vector+AKIP1 mRNA-WT group (2.85±0.19 vs. 1.00±0.04;t=23.339,P<0.001).There was no significant difference in the relative activity of luciferase between the miR-487a-3p empty vector+AKIP1 mRNA-mutant type (MUT) group and the miR-487a-3p siRNA+AKIP1 mRNA-MUT group (1.04±0.05 vs. 1.05±0.03;t=0.420,P=0.683).MiR-487a-3p in the EC tissue had negative correlations with AKIP1 mRNA,FIGO stage,lymph node metastasis,and depth of muscle invasion and a positive correlation with the degree of tumor differentiation (all P<0.001).AKIP1 mRNA had positive correlations with FIGO stage,lymph node metastasis,and depth of muscle invasion and a negative correlation with the degree of tumor differentiation (all P<0.001).The 5-year overall survival rates in the miR-487a-3p high expression group and AKIP1 mRNA low expression group (89.47% and 84.91%) were higher than those in the miR-487a-3p low expression group and AKIP1 mRNA high expression group (49.09% and 55.93%),respectively (both P<0.05).The EC death group had higher proportions of patients with low tumor differentiation,FIGO stage Ⅲ to Ⅳ,lymph node metastasis,and deep invasion of muscle layer,higher AKIP1 mRNA level in the EC tissue,and lower miR-487a-3p level than the EC survival group (all P<0.05).Low tumor differentiation,FIGO stage Ⅲ to Ⅳ,lymph node metastasis,deep invasion of muscle layer,low miR-487a-3p level,and high AKIP1 mRNA level were independent risk factors for the survival of EC patients within 5 years after surgery (all P<0.05).The area under curve (AUC) values of miR-487a-3p and AKIP1 mRNA alone (0.785 and 0.789,respectively) were lower than that of their combination (0.908) in predicting the survival of EC patients within 5 years after surgery (both P<0.05). Conclusion The EC tissue has a low miR-487a-3p level and a high AKIP1 mRNA level,both of which are correlated with clinicopathological parameters and prognosis and can be used to predict the survival of EC patients within 5 years after surgery.
