Objective:To investigate the inhibitory effect of tripartite motif-containing 25 (TRIM25) on the replication of Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) in cells and its molecular mechanism.Methods:Human glioma cells (U251 cells) and Kunming mice were infected with JEV, and then the cells and brain tissue samples were collected. The transcription levels of six TRIM genes were detected by real-time PCR, and the expression of TRIM25 in cells was detected by Western blot. U251 and A549 cells overexpressed with TRIM25 and U251 cells knocked out with TRIM25 gene were constructed. Cells were infected with JEV, and the replication of JEV was detected by viral plaque assay, real-time PCR and Western blot. The interaction of TRIM25 with viral proteins was investigated by co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP) and indirect immunofluorescence assay. The expression of IFN-β in overexpressed TRIM25 cells was detected by real-time PCR and ELISA.Results:JEV infection promoted the expression of TRIM25 in cells and mouse brain tissues. TRIM25 overexpression restricted JEV replication in U251 and A549 cells, while TRIM25 knockout enhanced JEV replication. TRIM25 overexpression upregulated the level of IFN-β in cells. TRIM25 interacted with JEV capsid protein and promoted the degradation of capsid protein.Conclusion:TRIM25 can inhibit the replication of JEV in cells by upregulating IFN-β and promoting the degradation of JEV C protein.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors influencing mortality in neonates undergoing continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT).Methods:This retrospective study included 34 neonates with a corrected age of≤28 days who received CRRT at the Affiliated Children's Hospital of Xiangya School of Medicine, Central South University, from January 2019 to December 2023. The neonates were divided into a mortality group ( n=16) and a survival group ( n=18) based on whether they died during CRRT. Pre-CRRT blood biochemical indices, general condition, CRRT treatment modes, parameters, and related complications were analyzed using t-tests, Wilcoxon signed-rank tests, and Chi-square tests. Logistic stepwise regression analysis was used to screen for risk factors associated with CRRT mortality. Results:The mortality rate among the 34 neonates was 48.6% (16/34), with a median CRRT age of 17 days (range: 2-33 days). Eleven neonates (32.3%) were preterm, with the youngest gestational age being 27 weeks and the lowest weight before CRRT initiation being 1 700 g. The mortality group had lower urine output 6-12 hours before CRRT initiation and lower critical illness scores compared to the survival group [0.05 (0.02-1.00) ml/(kg·h) vs. 0.50 (0.20-1.05) ml/(kg·h), (64.50±7.10) scores vs. (77.67±3.65) scores, Z or t values were 10.97 and 3.91, respectively]. However, the vasoactive inotropic score (VIS), proportion of coma, and levels of blood potassium, alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, blood ammonia, blood lactic acid, and activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) were higher in the mortality group compared to the survival group [ (86.88±15.80) scores vs. (55.56±24.31) scores, 11/16 vs. 1/18, (7.02±1.73) mmol/L vs. (5.88±1.53) mmol/L, 274.55(132.50-664.98) U/L vs. 31.10(19.03-110.70) U/L, 688.20 (449.73-3 618.13) U/L vs. 96.65 (44.15-439.00) U/L, 232.75 (70.33-1 310.85) μmol/L vs.77.70 (49.78-919.05) μmol/L, (11.17±3.36) U/L vs. (7.99±2.67) U/L, and (99.57±39.74) s vs. (60.97±31.25) s, with t, χ2, or Z values of-4.39, 14.81,-2.03,-2.72,-11.81,-3.89,-3.06, and-3.17, respectively] (all P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis revealed that pre-treatment VIS value ( OR=1.150, 95% CI: 1.035-1.278), and blood ammonia level ( OR=1.004, 95% CI: 1.002-1.009) were independent risk factors for mortality (both P<0.05). Conclusions:Neonatal CRRT mortality is associated with pre-treatment VIS scores and blood ammonia levels. Attention should be paid to a rapid decreases in urine output, the intensity of vasopressor support, and elevated levels of blood ammonia, blood lactic acid, transaminases, and APTT at the initiation of treatment.
