Objective: To determine the expression of melanoma-associated antigens D4(MAGED4) and SIRT7 in human glioma, and to analyze the potential effects of MAGED4 and SIRT7 on glioma cell proliferation. Methods: The MAGED4 and SIRT7 expression levels and their correlation were compared by the China glioma genome atlas(CGGA), human protein atlas(HPA), and UALCAN databases. Survival analysis, ROC curve analysis, and Cox regression analysis were used to predict the outcome of MAGED4 and SIRT 7 in glioma patients. Gene ontology(GO) and Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes(KEGG) signaling pathway enrichment analysis were used to explore the biological functions of MAGED4 and SIRT7 in glioma. Western blot experiment was used to investigate whether MAGED4 protein exerted its regulatory effects on the activity of the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway via SIRT7. The effect of MAGED4 on cell proliferation in glioma through SIRT7 was explored by CCK-8. Results: The analysis results of CGGA, UALCAN, and HPA databases showed that the expression levels of MAGED4 and SIRT7 in glioma tissues were higher than those in normal brain tissue, and the expression were positively correlated. Results of survival, ROC, and Cox analysis showed that high expression of MAGED4 and SIRT7 mRNA were risk factors for poor prognosis in glioma. Results of KEGG enrichment analysis showed that MAGED4 and SIRT7 were associated with the PI3K/AKT signaling in glioma, and Western blot results showed that MAGED4 activated the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway by regulating SIRT7. The CCK-8 results showed that MAGED4 promotes the proliferation of glioma cells through SIRT7. Conclusion MAGED4 and SIRT7 are highly expressed in glioma and associated with poor prognosis, and MAGED4 promotes glioma cell proliferation through activation of the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway by SIRT7.

As a potential vectored vaccine,Newcastle disease virus(NDV)has been subject to various studies for vaccine development,while relatively little research has outlined the immunomodulatory effect of the virus in antigen presentation.To elucidate the key inhibitory factor in regulating the interaction of infected dendritic cells(DCs)and T cells,DCs were pretreated with the NDV vaccine strain LaSota as an inhibitor and stimulated with lipopolysaccharide(LPS)for further detection by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA),flow cytometry,immunoblotting,and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction(qRT-PCR).The results revealed that NDV infection resulted in the inhibition of interleukin(IL)-12p40 in DCs through a p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase(MAPK)-dependent manner,thus inhibiting the synthesis of IL-12p70,leading to the reduction in T cell proliferation and the secretion of interferon-γ(IFN-γ),tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),and IL-6 induced by DCs.Consequently,downregulated cytokines accelerated the infection and viral transmission from DCs to T cells.Furthermore,several other strains of NDV also exhibited inhibitory activity.The current study reveals that NDV can modulate the intensity of the innate?adaptive immune cell crosstalk critically toward viral invasion improvement,highlighting a novel mechanism of virus-induced immunosuppression and providing new perspectives on the improvement of NDV-vectored vaccine.

【Objective】 To investigate the effect of transfusion-transmitted Zika virus (ZIKV) on the expression of non-coding circular RNA (hsa_circ_0001613) and the role of hsa_circ_0001613 in Zika virus replication. 【Methods】 Human adenocarcinomic alveolar basal epithelial cells (A549) were seeded on a 12-well plate at 1.8×10⁵/ well and infected with ZIKV at 0.05 MOI. The Total RNAs were isolated every day for 5 days after infection, and the relative expression level of hsa_circ_0001613 was detected by qRT-PCR. In addition, 10nM siRNA-hsa_circ_0001613 was transfected into 2×10⁵/ well A549 cells to specifically knock down the expression level of hsa_circ_0001613. 24h later, the cells were infected with ZIKV (MOI=0.05). Total RNAs were isolated at day 1-5 post-infection, proteins were extracted 96h post-infection. ZIKV replication, relative host antiviral gene expression, and interferon stimulated response element (ISRE) activity were tested using qRT-PCR, western blot and dual luciferase assay, respectively. 【Results】 The relative expression of hsa_circ_0001613 decreased significantly after 1-5 days of ZIKV infection. Knockdown of hsa_circ_0001613 inhibited ZIKV replication. Meanwhile, hsa_circ_0001613 knockdown significantly upregulated IFN-α/β and its downstream interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs) expression, also increased ISRE activity. 【Conclusion】 ZIKV infection significantly suppressed hsa_circ_0001613 expression in A4549 cells. Preliminary study indicated that hsa_circ_0001613 knockdown inhibited ZIKV replication possibly through activating type-Ⅰ IFN signaling pathway as showed by increased ISGs expression and ISRE activity.

【Objective】 To investigate the role of non-coding microRNA miR-16-5p in ZIKV replication and the underlying mechanism. 【Methods】 1×10⁵/mL HeLa cells were seeded in 24-well plate and infected with ZIKV(MOI=5). RNAs were harvested, and miR-16-5p expression levels were measured by qRT-PCR at 24, 48 and 72 hour post infection, respectively. HeLa cells were transfected with 20nM miR-16-5p mimic and infected with ZIKV(MOI=5) at 24h post transfection. RNAs were extracted and ZIKV RNA and several inflammation factors expression were tested using qRT-PCR at 48h post infection. HeLa cells were co-transfected with 1μg NFκB-luc and 10ng pRL-TK with 20nM miR-16-5p mimic, and then infected with ZIKV(MOI=5) for 24h before the luciferase expression was tested at 48h post infection. HeLa cells were transfected with 20nM miR-16-5p mimic and infected with ZIKV(MOI=5) at 24h post transfection, and cell apoptosis was assayed through flow cytometry. 【Results】 Compared with uninfected control, miR-16-5p expression was significantly decreased at 24h, 48h and 72h following ZIKV infection. MiR-16-5p over-expression inhibited ZIKV replication, while upregulated NFκB activity and inflammation factors expression compared with the negative mimic-transfected cells. MiR-16-5p overexpression also promoted HeLa cell apoptosis. 【Conclusion】 ZIKV infection downregulated intracellular miR-16-5p expression. Overexpression of miR-16-5p suppressed ZIKV infection. MiR-16-5p inhibited ZIKV replication and promoted cell apoptosis probably by activating NFκB pathway and stimulating inflammation factors expression.

Objective:To explore the application effect of pressure relief double knee pad in pressure injury in critically ill patients.Methods:A total of 635 patients who were admitted to Intensive Care Unit of Taizhou Hospital in Zhejiang Province from June 2020 to April 2021 were selected as the research objects by the convenient sampling method. They were divided into the control group ( n=315) and the experimental group ( n=320) by the random number table method. On the basis of the conventional lying position, patients in the control group placed the R-shaped pads on the back of the shoulder to the top of the pelvis, while patients in the experimental group slightly bent their lower limbs on the basis of the control group and placed it on the self-designed pressure relief double knee pad. The incidence of pressure injury, pressure index of sacrum and heel skin, the non-displacement rate of support appliances and the incidence of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in the two groups were evaluated. Results:The incidence of pressure injury of patients in the experimental group was 0.63% (2/320) , which was lower than 3.17% (10/315) in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05) . The pressure indexes of the sacrum and heel of the experimental group were respectively (66.10±13.43) and 0 mmHg, which were lower than (75.08±12.03) and (22.26±6.20) mmHg of the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05) . The non-displacement rate of support appliances in the experimental group was 89.62% (190/212) , which was higher than 52.63% (100/190) in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05) . There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of VTE between 2 groups ( P>0.05) . Conclusions:The use of pressure relief double knee pads can reduce the incidence of pressure injuries, the pressure of the skin of the sacrum and heel and increase the non-displacement rate of support appliances, which is worthy of clinical application.

Tubulin has been shown to be an effective target for the development of cytotoxic agents against prostate cancer. Previously, we reported that Lx2-32c is an anti-tubulin agent with high binding affinity to tubulin. In this study, we investigated the potential of Lx2-32c to act as an effective cytotoxic agent in the treatment of prostate cancer. MTT assays showed that Lx2-32c was cytotoxic to all tested prostate cancer cell lines. The Lx2-32c-treated cells typically exhibited a rounded morphology associated with the onset of apoptosis, as evidenced by immunocytochemical staining. Human prostate cancer cell lines treated with Lx2-32c arrest in the G2/M phase of the cell cycle and the treatment is associated with an increased ratio of cells in the sub-G0/G1 phase as determined by flow cytometry. Furthermore, expression of the cleaved form of poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase in prostate cancer cell lines treated with Lx2-32c was shown by Western blotting assay. Xenograft implants of LNCaP and PC3-derived tumors in nude mice showed that Lx2-32c treatment significant inhibited tumor growth with effects equivalent to those of docetaxel. These findings demonstrate the potential of Lx2-32c as a candidate antitumor agent for the treatment of prostate cancer.
