ObjectiveTo perform a genome-wide association study of rubella virus vaccine strain BRD-Ⅱ, so as to fully grasp the sequence characteristics of this genome. MethodsSecond-generation sequencing method was used to conduct the whole-genome sequencing on the vaccine strain BRD-Ⅱ, and the affinity tree of this genome with some vaccine strains and wild-type rubella virus strains was analyzed using the maximum likelihood method. The average genetic distance of nucleic acid sequence of each vaccine strain protein was determined. And homology comparison of structural proteins of each rubella vaccine strain, plus the comparison between this genome with the AY258323.1 genome sequence, were conducted to analyze the homology of E1 protein between the wild-type rubella virus reference strain and vaccine strain BRD-Ⅱ. ResultsThe sequencing results showed that the BRD-Ⅱ strain was a single-molecule single-stranded positive-strand ribonucleic acid (RNA), composed of 9 778 nucleotides, with a GC content of 69.35 %. The C protein was composed of 300 amino acids, the E2 glycoprotein was composed of 282 amino acids, and the E1 glycoprotein was composed of 481 amino acids. The results of preliminary analysis showed that the average genetic distances of nucleic acid sequences were 0.066 700 for the P150 protein, 0.061 933 for the P90 protein, 0.057 850 for the C protein, 0.068 167 for the E2 protein, and 0.068 833 for the E1 protein, respectively. The amino acid sequences in the E2 protein and E1 protein regions of the two BRD-Ⅱ strains did not change, confirming the conserved regions of the E1 protein by comparison. ConclusionThe sequence characteristics of the genome are clarified, which have laid a broad foundation for the subsequent detection of the genetic stability of the main antigen genes.

Objective To investigate the epidemiological characteristics and control measures of dengue fever in Zhongshan City in 2024, so as to provide insights into optimization of dengue fever control strategies in the city. Methods Data pertaining to dengue fever cases in Zhongshan City in 2024 were collected from the Infectious Disease Reporting System of China Disease Prevention and Control Information System, and the epidemiological characteristics of the cases were analyzed using a descriptive statistical method. The density of Aedes albopictus mosquito was monitored across all 23 townships (subdistricts) using Breteau index (BI) and mosquito ovitrap index (MOI) at midmonth each month from March to December 2024. In addition, the climatic characteristics, case reporting patterns, and corresponding control measures were analyzed during different phases of dengue fever epidemics in Zhongshan in 2024. Furthermore, real-time quantitative reverse transcription PCR (RT-qPCR) assay was employed to serotype the dengue virus among local dengue fever cases with unknown sources of infections. The dengue virus envelope (E) gene was sequenced using Sanger sequencing among dengue fever cases without apparent epidemiological links. A phylogenetic tree was constructed using the neighbor-joining method to infer major transmission chains during the dengue fever epi demics. Results A total of 952 dengue fever cases were reported in Zhongshan City in 2024, including 879 local cases, 57 domestically imported cases from other regions, and 16 overseas imported cases, representing the largest outbreak in nearly two decades. The first local dengue fever case was reported on July 5, and the last one was detected on December 19, with all townships and subdistricts affected. Mosquito monitoring data indicated that both MOI and BI rose rapidly from March to May, and then remained at high levels with fluctuations, and began to decline in October. The dengue fever epidemic was categorized into five distinct phases in Zhongshan, including non-epidemic, pre-epidemic, early-epidemic, peak, and receding stages. During the pre-epidemic and early-epidemic phases, key measures included enhancing sensitivity of case detection, implementing isolation and treatment of hospitalized cases, and carrying out standardized vector control measures in affected communities. In the peak phase, the strategy shifted towards targeted mosquito control in key communities and clinical rescue and treatment emphasized on “preventing severe cases and deaths”. Among 481 local cases with unknown sources of infections, RT-qPCR assay revealed that 68.8% (331/481) were infected with dengue virus type I and 31.2% (150/481) with type II among local dengue fever cases in Zhongshan City in 2024. Phylogenetic analysis revealed two major transmission chains: one originating from imported cases within Guangdong Province around Zhongshan City, and another from cases imported from Malaysia. Late detection of local dengue fever cases contributed to widespread community outbreaks. Conclusions The 2024 dengue fever epidemic in Zhongshan City was of considerable scale, which was primarily driven by imported cases from overseas and surrounding regions, leading to local community outbreaks. The epidemic began in early July, increased rapidly during August and September, peaked in October, and subsequently declined, with a trend consistent with the average pattern observed in previous high-incidence years. By implementing differentiated control measures tailored to each phase of the epidemic, the local transmission of dengue fever was successfully contained in Zhongshan City in 2024.

Gastric cancer is a common malignant tumor with complex pathological mechanisms， a low early diagnosis rate， and a high mortality rate. However， surgical treatment， targeted therapy， and chemotherapy have their treatment limitations and toxic side effects. Therefore， exploring the pathogenesis and mechanism of gastric cancer and finding effective treatment methods are important. At present， researches has found that tumor epithelial cells exhibit individual differences in molecular characteristics and exhibit metabolic heterogeneity that affects cell phenotype and function. The interaction between metabolites and cytokines can inhibit the formation of the tumor immune microenvironment and promote malignant progression. Therefore， metabolic reprogramming is regarded as a key feature of tumors and plays an important role in the process of tumor occurrence and development. However， the continuous deterioration of gastric cancer may be closely related to changes in the energy metabolism of cancer cells. Gastric cancer cells may regulate the dysregulation of synthesis or decomposition pathways such as glucose metabolism， amino acid metabolism， lipid metabolism， and nucleotide metabolism and activate associated signaling pathways， key proteins， and genes， leading to proliferation， invasion， and metastasis of cancer cells. In recent years， there has been a close relationship between the effective intervention by traditional Chinese medicine in gastric cancer and the regulation of metabolic reprogramming. There has been some progress in the intervention research on effective ingredients and formulas of traditional Chinese medicine for cancer. This article summarized existing Chinese and foreign literature on how gastric cancer cells affect disease progression by regulating their related metabolic networks， such as glucose metabolism， amino acid metabolism， lipid metabolism， and nucleotide metabolism， as well as how effective ingredients and formulas of traditional Chinese medicine enhance anti-tumor effects through targeted metabolism. It reviewed metabolic reprogramming intervention in gastric cancer， providing a reference for research on metabolic reprogramming regulation by traditional Chinese medicine and new targets and strategies for the treatment and prognosis of gastric cancer.
