To explore the application effect of host restriction factors(HRFs)in the development of antiviral gene drugs,this study based on the"common pathway of viral infection"and"host innate immunity HRFs",the genes of three antiviral HRFs,namely cholesterol-25-hydroxylase(CH25H),interferon-induced transmembrane protein(IFITM3)and interferon-stimulated gene 15(ISG15)were fused and expressed using pCK vectors to construct antiviral gene drugs.The fusion expression gene sequence CH25H-IFITM3-ISG15(C Ⅱ)was constructed by linking the gene cod-ing sequences of these three HRFs through the cleavage peptide coding sequence.Subsequently,the C Ⅱ sequence was amplified by PCR,ligated to the pCK expression vector,and the recombinant plasmid was transformed,identified,and extracted to obtain a candidate biodrug based on the DNA expression system,which was named pCK-CⅡ.Then,the recombinant plasmid was transfected in-to HEK 293T cells,and the expression of three antiviral proteins was successfully detected by Western blot.To clarify the antiviral effect of pCK-C Ⅱ at the cellular level,pCK-C Ⅱ was trans-fected into HEK 293 cells and BHK-21 cells,respectively.Twenty-four hours later,the BHK-21 cells were infected with vesicular stomatitis virus expressing green fluorescent protein(VSV-GFP),12 h later,the cells were observed under a fluorescence microscope and detected by flow cy-tometry;HEK 293 cells were inoculated with H3N2 subtype influenza virus,and the expression of H3N2 subtype influenza virus nuclear proteins was detected after 12 h using Western blot.The re-sults showed that transient transfection of pCK-C Ⅱ plasmid could significantly reduce the fluores-cence level of cells and the expression of nuclear protein of H3N2 subtype influenza virus in infec-ted cells.These results indicated that pCK-C Ⅱ had an inhibitory effect on the infection of VSV-GFP and H3N2 subtypes of influenza viruses after transient transfection of cells.

High mobility group box protein 1(HMGB1)is one of the most widely expressed protein member in the HMGs family,which is well known for its involvement in the body inflammatory response.Previous researches have found that it plays a significant role in cell migration,immune identification and neuroprotection.Spinal cord injury is a disease that causes severe damage to the nervous system,and neural circuits are disrupted after a spinal cord injury,which leads to many conditions including ischemia and hypoxia,inflammatory responses,demyelinating lesions,and glial scar formation that are detrimental to nerve regeneration and repair,making it one of the most difficult diseases to treat in the modern spinal surgery field.HMGB1 is upregulated after spinal cord injury,thereby regulating neuroinflam-matory responses,and participating in the neuronal apoptosis,promoting neuronal regeneration,and inducing neural stem cell differentiation and migration,which plays an important role in the process of neural function recovery.This paper summarizes the structure and function of HMGB1,as well as its role in spinal cord injury,in order to provide direction for founding therapeutic target for neurological function recovery after spinal cord injury.

As the first defense of respiratory system,airway epi-thelial cells(AECs)play an important role in separating the re-spiratory internal and external environment.They are essential for the natural immune function.Small airway lesions are an im-portant early pathology of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD),when AECs are exposed to harmful particles or gases for a long time,the epithelial barrier is damaged,and the signa-ling pathways which involved in differentiation,repair,and in-flammatory are disordered,resulting in epithelial cell cycle stag-nation and accelerated aging.A number of studies have sugges-ted that AECs of COPD patients express high levels of aging markers,suggesting that senescence of AECs is closely related to COPD.This review discusses the potential mechanisms of AECs senescence in COPD,the impact of AECs senescence on the de-velopment and severity of the disease,and highlights potential targets for modulating cellular senescence in airway epithelium as a therapeutic approach in COPD.

Chronic visceral pain is a persistent and debilitating condition arising from dysfunction or sensitization of the visceral organs and their associated nervous pathways. Increasing evidence suggests that imbalances in central nervous system function play an essential role in the progression of visceral pain, but the exact mechanisms underlying the neural circuitry and molecular targets remain largely unexplored. In the present study, the ventral tegmental area (VTA) was shown to mediate visceral pain in mice. Visceral pain stimulation increased c-Fos expression and Ca²⁺ activity of glutamatergic VTA neurons, and optogenetic modulation of glutamatergic VTA neurons altered visceral pain. In particular, the upregulation of NMDA receptor 2A (NR2A) subunits within the VTA resulted in visceral pain in mice. Administration of a selective NR2A inhibitor decreased the number of visceral pain-induced c-Fos positive neurons and attenuated visceral pain. Pharmacology combined with chemogenetics further demonstrated that glutamatergic VTA neurons regulated visceral pain behaviors based on NR2A. In summary, our findings demonstrated that the upregulation of NR2A in glutamatergic VTA neurons plays a critical role in visceral pain. These insights provide a foundation for further comprehension of the neural circuits and molecular targets involved in chronic visceral pain and may pave the way for targeted therapies in chronic visceral pain.

Nipah virus (NiV) and related viruses form a distinct henipavirus genus within the Paramyxoviridae family. NiV continues to spillover into the humans causing deadly outbreaks with increasing human-bat interaction. NiV encodes the large protein (L) and phosphoprotein (P) to form the viral RNA polymerase machinery. Their sequences show limited homologies to those of non-henipavirus paramyxoviruses. We report two cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) structures of the Nipah virus (NiV) polymerase L-P complex, expressed and purified in either its full-length or truncated form. The structures resolve the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) and polyribonucleotidyl transferase (PRNTase) domains of the L protein, as well as a tetrameric P protein bundle bound to the L-RdRp domain. L-protein C-terminal regions are unresolved, indicating flexibility. Two PRNTase domain zinc-binding sites, conserved in most Mononegavirales, are confirmed essential for NiV polymerase activity. The structures further reveal anchoring of the P protein bundle and P protein X domain (XD) linkers on L, via an interaction pattern distinct among Paramyxoviridae. These interactions facilitate binding of a P protein XD linker in the nucleotide entry channel and distinct positioning of other XD linkers. We show that the disruption of the L-P interactions reduces NiV polymerase activity. The reported structures should facilitate rational antiviral-drug discovery and provide a guide for the functional study of NiV polymerase.
