The aim of this study is to explore the immunogenicity of African swine fever virus p37 recombinant protein in mice.C57BL/6J mice were immunized subcutaneously in the abdomen using p37 recombinant protein as antigen.The second immunization was performed 21 d after the first immunization.Serum-specific antibody levels were detected by ELISA;serum cytokine levels were detected using a multifactor assay technique;mice splenic lymphocytes were isolated 7 d after sec-ondary immunization,and the number of splenic lymphocytes secreting IFN-γ after recombinant protein stimulation was detected by ELISpot;and the ratio of CD4+T cells to CD8+T cells was detected by flow cytometry.The results of indirect ELISA showed that p37 recombinant protein could stimulate mice to produce high levels of specific antibodies;ELISpot showed that p37 recom-binant protein could significantly stimulate splenic lymphocytes to produce IFN-γ(P＜0.001)and activate cellular immune responses;the results of flow cytometry showed that it could signifi-cantly stimulate the differentiation of T-lymphocytes to CD4+T-lymphocytes(P＜0.001).In ad-dition,serum levels of IL-2,IL-4,IFN-γ,and TNF-α immune-related cytokines were significantly higher after the second immunization.Immunization of mice with p37 recombinant protein induced strong humoral and cellular immune responses with good immunogenicity,providing reference for the subsequent epitope identification and functional study of p37 protein and the antigen screening of ASF mRNA vaccine.

In order to establish a highly efficient,convenient,and effective circular RNA(circRNA)vaccine preparation system,enhanced green fluorescent protein(EGFP)circRNA was constructed using permuted intron exon(PIE)strategy based on type Ⅰ introns.Then,circRNA circularization rates of RNA after in vitro transcription(IVT),primary circularization(IVC1),and secondary circularization(IVC2)were compared after purification.The constructed circRNA system was fur-ther applied to porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus(PRRSV),and two circRNAs based on PRRSV GP5 protein were constructed and developed for in vitro expression.Results showed that circularization rates and protein expression effects of EGFP circRNA in IVC1 RNA and IVC2 RNA were similar,but both were significantly better than those of IVT RNA.Purity of EGFP circRNA reached 74％,and purities of two PRRSV GP5 protein circRNAs constructed using this preparation system were 71％and 64％,respectively.Western blot and indirect immunofluo-rescence assay(IFA)results indicated that both of the PRRSV GP5 protein circRNAs were suc-cessfully expressed.The results demonstrated that an easy-to-operate,low-cost circRNA prepara-tion system with high circularization rate was successfully constructed.Two PRRSV GP5 protein circRNA vaccines were successfully prepared using this system and expressed efficiently,which provides a reference for the development of animal circRNA vaccines and novel candidate vaccines against PRRSV.

Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death worldwide,and hemodynamics plays a significant role in understanding the mechanisms of these diseases,predicting disease progression,and guiding treatment strategies.Traditional methods for obtaining personalized hemodynamic parameters in clinical settings have numerous limitations,while the rise of deep learning technology has brought new opportunities for their computation.This review focuses on the application of deep learning in obtaining hemodynamic parameters in clinical settings,covering its progress in computational fluid dynamics preprocessing,hemodynamic computation(data-driven and PINN method),and magnetic resonance anagiography.It analyzes the advantages and challenges of each method and discusses future development directions,aiming to provide a reference for research on obtaining hemodynamic parameters in clinical settings using artificial intelligence method.

African swine fever(ASF)is a highly contagious disease caused by the African swine fe-ver virus(ASFV).To evaluate the immunogenicity of the pp62(CP530R)protein of ASFV,the recombinant CP530R protein was expressed in HEK 293F cells transfected with the plasmid pMAL-Fc-CP530R.Six-week-old female C57BL/6J mice were immunized with 10 μg of purified pp62 protein via subcutaneous injection,followed by a booster immunization with the same dosage at 21 days(enhanced).The humoral and cellular immune responses in the mice were then assessed using ELISA,flow cytometry,and ELISpot assays.Western blot analysis confirmed that the pp62 protein was successfully expressed,with a molecular weight of approximately 118.5 kDa.ELISA results indicated that a high level of specific antibodies was detected in the immunized mice,with antibody titers reaching up to 1∶1 638 400 at 7 days after the secondary immunization.The pro-portion of CD8+T lymphocytes in the immunized mice increased compared to the control group(P＜0.05).Results from the Q-PlexTM Mouse Cytokine Screen demonstrated that the secretion levels of IFN-γ,IL-2,IL-4,and IL-10 in serum were significantly upregulated in the immunized mice following secondary immunization(P＜0.001).In summary,these findings indicate that the pp62 protein can significantly stimulate both humoral and cellular immunity in mice,laying the groundwork for further studies on the function of the ASFV pp62 protein and the identification of novel vaccine antigens for ASF.

Acute hematogenous osteomyelitis (AHO) is the type of its kind diagnosed most frequently in pediatric patients. In the past decade, the incidence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus infections has increased in children. The more complex situation of infections may lead additionally to deep vein thrombosis (DVT), septic pulmonary embolism, pneumonia, empyema, endocarditis, bacteremia and septic shock. Hence, hospital stays are often lengthy and patients often critically ill. Since delayed appropriate therapy can lead to chronic osteomyelitis, as well as impairments in bone growth and development, early accurate diagnosis and prompt initiation of appropriate treatment remain central principles in the evaluation and treatment of AHO. Therefore, care of children with AHO inevitably requires an organized and interdisciplinary approach to reach timely, comprehensive and accurate diagnoses so that effective treatment may be carefully planned and enacted with subsequent monitoring of the child until clinical resolution is achieved. This review is devoted exclusively to the management of AHO in children, providing an update on the current understanding of existing evidence and future directions to improve care for pediatric AHO.

Diabetic foot ulcer is a major complication of diabetes which is the most expensive and the most difficult to deal with and leads to a high rate of non-traumatic amputation.Diabetic foot osteomyelitis results from aggravation of diabetic foot ulcer.Unfortunately,the current therapeutic outcomes of diabetic foot osteomyelitis are still unsatisfactory because of its difficult diagnosis and special treatment protocols which are entirely different from those for conventional soft tissue infections.This paper summarizes the latest advances achieved in diagnosis and treatment of diabetic foot osteomyelitis.
